Applejack has always been true to herself, but what happens when telling the truth could cost everything?
Teenagers often feel different, but Applejack really is different. She represents the Element of Honesty, while secretly leading a double life as a chart-topping popstar named Melody Star.
The Apple Family has owned and operated a farm called Sweet Apple Acres for many generations, where they produce the best apples and cider in town. When sales plummet and the cunning Flim-Flam Brothers make offers to purchase their business, Applejack knows that she has to act quickly to protect her family's legacy. Using her voice to make a difference, Applejack becomes an overnight musical sensation called Melody Star. Her debut single captures the hearts of people across the world. But fame and fortune come with a price. Concealing her true identity from the public - and even her closest friends - will be more difficult than she ever imagined.
Applejack is torn between telling the truth and helping her family. Can she save Sweet Apple Acres without losing everything else?

╚»★❝𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙞𝙛 𝙄 𝙨𝙖𝙞𝙙 𝙄'𝙢 𝙞𝙣 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚?❞★«╝ . . . College AU | Rainbow Dash isn't perfect, no matter how much people praise her for her athletic skills, or her captivating smile that made almost every girl blush, or her natural flirtatious behavior. Rainbow had a reputation that consisted of being cocky, flirting, and talking about herself 24/7, but this was the Rainbow that the people in public knew; she suffered in silence. She's not always 100% confident in everything she does, her heart still has scars from abandonment and terrible childhood experiences, she had relationship problems in the past, she was misunderstood, she avoids thinking because it only leads her to becoming emotional, and Rainbow always pushes her emotions away. She smiled in front of everyone like she was fine, but she truly wasn't now was she? During her junior year in college, she meets the most attractive, modest and selfless girl; Applejack, who'd put her friends and family's needs over her own. She was the only one who saw through all of those smiles and her cocky behavior, she saw the real her more than anyone else did. After a little while, Rainbow and Applejack grew strong feelings for each other that meant more than friendship, but it becomes a problem for Rainbow because she dwells on her past and overthinks her fake image and one of Applejack's closest friends gaslights her. Applejack's feelings never went away and she wanted a genuine relationship with Rainbow, but Rainbow was blinded by the darkest thoughts that were never said to anyone. Despite their differences and their own personal issues, will Applejack and Rainbow Dash be able to pursue their feelings? *MLP characters mentioned in this story and book cover art DO NOT belong to me* 𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐆: 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟗𝐭𝐡, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 - ???
