Consider An Extraordinary Union by Alyssa Cole.
“This is a character-forward historical romance that layers clandestine missions over wartime urgency, anchored by a formerly enslaved protagonist with an eidetic memory. The pleasure comes from high-stakes setups, oppositions of loyalty, and scenes that trade between danger and growing intimacy.

Best taken as an emotionally driven, plot-tinged love story rather than a strict history primer.”
