An Extraordinary Union by Alyssa Cole

4.0

Elle Burns is a former slave that got back into slavery, posing as a mute woman to spy for the Union Army in the civil war era. There she meets a white man Malcom McCall who is a detective, also a spy. It's a forbidden romance and the tension is high in this book. Not only are they from two completely different worlds but also their relationship is very forbidden. Facing hardship because of that but also being spies makes this a bit suspensfull yet romantic read.
