Ella's Masquerade

Midnight Fae Academy Prequel

De: Lexi C. Foss

Narrado por: Lessa Lamb, Kirt Graves

Once upon a time, a handsome prince asked the academy wallflower to the ball. She was blinded by the stars in her own eyes and the pitter-patter of her lonely heart. Little did she know this prince was no prince at all, but a villain disguised behind a charming smile.

Ella

There are no such things as fairy tales or happily ever afters. Not in my world. My reality is riddled with pain and loss and immense hatred.

Until him.

Trayton Nacht, the new transfer student at Darlington Academy.

Something about his darkness calls to me. The way his eyes glimmer in the night and the cruelty of his handsome smile.

With a single glance, he turned my world inside out. And now I can't get enough.

But what if he's just like the rest of them? What if this is all just another masquerade?

Tray

She stole my heart, once upon a time. Three years ago in an alley where she left me with a pair of sodden blue slippers.

Her life had been mine for the taking, until I discovered the fae magic lurking beneath her skin. Now it's time to recruit her, to take her to her fate.

But first, we'll play a little game.

One that will end in destruction.

Because f--k fairy godmothers.

What Ella needs is a Dark Fae.

One who can help her burn Darlington Academy to the ground.

A Dark Fae like me.

Author Note: This is a dark Cinderella retelling with strong bully elements. This M/F PNR features a happily ever after ending and is also the prequel to the Midnight Fae Academy Why Choose Trilogy. Tray and Ella are important characters throughout the series.

Cinderella Inspired with a delicious dark fae twist

While this story is definitely based on the Cinderella fairytale, there is also very much a 10 Things I Hate About You vibe to it, and a very deliciously dark fae, magical twist to it. Ella and Tray’s relationship definitely starts off on a rocky foot, given Ella’s history with bullies and needing to protect herself, but when they finally get past all the mistrust, their relationship sizzles in every way possible. I probably took a little too much joy in the payback and revenge, but it was all so much fun to read. And the dynamic between Ella and Tray is fantastic, her snark and sass to his alpha, cocky ego; but underneath it all, we get her vulnerability, and his need to protect and support her, it what makes them such a great couple in the end.

Yes from beginning to end yes morrrrrrrrrrrreeeeee!!!!!

Dislike nothing
Absolutely loved everything very creative as usual for this author original and unique- cute playoff from original
I would absolutely love to hear a book 2
Thanks again MISS FOSS

Fabulous story about Tray &Ella

Both VO actors did a super job-Ella sounded exactly like I imagined when I read the story on Kindle.
The story connects The Midnight Fae Academy series and is best to listen or read BEFORE you start Midnight Fae.
I loved this take on Cinderella too! Overall. Just a fun, easy& sexy romance to listen to when you don’t want extreme intensity.

Loved this story!!

The introduction in to the Midnight world was perfect while being introduced to the two main characters, Tray and Ella.

Ella’s Masquerade is a Fairytale retell of the classic Cinderella with a dark twist. I loved how their relationship evolved and felt how much Tray cared for Ella. We also got to meet Tray’s royal family including Prince Kohls which I’m sure we will be getting to know better within the rest of this series.

I can’t wait to see where this tale takes us!

Great Story and Narration

I loved this couple and the story development. I can’t wait to continue with the series!!
