Every book that makes me throw my phone (it was an ebook) deserves at least four stars. 
I went into this blind and was kind of confused because of the WOII x fantasy combination with the gods, I wasn't expecting that, more like a rival journalist romance based off the first chapters.
Towards the ending of the book you got more and more war scenes, there are some descriptions so be aware of those when you pick this book up. 

The writing was good in the way that I flew through this one. For some reason the romance felt quick but when you look at where I was in the book, it made sense? I think it's because I read it so fast it didn't feel like we were more than halfway through the book.

Anyways, while this was a bit messy, I still had a good time. It's a bit hard to write a cohesive review because my thoughts are scrambled. In the end I guessed one plot twist but not the actual ending. 
Will definitely pick the second book up when it comes out and will be trying to read the author's backlist. I recommend this one if you're interested (:
