Rivals-to-lovers Stories

Crystal never wanted to leave Earth. But when a mythical stone known as the Starstone pulls her through space and time, bringing her onto the planet of Dahlia, everything she thought she knew unravels. Dahlia is a world of horses, magic, and danger. According to the Starbound prophecy, she is meant to save the world she barely knows-alongside a Dahlian boy marked by a scar, a sign of the perilous fight to come. Their actions could save-or doom-Dahlia. As she struggles to adapt, Crystal finds unexpected friends, a new best friend in a horse named Starbound, and secrets about her family no one was meant to know. And then there's Ash. Teasing, arrogant, and annoyingly talented, he becomes her biggest rival-as much at school as in the arena. From their first meeting, it's hate at first sight. But beneath the rivalry and jokes, something else starts to grow. Meanwhile, a dangerous force soon to be known as the Shadebound is rising, determined to fulfill the prophecy-in their favor. On Dahlia, everything is destiny. And their destiny might bring them closer than either of them is ready for.

Despite these differences, however, there is one thing they share in common: they're all, to their very cores, good people inside. Right?
