Running away was all part of Fiona's plan. It was sort of a life or death situation for her and in the heat of the moment she fled. Getting kidnapped by a pirate ship was NOT part of the flawless plan...or so she thought. Now, stranded in the middle of the Atlantic, she has no choice but to live under a pirate's rule or sinking in the ocean. Taking disguise as a man, Fiona is forced to do things she has never done before and must accept the fact that from that point forward her life was never going to be the same.
Keeping disguise as a man is much harder than it looks to be. As she struggles to stay under cover and in whirlwind of pirate battles, somehow, Fiona ends up aboard the Charles another ship with a captain that goes by the name of Liam. Thinking she was finally saved, she quickly realizes that she is in more trouble aboard the Charles than the pirate ship before. Now, instead of just the danger of getting discovered that she is merely a female, her heart is also on the line.
Can Fiona survive living a pirate's life and making it safely to the Americas or will everything she's worked hard for shatter, including her heart.

Venture to Uncertainty (#1)
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.

AISLIN | I
❝You are just a WOMAN. You can't fight in this war, you're weak. It will chew you up and spit you out, you can't keep up with us.❞ The commander scoffed with a low chuckle. A couple of men behind him chuckled as well. Evander's gaze burned into the side of my head, awaiting my reply like everyone else. ❝If I can't fight, then why did the Queen herself ask me to take over your job for the time being?❞ I asked, pulling my dagger out from its sheath, taping on Commander Leland's breastplate with the tip, ❝Careful who you call weak Commander because you clearly don't know who I am.❞ He crossed his arms defensively, ❝Oh yeah? And who are you?❞ I leaned forward lightly, ❝The name's Aislin.❞ ________________ Her name was well-known throughout the kingdoms. Some believed she was just an urban legend, while others thought she was real but some believed she didn't exist at all. She was labeled "the infamous warrior" because she was known for destroying kingdoms with her bare hands. She was a woman, but she set a strong example for tens of thousands of men. She disappeared after a horrific accident. Years had passed, and she had led a life free of violence. After all those years, she was itching to return to the battlefield. Her wish was granted when Queen Aria of Kavan herself approached her and informed her of the events unfolding in her kingdom, requesting her assistance. A sexist Commander, a caring queen, a slacker army, new friendships, and an intriguing yet hothead prince are among the challenges she faces. She's got a lot to handle. --- REVIEWS (more inside) "If you put equal portions of action, adventure, comedy, mystery, romance & feminism in a ninja blender and set it to high power, YOU 👏 GET👏 AISLIN👏.

His Dangerous Ways✔️
CLICK THE LINK IN MY BIO FOR EARLY ACCESS CHAPTERS ON INKITT!! *** "Calm down," he said as he brushed the broken glass off his forehead. "Calm down?" I shrieked. "You're telling me to calm down after a man just tried to kill us in the middle of the night and is now laying right over there dead!" I said pointing to his limp, none moving body. "He's fine," River said as if it were no big deal. "I didn't hit him that hard." I looked at him in pure shock. What was wrong with him? "Now come on," he said grabbing my arm and leading me away from the man. I looked at him. Sweat had formed all over his forehead and a look of urgency was written all over his face. Blood was now leaking from the nasty cut on his forehead and looked like it would need some serious tending. I looked between him and the guy laying on the ground. I'm probably going to regret this later. I thought to myself as I took a deep breath before nodding and without a second thought, he continued pulling me away. *** Cat was your average girl; she maintained good grades, loved friends, and wanted to become a famous dancer, but her life changes when she literally runs into the biggest bad boy in her school: River Parker. Aka, the boy who doesn't care about anything or anyone except his very few close friends, including Cat's best friend Liam. But little did she know that her 'run in' would throw her into a life of drugs, gambling, near-death experiences, and so much more. And to make things worse, she might be falling in love with him and all his dangerous ways.

Plan C (Completed)
He watched my birth; we would crawl around following each other. We'd have sleepovers and giggle all night; he was my first kiss, at the age of five. He, Liam Davidson, was my best friend. It was true, every single detail, all of our adventures and games stored in my mind or picture. But sadly all things good have to end eventually, and for me, they ended all too quickly for my liking, but hopefully fates on my side and brings us back together. But if all else fails...Going undercover and getting close to him might just be 'Plan C' Because he, Liam Davidson, is my best friend and only God can stop me, but even if he tries, I am not going down without a fight. ---------------------------------------------------------- Meet Lively Teresa Adams, cute, sweet, smart, clumsy, hot and 100% popular With that loving smile lit up on her very well structured face, and with her sassy comebacks and sarcastic words she's definitely a Ms Queen Bee, but unlike other Queen Bee's she's actually nice and doesn't even know she's popular. But the only thing she really wants is...Liam Davidson. Meet Liam Davidson, sexy as hell, hot as the sun and as cool as an iceberg, this little badass is an all-out trouble maker, at school people move out of the way for him they treat him like a king, but all he really wants to do is get back his childhood best friend...Lively Adams. They both want each other but don't know it, so when Lively dresses up like a complete hottie (not that she already isn't) and enrols into Liam's high school, things get a bit awkward... Oh, wait no they don't because she did it on purpose! Warning, slight swearing, bad grammar, spelling, suicidal thoughts, also this book is EXTREMELY cliche. L.RTerminé
