Aiden Payne is a drifter. His only memory of home is a mysterious tattoo. While working as a gold miner, his path crosses with Amelia Rose Wagner, a sheltered girl in love with navigation and the stars. After a fatal mistake, the two find themselves running from the law.  Fleeing may be their only escape, yet finding a way out might prove impossible.

Hundreds of miles away, Jade Harris' father and crewmates have been murdered at the hands of an escaped pirate. When a bounty hunter after the same pirate offers her a job in exchange for the remains of the ship, Jade accepts. As she repairs her vessel, old enemies and secretive newcomers make her question everything she knew about her father and the attack.

Now, these three strangers must unbury the secrets of their shared pasts, but memory proves to be a very fickle thing.

1670, Caribbean Sea. She's the daughter of a legendary pirate. He's a Spanish captain. Their countries are at war. Their fathers killed each other. And they were destined to follow on their steps. But sometimes destiny isn't written in stone: it's written in the deep blue of the sea. A story full of adventures at sea, set in the thick of the war between Spain and the pirates for control over the New World. And a different look at the challenge of being a woman in a world ruled by men with an iron fist. At age fifteen, all Marina dreams of is sailing, but women are banned from the ships berthing in Tortuga. And when she finally makes it, her ship is attacked by the champion of the Spanish Armada, a young captain fighting pirates to avenge his father. That battle pushes Marina back to the sea, yearning to take it back on the young captain, who turns out to be no other than the son of her father's sworn enemy. All they want is to kill each other, and they'll sail the Caribbean Sea tirelessly until they come across each other. An encounter they were destined to since they were born, and that will change their lives forever.

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18

It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.

Chasing Rainbows 🤍 Singto/Non by WillowsProse

A SingtoNon ghost ship fan fiction ~ The Koh Samui Trilogy ~ Book Two ~ Ian Banks had travelled to Thailand after his best friend had called him to tell him his long time bias, actor and singer Phikhuam would be staying at his fiancés holiday resort on the tropical island of Koh Samui. Caught up in the excitement he had packed quickly only to have second thoughts on the flight, he was too old for this nonsense, he should be focusing on something tangible instead of chasing rainbows. Phikhuam had fractured his wrist during the filming of his latest drama and he needed to take some time off work, the last person he expected to see was a young man whom he had met in London many months ago then later at the wedding of Kiri Junphanatat. He was definitely interested so when he discovered that Ian was a nurse he jumped at the chance to ask for assistance but maybe he'd been mistaken when he thought that Ian liked him because he didn't seem very eager to help, on the contrary he was looking for any excuse to avoid him. My Fictional Cast ... Singto as Phikhuam Non as Ian Banks Mew as Kiri Junphanatat Gulf as Kan Junphanatat Kaownah as Lon Ryou Turbo as Andrew Boone (Andy) Boat Napat as Patrick Slater (Champ) Lee Thanat as Liam Khoombs Cooper as Tap Sittanason Poy as Chet Thinsappapong Bright as Chit Win as Paitoon Shane as Shanut (Nut) Shenyapatchol This story will contain mature language and at least one chapter containing a mature scene of a sexual nature.
