No matter how strongly they feel about each other they recognize that there is no way they can have a healthy relationship in their situation. They become so connected to one another, all the other pirates on the ship can see the sexual tension between them from a mile away, and Swift and Cas just want to get together so badly but…they don’t. At first they obviously complete deplore the other but at a slow yet very realistic pace, they grow closer and start to see each other as human being, not just pirate scum or a weak prisoner.Įventually, they develop a seemingly unbreakable bond and would do practically anything to keep the other safe.
If anything happens to the Reckoner pup, Santa Elena will kill Cas and put a bullet in Swift as well for letting it happen. Since Swift is the one who brought Cas on board, the captain Santa Elena (a badass, head bitch in charge woman of color) makes Swift watch over Cas to make sure the prisoner doesn’t do anything that will sabotage her plans.
When the pirates invade the ship Cas was assigned to protect she is found by a girl named Swift who takes her to the pirate captain because Swift knows she needs a Reckoner trainer. The romance in The Abyss Surrounds Us is written in such a unique and compelling way, a way that I have yet to see in an novel with LGBT romance. LESBIAN PIRATES! Quick fact about this blogger: I live for lesbian pirate/warrior babes. I got a high-paced adventure with fighting, gore, treachery, and lesbian pirates. Well, The Abyss Surrounds Us gave me all that and more. Don’t get me wrong I am all about lovey dovey gays but I’ve always been someone who just adores action and fantasy, too. This book was absolutely amazing! Since I’ve started focusing on books with LGBT+ main characters I’ve had a lot of contemporary romance on my list. If Cas fails, her blood will be the next to paint the sea.
She orders Cas to raise the pup and teach him to fight for the pirates. Santa Elena wants to take back the seas with a monster of her own, and she needs a proper trainer to do it. Waiting for her on the pirate ship is an unhatched Reckoner pup. But when the pirate queen Santa Elena swoops in on Cas’s first solo mission and snatches her from the bloodstained decks, Cas’s dream of being a full-time trainer seems dead in the water. She’s been a Reckoner trainer-in-training ever since she could walk, raising the giant, genetically engineered beasts to defend ships as they cross the pirate-infested NeoPacific. For Cassandra Leung, bossing around sea monsters is just the family business.
