Divine Rivals is the book I'll be pressing into everyone's hands this year. Ross writes a wartime romance through letters between rival journalists, and every single letter made my heart ache. Iris and Roman's enemies-to-lovers arc is built on mutual respect for each other's writing before it becomes anything romantic, which makes the payoff devastating. The war backdrop gives weight to what could be fluffy — there are real stakes, real loss.
