A guy who danced with what could be the girl of his dreams at a valentine mascarade ball only has one hint at her identity: the Zune she left behind as she rushed home in order to make her curfew. And with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in front of him, he sets out to find his masked beauty.

Mary, a talented dancer with big dreams goes to a dance her stepmom forbid her not to. There she dances with superstar Joey Parker. With the mask he has no clue of her identity. The only thing he has is a Zune she left behind. Will he find the girl of his dreams? Or be left alone on the dance floor?
Set around the modern world of the music business, the classic fairy tale "Cinderella" is a recast with Mary Santiago, a natural-born dancer at heart, as the orphaned, put-upon princess-to-be, working for cruel pop-star, Dominique and her two horrible daughters, Bree and Brit. After years of abuse at the hands of the wicked trio, Mary, now a senior at Ritzy Beverly Hills High School, is counting down the days until her dance audition for the prestigious Manhattan Academy of Performing Arts, where she hopes to transfer for a bright future away from Dominique and her over-demanding brood. When teen pop sensation, and heart - throb, Joey Parker, returns to Beverly Hills High to finish up school like a "normal" teen. The stage is set for a masquerade ball, so obviously Joey can't find his mystery girl, or the girl who dropped the Zune whilst fleeing from the dance. This modern fairy tale proves you don't need a fairy godmother to make magic happen, or have a happy ending.
Mary lives with her stepmother and sisters, who treat her like a servant girl-of a nobody. Joey Parker is a famous pop star who wants to have a normal high school year. When they meet at a dance, they fall in love. Only problem is, all he knows about her is the top played songs on her playlist. He decides to go out on a school-wide search to find her, and she could be anyone. (Even her sisters!) But she's got other problems. She's been rejected from a top dance school because of an "accident" , and has to show the world what she's got in order to move out of her house.
