The intimacy the MCs explore and ultimately commit to is so well developed I could write an essay about that alone.
WHEW, beyond impressed.

The hero being under the spectrum was interesting, specially to see how it impact his interactions. Even more when romance gets in the mix with the heroine.
But the story was too much about spying stuff and I missed the romance.
The story was heavy, due to the context of the Civil War and slavery, and I appreciate that it brings awareness about the struggle of living back then for a person of color, even freed.
But it was too much for me, as I need my romance books to bring me joy and the chance to escape reality.

I still definitely recommend this series for anyone interested in historical fiction or historical romance. It is a well written series with substance.
