About one of the rape scenes:vero_lee's review against another edition
I highly recommend skipping the first five chapters, minimum.
I understand it’s a pirate story, so violence should be expected. However, I thought the amount of rape and torture was too much. Gratuitous, even.

STOCKHOLM SYNDROME TW: what i listed Spoilers all the way down Bruh. She’s a respected captain, but only on her ship. And that spans only a handful of chapters. Beyond that, she’s a captive with no rights. She endures a god awful amount of trauma, from beginning to end. 14 years old. Orphaned. Sexually assaulted and beaten by her 40-something fiancé because her mother practiced sold her so they could return to proper society. Her mother, who was portrayed to be cold and abusive, had a mini redemption arc until she literally threw herself off a cliff. I can’t even begin to describe what else transpires. it’s definitely a lot.krifz's review against another edition

I'm not someone who needs a book to not include rape or sexual assault but I cannot stand when it's not given the gravity it needs or just used to make the 'love interests' seem not so bad (saying that, one leaves the MC to be raped and is considered to have 'rescued' her when he stops 40 pirates from continuing... he's the nice love interest)
