Fem!America is the daughter of the most ruthless pirate to ever sail the sea. When she turns 18 she wants to join his crew like her brother has but he forbids it and turns to talk of arranging a marriage for her. She runs away to the next nearest port town, disguises herself as a guy, and signs up for the first ship she sees. Too late she discovers that she's signed herself up for the crew of her father's most hated enemy Spain.
Events draw them together and she finds herself falling in love with him and it seems the interest might be returned if only she was the guy that he thought she was instead of the lying infiltrating enemy (that is how she assumes she'll be seen by him when he finds out) that she is.
It doesn't help that his grumpy, overly suspicious First Mate seems to be onto her secret.
Bonus: Spain knows exactly who she is the second he spots her on the docks. He does what he can to keep her secret, and herself, safe but he doesn't take it easy on her in terms of her duties on the ship and he trusts her to do them impeccably despite being a woman.(she does have Kirkland blood in her after all) Bonus 2: Spain used to be England's First Mate before the falling out that lead them to be enemies.
