Ruthless Vows

The conclusion of Rebecca Ross's Letters of Enchantment duology picks up with the war between the gods Enva and Dacre escalating and no sign of ending. Iris Winnow returns to the field as a war correspondent, determined to keep reporting the truth of the conflict even as it costs her more than she expected, and even as the person she most wants beside her remains out of reach.

Separated by the front lines and by forces neither of them controls, Iris and Roman find their way back to the enchanted letters that first drew them together. What passes between the pages becomes a lifeline, but the god at the heart of the war has his own designs, and the choices ahead ask each of them how much they are willing to sacrifice — for each other, and for a chance at peace.

Ruthless Vows brings the slow-burn romance and lightly historical, early-twentieth-century-inspired worldbuilding of Divine Rivals to a close, trading some of the first book's newspaper intrigue for the wider stakes of a divine war and its human cost. It is a story about devotion tested by distance, and about the stubborn hope that words can still reach across any silence.
