When Iris pours her heartbreak into letters meant for her missing brother, she never expects an answer—but a mysterious correspondent begins writing back through impossible means, and their connection feels like coming home. Across a brutal war that threatens everything they hold dear, Iris and Roman risk everything to stay tethered to each other through words, even as secrets, separation, and the chaos of conflict threaten to tear them apart. This sweeping two-book collection captures the ache of longing, the power of correspondence to bridge impossible distances, and the fierce determination of two people fighting not just for survival, but for a future together. It's a gorgeously romantic story about how sometimes the most profound love letters are the ones we never expected to receive.
