Born into a blended family, Chantelle grew up on the sidelines, raised with love by her grandmother after her mother's death. Shut out by her father Gérard, dominated by his new wife Rhonda, and relegated to the background behind her pretentious stepsister Mégane, she learned to survive in silence. When her grandmother is diagnosed with a terminal illness, Chantelle's world crumbles. With no family support and overwhelmed by medical bills, she accepts a desperate proposition: one hundred nights for one million euros, with a wealthy man whose identity she will never know.

Matapos ang limang taong pagmamahal kay Liam, nadiskubre ni Ava ang pinakamalupit na pagtataksil—ang pakikipagrelasyon ng kanyang nobyo sa best friend nito. Wasak at pinahiya, pinili niyang magsimula muli. Sa gitna ng sakit, nagpakalunod siya sa alak at nauwi sa isang gabing puno ng init at paglimot kasama ang isang estrangherong ubod ng kisig. Kinaumagahan, iniwan niya ito, naniniwalang isa lamang iyong pagkakamali na dapat kalimutan, gaya ng kanyang nakaraan. Ngunit tila naglaro ang tadhana. Sa unang araw niya sa opisina, handa nang bumangon at magsimula, nagulat siya nang makita kung sino ang bago niyang CEO—si Kaiden, ang lalaking nakasama niya sa gabing iyon. Siya ay makapangyarihan, malamig, at bawal na bawal na mahalin. Ngunit hindi rin malimutan ni Kaiden ang babaeng minsan lang niyang nakasama. Determinado siyang hindi iyon manatiling isang alaala lang, at ngayon ay nais niya ng higit pa. Habang magkasama silang nagtatrabaho, nagiging mapanganib ang laro ng tukso at pagnanasa. Bawat sulyap, bawat lihim na damdamin ay nagbabantang mabunyag ang katotohanang pilit itinatago ni Ava. Sapagkat higit pa sa gabing iyon ang kanyang lihim, nasa sinapupunan na niya ang bunga ng kanilang kapusukan. Nahaharap siya ngayon sa pagpili: patuloy bang tatakasan ang nakaraan, o haharapin ang isang hinaharap na maaaring magpabagsak sa kanya… o kaya’y magliligtas.

Limang taon na ang lumipas mula nang iwan ni Naomi Gonzales ang isla ng Euphoria, kasama ang isang gabing hindi niya kailanman nakalimutan. Isang gabing puno ng alak, init, at pagkakamaling hindi na niya mababawi. Ang natira lang sa alaala niya ay: isang skull pendant, isang mabangong amoy ng sandalwood, at ang bunga ng gabing iyon ay isang regalong pinangalanan niyang Sean.

Sa mundong binuo sa lihim, kasinungalingan, at pansamantalang kasunduan, unti-unting nalalagay sa alanganin ang puso ni Naomi. Dahil sa pagpasok ni Tobias sa buhay nila, unti-unti ring bumabalik ang isang katotohanang matagal niyang iniiwasan. Ang tunay na ama ng anak niyang si Sean. Si Thaddeus Miranda ang kambal ni Tobias. Dahil sa Euphoria, walang pag-ibig na simpleng hiniram lang. At may mga taong kahit limang taon na ang lumipas… hindi pa rin handang pakawalan ka.
