Eighteen-year-old Iris dreams of a world where her writing can make a difference. But in a realm torn apart by a brutal war between gods, dreams are fragile things. Landing a prestigious job at the Oath Gazette feels like a stepping stone toward her ambitions, but nothing can ease the chaos of her personal life.

At home, Iris struggles to hold everything together. Her brother has gone missing on the war’s unforgiving frontlines, leaving only echoes of his laughter and warmth. Her mother, broken by loss and addiction, drifts further away each day. Left with nothing but her words, Iris pours her grief and hope into letters addressed to her brother—letters she believes will never reach him.

Or so she thinks…

DIVINE RIVALS: RIVALS DRAWN TOGETHER BY INK AND MAGICUnbeknownst to Iris, her letters have somehow found their way into the hands of Roman Kitt, her cold and merciless rival at the Oath Gazette. A brilliant yet unyielding journalist, Roman has his own reasons for intercepting the letters. But the emotions within Iris’s words reach deep into his guarded heart.

Choosing to respond anonymously, Roman and Iris begin exchanging letters, unknowingly creating a bond that transcends rivalry and blossoms into something extraordinary. Their words weave a connection both powerful and magical, one that will change their fates forever.
