ELINOR TAYLOR NEVER ASKED for adventure. As a maid to the governor's daughter, Elizabeth Swann, her days were filled with tidying gowns, running errands, and ensuring propriety in the unforgiving gaze of high society. But when Elizabeth is abducted by the fearsome crew of the Black Pearl, Elinor's world is upended. Refusing to stand idly by, she sets her sights on an unlikely alliance with two equally desperate and reckless men: the dashing blacksmith Will Turner, whose love for Elizabeth fuels his determination, and the unpredictable pirate Captain Jack Sparrow, who seeks to reclaim his stolen ship and settle a vendetta older than the curse itself.

AS ELINOR EMBARKS on this harrowing journey, she must navigate a treacherous world of stormy seas, cutthroat betrayals, and dark magic that defies understanding. She is no swordsman or swashbuckler, but her resourcefulness, tenacity, and courage prove invaluable as the trio faces ghostly foes and long-buried secrets. Each step closer to the Pearl tests Elinor's resolve and challenges her to confront the limits of her loyalty—not just to Elizabeth, but to herself.

CAUGHT BETWEEN DUTY AND DESIRE, Elinor finds herself swept into a life she could have never imagined. From clashing wits with Sparrow's mercurial cunning to earning Turner's trust, she learns that survival in a pirate's world means redefining the rules of who she is and what she stands for. But with the curse of the Black Pearl threatening to drag them all into the abyss, Elinor must decide how far she is willing to go for a friend—and whether she has the strength to face the darkness that lies ahead.

WITH THE ODDS STACKED against them and time running out, Elinor, Will, and Jack must brave the perilous waters of both the Caribbean and their own hearts. What begins as a rescue mission becomes a voyage of defiance and redemption, where the line between hero and rogue blurs, and even the most unassuming of hearts proves capable of extraordinary courage.

WHOA WOULD YOU LOOK AT that! I'm finally back after a super long writing hiatus to start a completely new fic instead of working on my other published works! Though I promise that this is not me giving up on my other fics- I just had an idea that I needed to do something with, and voila: I'm now writing a Pirates of the Caribbean fanfic with a twist. I honestly don't know where my revamped appreciation for the Pirates of the Caribbean movies came from, but I'm not complaining about it either way because those movies were such a huge part of my childhood and both awakened my love and appreciation for women (more specifically, keira knightley) and pirates! Which, fun fact- I was born on 'talk like a pirate' day!

I'M GENUINELY SO EXCITED TO start writing this and to finally bring all my ideas to fruition- which, there are so many ideas that I have for this fic, but all I have to show for it is a wicked playlist that embodies all the characters' relationships and the plot of the story, and a very short planning document that probably wouldn't make sense to anybody else but me. Just a heads up that this fic does not have any established relationships, but feel free to vote on who you would like to end up together based on chemistry throughout the story! Anyways, I hope that you enjoy this fic and I can't thank you all enough for just being here and reading this sentence. I don't mind silent readers one bit, but I'd still love it if you can just add a vote if you enjoy a chapter or even add this to your reading list. Thanks again, and this is Sophie signing off!
