A New Year's Eve meet cute, a wild twenty-four hours, and a potential happily ever after. She's got a family tradition to save. He's all-in to help the charming woman he's just met.A contemporary Cinderella, Maria's a young professional in NYC, dealing with her boss, demanding clients, a nonexistent dating life, and a mother who expects her home in Philadelphia for the family's annual New Year's Day performance in the Mummer's Parade. Trying to make her way home on New Year's Eve, she dashes through the train station and slams into an elegantly dressed man, Hunter, who's in town for a reunion with friends. At home, Maria is convinced by her life-of-the-party cousins to attend the First Night Ball. Mishap after mishap delay the women's arrival at the elegant event. Once there, Maria and Hunter awkwardly cross paths again. An untimely accident and a frantic message from her mother send Maria running. In the hospital she promises her father that she'll do her best to guide the group's performance in the parade. At the team's clubhouse she finds chaos and missing performers. Maria's devastated when she realizes that for the first time in their long history the team can't compete. Hunter and his friends, a group that's never been known to turn down a challenge, chivalrously offer to fill in for missing performers. Together this band of misfits improvise and save the day. Over the course of twenty-four hours, Maria and Hunter fall hard for each other. A heartfelt story, First Night reminds that sometimes paths are meant to cross. And, everything can change in a day.…
