Ella once desired more than the life of a simple servant.

Now she works herself to the bone for the man she once called her stepfather, and her only refuge is the books in the library, which she is forbidden to enter.

One night, while Ella is reading by candlelight, her wish comes true. At precisely midnight, a demon appears to the girl and makes an offer that will change her life: seven wishes in exchange for an immortal soul. But is Ella willing to pay such a price to escape poverty and win her handsome prince?

A dark retelling of "Cinderella," with no fairy godmother: only a demon and a Faustian bargain. Book bloggers have praised the book. It offers a captivating Victorian atmosphere with Gothic overtones and a unique, fresh take on a well-known fairy tale. What lengths will a person go to to fulfill their dreams? Seven desires - seven steps into darkness.
