Yet, what Ella does have is Cinder… Witty, swoon worthy, argumentative Cinder.Ĭinder aka Brian Oliver aka Hollywood’s It Boy aka ‘My-life-is-so-controlled-by-others-I-can’t-even-choose-my-girlfriend’ is a hot commodity. Her new step mum isn’t exactly the sharpest marble either.
Added to the already tough situation, she is bullied in her new school for being a ‘freak’ and her step twin sisters are certainly not helping the matter. She is hurting with a capital H and she needs to HEAL. She has lost her mum, been relocated to her estranged father’s new family home, lost her ability to walk normally and 70% of her body is covered in burn scars. However, this one is one of the good ones.Įlla is a broken young woman. Seen it, heard it, read it, dreamt it (oh, is that just me?). Why? Because everyone from your dog’s auntie to your cat’s cousin does it. I’m sure you can see where the story goes from there.Ĭinderella retellings are a tough nut to crack into. All would be back to hunky-dory normal if only Cinder wasn’t now a famous heartthrob actor and Ella wasn’t emotionally and physically scarred for life. Eight months ish later, Ella reaches out to her old pal, and they rekindle their relationship. While Cinder pines after his virtual best friend, Ella lies on a hospital bed recovering from a severe accident, leaving her body scarred and disabled.
Save me some time and remind yourself of the classic fairy tale… Prince Charming on a white stallion, Cinderella sweeping away while birds tweet the latest trending tunes, a wicked stepmother… Ring any bells? Well, there you have the baseline for Cinder & Ella-unsurprisingly, a modern-day Cinderella retelling.Ĭinder and Ella have been email pals for years without ever meeting each other, right up until Ella suddenly vanishes from the world of technology.
