About This Book
Malie’s heart belongs to ballet, even though her mom runs the family ice cream shop. When Alonzo, a charming new boy from Italy with a passion for gelato, offers dance lessons in exchange for help at the parlor, Malie’s world twirls between ice cream and ballet. As she chases her dream role in Cinderella, she must decide where her true feelings lie and whether she can create her own happily ever after.
