Tres Citas Para El Prom will take your students on a wild (and hilarious) journey through the ups and downs of high school relationships — and yes, it’s based on a true story. In fact… it’s mine!

Backstory

When I first got hired at my school, the seniors were interviewing teachers about their prom experiences. Most teachers shared sweet, predictable, heartwarming stories. Not me! My story took a few unexpected turns — so much so that one student asked if he could be the one to interview me because it was just that good. Ever since then, I’ve shared bits of it each year, and now, it’s finally time for the whole story to come out.

While I’ve added a few details for comedic effect, the heart of it is all true: the original prom date who canceled, the teacher who tried to set me up with her nephew (spoiler alert: that did not go well)… and a whole lot more you’ll have to read to believe.

Tres Citas Para El Prom is hitting the shelves soon — and it might just be the perfect book to carry you and your students through the rest of the school year!

Synopsis

Based on true events…

Bianca thought she had prom perfectly planned—dress? Check. Shoes? Check. Nail polish to match? Double check. But when her date bails at the last minute, her dream night starts spiraling into disaster. Watching from the sidelines while everyone else dances the night away? Not an option.

Enter Elvira—Bianca’s bold, brilliant best friend with a plan so wild it just might work. With Elvira calling the shots, Bianca is sure she’ll still make her prom entrance like a queen. But when their plan hits an unexpected snag, Bianca is faced with a tough choice…

How far is she willing to go for one unforgettable night?
