How far would you go just to get asked to the prom?

A: Throw yourself at any guy who would take you?
B: Spend your college fund on the world's hottest dress?
C: Spread nasty rumors about your rivals?
D: All of the above . . . and all the way?

Carmen Salgado is in Senior Hell. She just moved to town-meaning new school, no friends, and worst of all, no date for the prom. Desperation is setting in when she suddenly gets some attention from the most popular jock in the school, Joey Perrone . . . attention that takes a bad turn when Carmen refuses to go all the way with him. But thanks to Joey, the whole school thinks she did.

Being invisible was bad, but being a laughingstock is worse. Her only hope is to get into the school play, and into the arms of Tyler North, her crush. But things may not go as she plans-and this year's prom might have a brand new theme: Carmen's Revenge.

The dresses. The hair. The makeup. The hookups. It all happens on Prom Night.
