Tail
Ivy's never met a merman. In fact, she thought it was just a rumor that they lived in the lake under the school. When she finally meets one, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. Though they can't communicate, she meets him every day. Separated by a wall of glass, she finds there are ways to talk without speaking. But will that be enough for Ivy? Or will she have to venture into the depths of the lake before she can be fully satisfied?
EXCERPT:
My fingers went to the knot on my tie. I undid it, slowly, my eyes on his.
I didn’t bother to flirt this time. I didn’t prance around or put on a show. I simply took my clothes off, dropping them in a pile on the stone floor. He kept eye contact with me the whole time, eyes never straying from my face, though his breathing quickened.
This time I didn’t stop at my bra.
When it joined the rest of my clothing on the floor, I paused a moment, letting him look at me.
I felt naked and exposed—I was naked and exposed—and it seemed as if I could feel his gaze like a physical thing, brushing over every inch of my skin and raising goosebumps on my flesh...
This 10,000 word novelette is intended for mature audiences.

This was the first merman book I've read in this genre, and it was pretty good...
(random thought: when I bought this on amazon, it had a different cover, it was called Horn, instead of Tail, weird...)
