Ella and Ash

Cinderella Reimagined

2019

Three years after her mother’s death, Ella is left with an absent father, a cruel stepmother, and a magical pendant so powerful she must keep it hidden. The pendant is the only connection Ella has with her mother, and she will do anything to protect it—even if it means becoming a servant in her own home. To escape her wicked stepfamily, Ella finds solace under the branches of the weeping willow beside her mother’s grave. Ella thought she could practice her magic there in secret, but when she is caught by Ashwin, the son of the richest lord in the county, Ella fears she may lose her pendant after all. Ashwin gains Ella’s trust by promising not to tell anyone about the pendant, but Ella knows they are from different worlds, and she is reluctant to open up to him too much. When Ashwin invites Ella to a masquerade ball, she sees it as a chance to escape her life, even if it is for just one night. But her pendant isn’t the only secret Ella has been keeping. If Ashwin learns who she really is, will the truth ruin her chance of happiness with him, or will it set her free? Find out in this sweet and magical re-imagining of Cinderella.

Princess Aria of Auradale has everything, except the right to choose who she marries. She doesn’t want to commit to a man she has never met, but the time has come to meet the terms of her betrothal. Aria sets out for Rivergate to marry Prince Bryson, strengthen the alliance between their kingdoms, and face a life she would rather run away from. Aria’s maidservant, Joceline, convinces Aria to cast a spell. They switch places, allowing Aria more time to decide if Prince Bryson is someone she can happily spend the rest of her life with. But being a maidservant isn’t what Aria was expecting, and she soon wants to be herself again. Joceline has other ideas. She enjoys being a princess, and she wants to stay as Aria so she can be the one who marries the Prince.

How can Aria break the spell when she can’t tell anyone what they’ve done? Stuck in someone else’s skin, can Aria find her happily ever after when no one is who they should be?
