(4.5 stars) I almost did not read this latest Milan entry in her Worth Saga series. Although I admire her social conscience and share her outrage over racism, bigotry, sexism and xenophobia, Milan's romances with those underlying themes have felt preachy and about as subtle as a sledgehammer. Well, maybe I'm getting used to her or maybe this one just clicked with me.Third in the Worth Saga, this one takes place in the early 1870s, after the American Civil War in which three brothers of our hero, Grayson Hunter, were killed. Adrian, the youngest Hunter brother, you may remember, if you're a Milan fan, as the hero of AFTER THE WEDDING, Worth Saga #2. He's the only one of the five sons of an English duke's daughter and a Black abolitionist who lives in England, taking care of the family's pottery business there.(BTW, characters featured in this story have ties either to the Hunter or the Worth families. I mention this because Worth Saga #1 came out in 2015 and because of all the HRs I've read since then I needed a bit of a refresher about these characters. So our connection to the Worth family here is that Adrian Turner is married to Camilla Worth and Camilla's brother Benedict Worth is an employee of Grayson Hunter.)But this is a story mainly about two somewhat lost souls: Captain Grayson Hunter and Amelia Smith. Grayson is a tortured man, in a way, suffering from survivor's guilt because, out of the four Hunter brothers who participated in the Civil War, he is the only one still living. Now he's on a mission, to complete the telegraph line he and his brothers had always dreamed of building. He wants to connect Shanghai to the U.S., but to do this he needs a workable Chinese telegraphic code, something that has been elusive. He has been told about a certain "Silver Fox" in Fuzhou who has already invented a partial code and he sets off to find and hire him.So, yes, this Silver Fox is actually our heroine, a young Asian woman who was adopted at the age of six by a white missionary family in China. Oh, how lovely and kind of that missionary family, you may think? Once upon a time, growing up the daughter of a Protestant minister, I would have. We children even had to recite the line "and bless the Christian missionaries all over the world and keep them safe and from all harm and danger" as part of our nightly prayers.But that's until I grew up and realized that, in the name of Christian proselytizing, missionaries steal away a people's identity, their language, religion and culture, their way of life, and try to replace it with the white man's "superior" versions. (Research what mission schools here in the U.S. did to Native American children in the 1800s and weep.)But never mind that. I'm preaching more than Milan did in this book. She was not at all heavy-handed here in dealing with injustices, although she does allow us to see some of the racism Grayson faces as a biracial Black man in a monoracial white-controlled world and all that Amelia has to face as an Asian woman trying to live in the white world, almost losing her identity in her desire to fit in and be accepted.But, fortunately, these two find each other and find healing. Amelia leaves her white family to accept employment in Shanghai, working for Grayson to perfect that Chinese telegraphic code. Along the way to inventing that code, she finds herself and her roots and her pride, realizing her self-worth and not allowing herself to be put down by others, especially not by her adoptive mother and the white missionary circle.And Captain Hunter? He will need to forgive himself and lose his feelings of guilt about being the only one of four brothers to survive the Civil War. He will need to learn to love himself and also to realize that he is loved by his family.This is a love story with two very appealing characters. It takes place over a period of maybe two years, and during most of that time they are separated, with Grayson out on the ocean laying cable and Amelia back in Shanghai creating Chinese code. Their methods of communication with each other are remarkably romantic and cleverly done. And who would have thought that mention of gutta percha and megalodons would be so entertaining? All in all, this new Milan was a success, IMO. OMG this book! It is raw and heartrending and deep. It is about how to heal after irreparable loss, and thank heavens I knew there would be an HEA because it is just a wring-you-out-and-leave-you-sprawled-on-the-sofa-bawling kind of book. So good. So good. The characters face real challenges that are rooted in horrors of history that are too often papered over, and although this is a historical romance, the hope they fight for is so relevant today. There isn't much conflict between the hero and heroine, they're more just supportive and there for each other, but that's just as well because the external stuff they're coming to terms with is so big that I really just want them to get all the support they can. And they do. Their relationship is healing and supportive, their relationships with supporting characters are wonderful. It's a fundamentally hopeful and healing and optimistic book of how to go on.Anyone who has read any of Milan's more recent books will be unsurprised that this book deals squarely with the harms done by imperialism and racism, even more so than the other books in the Worth Saga. It is unapologetic about telling the story of a heroine who has been done grievous harm by Western missionaries, and this is HER story, not a book whose goal is to soothe the feelings of people who may identify with the missionaries. If you are someone who insists that all stories about Westerners in other countries should show them as saviors or give them redemption arcs or hasten to affirm that they are good people despite the harm they did, this book is an important alternative viewpoint to read, but you’re probably not going to enjoy it very much. A significant number of Westerners in China who were convinced they were doing good instead did massive harm because of their racist beliefs. If reading something that shows an instance of that and doesn’t bend over backwards to excuse their behavior or say “not all missionaries” will make you defensive, that would be a good thing to work on before reading this book.
