I absolutely loved this! In this remastered version of Alexis Daria's debut novel, we follow Gina Morales, a professional dancer that is determined to make it to the finals of her dance competition show, and Stone Nielson, a reality TV show star that is her celebrity partner. I really enjoyed the emotional build-up between the couple as they learn to trust each other both on the stage and off it. 

Alexis Daria's writing style is very fluid and it immediately immerses you into the "Dance Off!" world. This is the perfect sizzling read for Valentine's Day!

Thank you to St. Martin's Press and Netgalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
