Unlike her outgoing and spontaneous sisters, Ella is happy with boring and monotonous. She'd rather spend her days helping their mother with her maid business than trying on Delaney's shoes or raiding Anna's closet. So when her sisters convince her to agree to just one night out with the very date-able Will Royal, Ella knows the night can only end badly, and not just because she's driving the family's Ford Pinto covered in Lady T's maid service logos. But one night just might surprise her.
(A modern-day Cinderella adaptation written for a creative writing class last spring.)
