I didn't hate this one, but I didn't love it.  It didn't feel very original to me, which I know is hard at this point for authors to have a very original plot but this truly felt like a knock off of The Right Move.  Shy, quiet, reserved pro athlete MMC fake dates a girl who moves in with them....  The plots were a little too similar for me but this one didn't have enough grit.  I really liked the FMC in this, I loved how she was a body positive ballerina which, as a dancer, you really do not see enough of.  Overall a decent read but nothing that will stick with me.
