Rosetta Bloom

Cinders & Ash Rosetta Bloom

Ella would like nothing more than to leave her wicked stepmother and spoiled stepsisters behind. Only, she needs money to do so. The young lass secretly works for a local shopkeeper to earn cash, until her stepmother, Lady Kenna, finds out. Lady Kenna gets her stepdaughter fired, beats her, and takes all the cash the girl has earned thus far. Ella hears of a secret job at the castle providing companionship to a visiting relative of the royal family. Desperate to get away from her stepfamily, Ella consents. Ash is a prince confined to a castle. The queen is convinced magic fairies are real and are out to do her son harm. That doesn't stop the young prince from having ladies delivered for his pleasure. When a beautiful maiden is brought to him one evening, he's completely intrigued: by her beauty, by her demeanor and by the fact that she'll only give her name as Cinders. In this steamy retelling of the Cinderella story, Cinders & Ash find love, romance and a fairy tale happy ending.
