The only thing separating Elizabeth Swann from her happily ever after with Will Turner is time. Once Elizabeth finds the chest containing Davy Jones' heart, she and her fiancé will be free from their capital punishment - and free to have the life they have always wanted together.
Elizabeth's journey brings her to Tortuga, where she joins the crew of an old friend, Jack Sparrow. During her quest with the (in)famous Captain, Elizabeth becomes increasingly unsure of the wedding - but surely it's just nerves?
The young couple splits ways to complete their quests, and with Will absent, Elizabeth and Jack begin to bond. Jack Sparrow's freedom is refreshing - and addictive. It's also something she realizes that does not come with her marriage to Will.
As Davy Jones' chest nears, so does her wedding date. Will Turner offers a tempting life of certainty - but Jack has made Elizabeth feel something different over the last few months; something new... something curious. Soon Elizabeth has to make her hardest decision yet; is she willing to risk everything for her freedom?
