I have read very few modern takes on Cinderella but I really loved this one the characters were great and I really loved the story so much. I really loved the characters so much especially Elle and Darien they fit so well together I really loved their love story so very much. I really loved Elle for her tenacity and for her standing up for what she loves. I also liked her best friend Sage as well as the likeable step sister Cal the stepmother and other stepsister were so hate able I have never disliked characters more than them. I really liked the story I loved how the modern Cinderella tale was told a girl with a awful stepmother and stepsister who is not treated that meets someone unexpected I just loved how it all played out.
