N2  - "Eighteen-year-old Carmen takes on a summer internship that has her reuniting with estranged family for an over-the-top quinceañera, reluctantly reconnecting to a long-lost ex-boyfriend, and finding happiness in the chaos"--; Carmen Aguilar just wants to make her happily ever after come true. Which involves being stuck in an unpaid summer internship-- performing in a ball gown-- during the summer-- in Miami! Then the company is hired for her spoiled cousin Ariana's over the top quinceañera. And her new dance partner at work is none other than Mauro Reyes, Carmen's most deeply regrettable ex. If Carmen can manage dancing in the blistering heat, fending off Mauro's texts, and stopping Ariana from ruining her own quinceañera, she might just get that happily ever after. -- adapted from jacket
