Be my shooting star
In the small town of Eloria, Ava Elara longs for a life greater than the narrow streets and quiet routines she’s always known. Her dreams of adventure and meaning seem as unreachable as the stars, until one fateful night changes everything.
When Ava encounters Prince Kael Timur, heir to the Celestial Throne, she has no idea her life is about to be rewritten. Disguised and wounded after a clash with raiders, Kael is struck not just by Ava’s kindness but by the spark of spirit in her eyes. Their meeting sets into motion a bond that defies the laws of Kael’s kingdom and the rigid traditions of bloodlines and thrones. For Kael, Ava is freedom; for Ava, Kael is the embodiment of her wildest dream.
But love in the Celestial Court is no fairy tale. When Kael dares to bring Ava into his world, she is thrust into banquets, intrigues, and trials designed to humiliate her. Nobles whisper, enemies sharpen their schemes, and Kael risks everything to defend her place at his side. Against this backdrop of suspicion and rivalry, Ava discovers something extraordinary about herself: a hidden power known as the ember, a legacy from her mother’s royal bloodline long thought lost. This ember makes her both valuable and dangerous, a light that could either save the realm or reduce it to ash.
Lurking in the shadows is Lord Draven, a figure of fire and darkness, neither mortal nor entirely spirit. Draven hungers for Ava’s power, seeking to twist the ember to his own ends. He invades her dreams, tempts her with visions, and sows unrest across the kingdom. With every step Ava takes toward Kael, Draven draws nearer, determined to claim her light for himself.
As her love for Kael deepens, Ava’s strength grows. She learns to walk with dignity among those who scorn her, to wield her ember not as a curse but as a gift, and to rise above the weight of fear. But every victory comes with sacrifice. Kael must stand against his court and tradition, risking his crown for the woman he loves, while Ava must decide whether she is willing to embrace the destiny that comes with her power.
Together, they face a choice: surrender to the fate carved by ancient laws and shadows, or forge a new one, no matter the cost. Their love becomes more than personal, it becomes the kingdom’s greatest hope.
The battle with Draven culminates in a test not of armies but of hearts. Trapped in illusions meant to break her, Ava must decide if she will bend to fear or stand in the light of the love that has carried her this far. By choosing Kael, by choosing courage, she turns her ember into a blazing force that repels the darkness. Though Draven is not destroyed, he is cast back, weakened, and Ava emerges not as the simple girl she once was, but as the woman destined to be queen.
The story closes beneath a sky streaked with shooting stars. Ava, once the dreamer yearning for more, has become Kael’s equal, his partner, his queen. For though shadows linger on the horizon, their love burns brighter than fear, brighter than fate itself.
Be My Shooting Star is a sweeping fantasy romance about courage, transformation, and the power of a love that dares to defy destiny. It is the story of a girl who becomes more than she ever dreamed, and a prince who discovers that true strength lies not in crowns or armies, but in choosing love, even when the stars say otherwise.
