El lives in Rove City, an intergalactic spaceship. Since her fathers death, El lives with her step mother and two step sisters who do their best to make her life as miserable as possible.

Midnight wings is a science fiction retelling of Cinderella but it didn’t feel like it was trying too hard to be Cinderella. Yes, there were evil step sisters and step mother who made her do all the chores, took all her pay from her job and made her life a living hell but it didn’t feel forced. I really enjoyed the storyline between El and Rian. I will definitely read the other books in the series!
