From the author page of Neil Gaiman's site at hoddersystems, which has a really annoying and jerky slow flash intro...

"Imagine," he says. "Mermaids massaging you. Where do you keep them? In a fish tank? The floor must be very wet. And of course, they'll be topless because mermaids alway are, but there can be no hanky-panky because they only have fishy tails down below. And how do you catch them?"

I refer Neil to Francesca Lia Block's collection Nymph, esp. the first story called "Mer." Lovely, as is the rest of the book. Very well-written erotica with more than a bit of the fantastic. It has a Tori Amos-like charm and sensibility to it, as do her Dangerous Angel books.
