Book Blurb:
“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. “
Review:
Interesting spin on 'Cinderella' in which each character has
magic within them, and some have access to very powerful artifacts handed down
within families. In this re-telling, the
son of the most powerful family in the land sees past circumstances and
befriends our leading lady. This is an
enjoyable quick-read novella, recommended for fairy-tale fans.
I voluntarily read a Review Copy of this
book. All opinions stated are solely my
own and no one else’s.
‘Ella and Ash’ will be available on September 9, 2019 through Amazon's Kindle Unlimited program.
