A proud, born-and-bred Jersey girl, Stephanie Plum’s got plenty of attitude, even if she’s been out of work for the last six months and just lost her car to a debt collector. Desperate for some fast cash, Stephanie turns to her last resort: convincing her sleazy cousin to give her a job at his bail bonding company… as a recovery agent. True, she doesn’t even own a pair of handcuffs and her weapon of choice is pepper spray, but that doesn’t stop Stephanie from taking on Vinny’s biggest bail-jumper: former vice cop and murder suspect Joe Morelli - yup the same sexy, irresistible Joe Morelli who seduced and dumped her back in high school...

Deborah Lurie's score for One for the Money will not age gracefully. Electric Guitar, pop based scores aren't really my thing, although I can appreciate what she's tried to do here.

It's a shame, given her background in arranging other composers music for orchestra that she wasn't given the chance to do the same for this score, as some of the themes are incredibly promising.

And, while I'm not usually a fan of soundtracks that throw together the original score with a handful of light pop songs, they actually work well on this album. I'm reviewing this in the depths of winter, but I received a spring time glow as I listened to the artist tracks.

This score lasts of 1 hr, 36 sec and as well as Lurie's score contains the following tracks:

01 - 'Brighter Than The Sun' - Colbie Caillat
02 - 'Love Gun' - Vanessa Bryan & Mista Youngblood
03 - 'I Got You' - Kristina & The Dolls
04 - 'Surrender' - Amy Loftis
05 - 'Hit Me With Your Best Shot' - Delilah Bright
