"No God--No Creature--NoWar--Can Come Between Them"

Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross tells the story of two young journalists determined to tell the truth about the war among the gods that is tearing apart their world. Roman Kitt comes from an influential family. Iris Winnow has a brother fighting in the war and she is determined to hold together what little her family has left. These two are rivals in the newsroom, but soon find common ground…some in very unexpected and magical ways. Can they survive the war and find love? Will the dark forces at work tear them apart?

This is a young adult novel that has taken over a lot of best of lists and I know many an adult woman who has read and enjoyed this book. It is a touching story of young love, life during a war, and the power of family and truth. Divine Rivals is a super fast and easy read and hits a sweat spot of romance and fantasy. (I’m not a huge romance reader and this was just the right level of love story for me.) With a great cliffhanger of an ending, you will definitely want to read Ruthless Vows to find out how it all wraps up.
