The Prince and the Privateer

Hi! I'm looking for "The Prince and the Privateer" by Moonshadow Woman/Elsa Rose. I looked at the tags and the link doesn't work and tried to go through the downloads and didn't see it so if you have a working link or could e-mail it to me I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

Edit: Found some links!

this page on midnight whispers basically only says the story is available for purchase on amazon.

Right, well she didn't mention she'd seen that so I figured that link may say it all. Or does it. I don't know but I'm guessing she doesn't want it to be shared.
Not that I'm a big fan of the whole posting a fanfic and then changing the names and making it an 'orignal' m/m fic people pay for. I won't lie and say I don't first imagine my original fic as B/J but I respect my original characters and Brian and Justin enough to give them stories all their own and no matter how influenced I may be by qaffic within my original stories if I don't deem the characters worthy of their own story, how can I truly expect anyone else to do so.
Brian and Justin may be sickeningly OOC in some of my fics, but I could never replace them in any manner and it just makes me sad when I see this in qaffic. Hell, it pisses me off because after twelve years, they're still not replaceable to me, they never have been and I don't think they ever will be. Likely I'll be writing fanfic for myself long after the last online fangirl has moved on.
Sorry for the tangent here, it's just a major issue I have within my love for qaffic, whether I like the fic or not I don't like to see this done to it, then again, was it ever really qaffic if the author can so easily replace the main characters?
:(

I'm so with you on this one. I find it a total lack of disrespect towards both your readers and the fandom as a whole to do this. I will never support an author who does this.
