Divine Rivals Reading Order (Rebecca Ross)
May 9, 2026
Rebecca Ross’s Divine Rivals — the start of the Letters of Enchantment duology — is a swoony, war-torn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy with a magical-typewriter hook that BookTok adored. Here is the order.
The reading order
- Divine Rivals (2023)
- Ruthless Vows (2023)
What it is about
Rival young journalists Iris and Roman are connected by enchanted typewriters that let them write to each other unknowingly — all against the backdrop of a war between gods. Tender, romantic, and emotionally devastating.
Read in order
Yes — it is a two-book story, so read Divine Rivals then Ruthless Vows. The duology is complete.
Why readers love it
A slower, more lyrical romantasy than the spice-forward hits, with a 1920s-inflected setting and a love story built on words. Perfect if you want feeling over heat.
