Ella has always had an alright life, besides her mother's death and her mean step sister, Sienna, but when she is framed for a prank she didn't do everything starts to go downhill. Her stepmother grounds her, she loses her camera privileges, and she nearly loses her spot on the school newspaper and yearbook. The only way to keep her spot is to go to the spring formal... But she's been grounded. Sneaking out proves to be more difficult than she originally thought when she dances with the most popular guy in school, Landon Walker, is nearly spotted by Sienna, and she loses her locket. News of the mystery girl who danced with Landon spreads like wildfire and overnight Ella goes from regular Ella to Cinderella... Even though nobody else knows it.
