I really enjoyed watching this good girl go bad. It was fascinating being in the mind of her boss too. It’s fun to watch the twists and turns and try to guess who will come out on top. I didn’t love the ending but it wasn’t bad either. I did like the mini twist of the baby. I don’t get the fascination with jimmy or any of the men but it kept me hooked!
