Excerpt:

Elizabeth threaded her way up the stairs from the main deck to plant a kiss on Turner's cheek. Jack turned his head to the stars, finding them less fetching than the woman who was pirate in all but name. "I don't need to separate you two, do I?" Elizabeth teased, her eyes bright from the rum. Jack had quite enjoyed that he didn't need to twist her arm to partake in just a tipple or two.

"It seems even when we try, we can't lose Captain Jack, so it seems a waste to try," Turner replied. Elizabeth laughed heartily. Jack grimaced and ignored the twist of the knife that came with it.
