Rebecca Ross

"Rich world-building and the poignancy of young love make the first in this fantasy romance duology a wistful and riveting read." - The Washington Post

"An ardent romance and a harrowing exploration of war's horrors and heartbreaks... with inventive worldbuilding, nuanced characterizations, and prose by turns dreamy and atmospherically tense." - Publishers Weekly

"Divine Rivals is another absolute winner from author Rebecca Ross, who is rapidly proving there's very little she can't do in the realm of fantasy fiction." - Paste Magazine

"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

"Deeply romantic and beautifully written, Divine Rivals is a story that lingers long after the final page. Set in a world steeped in mythology, Iris's journey to the front is both fascinating and moving, with an ending that will leave readers aching for the next book. I absolutely loved it." -Rachel Griffin, New York Times bestselling author of The Nature of Witches

"Ross has crafted a tale that hooks its readers with whip-smart intrigue, and holds them fast with dazzling prose, a charming cast, and a world where mystique shimmers just beneath the surface. Hers is a brilliant blend of whimsy and heart." -Ayana
