Of Songs and Saltwater

A gender-swapped retelling of The Little Mermaid with a swoony male siren and a fiery Duke’s daughter.


Meryn has always been drawn to the sea and the freedom it offers from her father’s strict rule. But one day, after escaping her maid and guards, she steals a boat to enjoy a small taste of the waters—when an unnatural storm capsizes her ship and tosses her in the unruly waves.


Fivrial’s heart has ached for Meryn ever since they were children, but he never expected their meeting to end in a memory wipe—saving her from the panic of seeing his tail. When he returns to the sea as a siren, his heart is torn, leading him to seek the aid of the sea witch who can grant him human legs. As he washes ashore, Meryn stumbles upon him, and his time begins: make her confess her love within three full moons or return to the sea forever.


Through battles, secrets, and ultimatums, Meryn and Fivrial must decide what they want to fight for. Is true love honestly worth the cost?
