Divine Rivals: A Novel (Letters of Enchantment, 1)
Description
When two young rival journalists find love through a magical connection, they must face the depths of hell, in a war among gods, to seal their fate forever.
After centuries of sleep, the gods are warring again. But eighteen-year-old Iris Winnow just wants to hold her family together. Her mother is suffering from addiction and her brother is missing from the front lines. Her best bet is to win the columnist promotion at the Oath Gazette. To combat her worries, Iris writes letters to her brother and slips them beneath her wardrobe door, where they vanish--into the hands of Roman Kitt, her cold and handsome rival at the paper. When he anonymously writes Iris back, the two of them forge a connection that will follow Iris all the way to the front lines of battle: for her brother, the fate of mankind, and love. Shadow and Bone meets Lore in Rebecca Ross's Divine Rivals, an epic enemies-to-lovers fantasy novel filled with hope and heartbreak, and the unparalleled power of love.Show more

This book is precious and I loved every minute of it.
It started out slow, but gave us plenty of time with the characters to really get to know them, so I actually appreciate that the beginning was slow.
I also loved the fantasy elements and magic realism in this novel. It was an emotional read and the author did an amazing job and making sure the reader really connected with the characters.
Can't wait to read the next one in the series!

Alrighty, buckle up, because “Divine Rivals” is a wild ride from start to finish! I’m slapping a solid 9 stars on this bad boy, and let me tell you why.
First off, this book grabs you by the collar right from the get-go. The opening is like a literary sucker punch in the best way possible. Rebecca Ross has this way of painting scenes with words that makes you feel like you’re right there in the action. Seriously, the level of detail is off the charts!
And don’t even get me started on the plot. It’s like a rollercoaster that you never want to end. Every twist and turn had me on the edge of my seat, flipping pages like a madman.
Now, let’s talk characters. Roman and Iris? Total power couple goals. These two are so well-written and relatable that you can’t help but root for them. Their journey is emotional, intense, and just plain awesome. And the way Ross develops them throughout the story? Chef’s kiss. You’ll laugh with them, cry with them, and probably want to give them a big ol’ hug by the end.
Okay, okay, so maybe I could’ve used a bit more spice in certain parts. But hey, nobody’s perfect, right? Even with that tiny gripe, “Divine Rivals” is still an absolute gem of a read. It’s got everything you could want in a fantasy adventure and then some.
So, if you’re looking for a book that’ll sweep you off your feet and leave you begging for more, look no further. “Divine Rivals” is where it’s at, folks. Trust me, you won’t regret diving into this epic tale.

(This is YA so the romance is sweet and innocent instead of smutty)
I had no idea what this book was about. Zero. Somehow that made it better to go in completely blind. It did take me a moment to adjust to the fact there was a magical element and it was based in a time period reminiscent of WWI, but I loved Roman and Iris. He gave up everything to be with her before he had even confessed his feelings for her. Their love for each other made me feel warm and fuzzy.
I wish we had gotten more of the mythology and magic of the world because it felt like an idea that Rebecca Ross liked but didn’t want to commit to so she executed it halfheartedly. I’m hoping we get more of the mythology in Ruthless Vows. Because of the way this one ended I have high hopes!

This book was pretty good in terms of the story line and characters. The wars scenes were well-written and made it feel like I was in the book. The world-building overall felt like it was missing something and I felt like more information would have been useful. I really enjoyed Marisol as a character.
