Skylar Fletcher is a proud Harris Academy Bulldog! She has everything she’s ever wanted: a perfect boyfriend, great friends, and her dream college waiting for her in the fall. But nothing lasts forever. Skylar's world shatters when her mom decides it is time to move and drags Skylar, kicking and screaming, into Bobcat territory.
At Delmont High School, home of the Bobcats, Skylar has no friends and is often bullied. To make matters worse, her home life sucks thanks to all-star quarterback Caleb Morgan, nephew of her mom's live-in boyfriend.
At first Skylar and Caleb want nothing to do with one another. But they soon discover they're not that different after all--and each is harboring a secret attraction to the other. But can a Bulldog and a Bobcat ever really be more than friends? And are Skylar and Caleb willing to risk everything to find out? Rival Love is a debut young adult contemporary romance from Natalie Decker.
I loved this book so much. I was unhappy with the ending but where the author left it there might be a sequel to it. I really hope there is.
You follow a girl named Skylar world starts to shatter because her mother met a guy and they are moving to a different town where she will go to school that her hometown school hates. But the other thing that is bothering her is that she is also living with a rival from that school that she hates. When she meets Caleb the boy from the other school she has these rush feelings that she hasn't felt from anybody else. For her to hide those feelings for Caleb she acts like a witch to everybody that she comes across. The new school that she is attending puts her through things because they don't want her at this school. She keeps begging her mother to move back to their hometown but her mother keeps saying no. When Caleb starts to have feelings for her he keeps telling himself he can't because she is a rival. Skylar and Caleb keep secrets from other kids at the school because he doesn't want everyone knowing she lives with him.
This story is really well written because it really shows what happens if you go to other high schools that hate your hometown. I loved this book from the beginning to the very end. I really hope there is a sequel to this book because I would read it.
Natalie Decker is the Author of Rival Love. She loves oceans, sunsets, sand between her toes, and carefree days. Her imagination is always going, which some find odd. But she believes in seeing the world in a different light at all times. Her first passion for writing started at age twelve when she had to write a poem for English class. However, seventh grade wasn’t her favorite time and books were her source of comfort. She took all college prep classes in High school, and attended the University of Akron. Although she studied Mathematics she never lost her passion for writing or her comfort in books. She’s a mean cook in the kitchen, loves her family and friends and her awesome dog infinity times infinity. If she’s not writing, reading, traveling, hanging out with her family and friends, then she’s off having an adventure. Because Natalie believes in a saying: Your life is your own journey, so make it amazing!
