I found the plot to be much stronger and more interesting than Bad for the Boss, but I still found the book to be weak overall. Lizzie and Isaac were flat characters with limited personality characteristics outside of their stereotypes of cool,powerful ballerina and rough, hardened ex-con. As well, I don't enjoy the weird power dynamic between Lizzie and Isaac that seems to be consistently at play throughout the book (such as Isaac being obsessed with Lizzie looking down on him).
Hibbert is such a talented writer, so this book still gets 2.75 stars.
