Pirates of the Caribbean: 'The Swordsmith and the Pirate[...]' by Elizabeth Turner by Gloria Mundi
'The Swordsmith and the Pirate: A Romance of the Spanish Main' by Elizabeth Turner (Will/Elizabeth, Will/Jack | PG13 | 1,148 words | sequel is Happy Endings) has Elizabeth writing stories and Will finding out about his wife's hobby. Absolutely hilarious. Because of course Elizabeth's a secret slasher! And Will and Elizabeth make a happy couple. Will's adorable. And the last line makes me wibble.
Excerpt:
"Pirate stories," he said at last, voice thick with ... was that amusement? "You've been writing pirate stories."
Elizabeth's expression must have shown her alarm, for Will smiled at her reassuringly.
"How long have you been writing these ... these ..."
"Fantasies?" suggested Elizabeth demurely. "Ever since I first started to read about pirates. You know I've always found them fascinating! And the books I found were never ..." She swallowed. "I used to write them back in England, too, before we came here."
Will raised an eyebrow. "You've been writing ... romances ... since you were a little girl?" He made it sound wicked, and she supposed it was.
"They weren't always like that," she said honestly. "Not so --"
"Detailed?" said Will, grinning. He turned a couple of pages. "So, Mrs Turner. You have a vivid imagination."
