Publisher's Summary

A LOVE STORY TO DEFY THE GODS

The epic enemies-to-lovers fantasy novel filled with hope and heartbreak from number one SUNDAY TIMES bestseller Rebecca Ross

A LOVE THAT CONQUERS ALL

Eighteen-year-old Iris dreams that one day her writing will make a difference. A war between gods is raging, and she’s landed a prestigious job at the Oath Gazette.

But at home, she’s barely holding it together. Her brother is missing on the frontline. Her mother is lost in a haze of addiction. And each night Iris pours her heart out in letters to her brother.

Letters that will never be answered. Or so she thinks…

RIVALS DRAWN TOGETHER BY INK AND MAGIC

Her letters have made their way into the hands of the last person Iris trusts: Roman Kitt, her cold, unforgiving rival at the paper. When he anonymously writes back, they forge a magical connection that will seal their fate forever.

NO GOD. NO CREATURE. NO WAR CAN COME BETWEEN THEM.

Critic Reviews

“Rich and romantic – if stories had scent, this one would smell like a mug of black tea, the ink ribbons of a typewriter, and that addictive spice called enemies to lovers." (Shelby Mahurin, New York Times bestselling author of Serpent & Dove)

"A sweeping start to a beautiful and romantic new series. Ross weaves her stories in such a vulnerable and delicate way, truly with a style all her own. I adored this book." (Adalyn Grace, New York Times bestselling author of Belladonna)

So very Sweet

Absolutely adored divine rivals. It was something so heartwarming and sweet about the story arc. I loved the subtle magic system. I absolutely adored the realm and presence of the gods, and the interesting way in which the gods have been woven into this more time aged period.

This is such a sweet story. It was wholesome, honest, and yet still full of yearning.

It had young and an chanted Lake House vibes.
