Not The Fighting Kind - Will Soulsby-McCreath

There Is No Place For A Dandy On A Pirate Ship.

Nat should be doing what dandies do best: creating fashion, trading information, working on the edges of high society to further their own aims, and flirting with scandal. Instead, they're in the bowels of a ship, captured by pirates intent on ransoming them back to their family as soon as they find out to which family they should send the letter.

Unfortunately for all involved, Nat knows one thing the pirates can never be allowed to find out: They are unransomable.

Their family has plenty enough money to pay any ransom, but Nat's father sent them to sea in the first place, put them in the path of these pirates, because he wanted Nat out of the way.

Ransoms create scandal. Nat can't afford another.
