Dahil sa matinding pangangailangan, napilitan si Raine Almiro na ibenta ang katawan niya kay Marcus Laurent, ang estrangherong nakilala niya sa bar. Desperada na siyang makalikom ng pera na ipambabayad sa tuition fee niya kaya nagsinungaling siya sa lalaki—sinabing kaya niyang ibigay ang kaligayahang hinahanap nito nang gabing ‘yon. Pero ang totoo, virgin pa siya. Iyon ang unang beses niya at handa siyang ibigay iyon, ganun siya kadesperada. Pagkatapos ng mainit na tagpong ‘yon, hindi na muling nagpakita ang lalaki. Pero may iniwan itong pabaon sa kanya... Nabuntis siya nito. Four years later, hindi niya inaasahang muling magtatagpo ang mga landas nila. Marcus is now her new boss—at mukhang tuluyan na siyang nakalimutan nito. And what’s worse? Her first job is to find the woman he met four years ago. Kailangan ni Marcus ang anak niya para makuha nito ang mana. At kapag hindi nahanap ni Raine ang babaeng iyon sa loob ng isang buwan ay matatanggal siya sa trabaho. Pero nang malaman niya kung bakit pinapahanap siya ng lalaki, pinanghinaan siya ng loob. Gusto na lang niyang tumakbo at muling magtago. But she also needs her job—ayaw na niyang bumalik sa pagpa-part time para lang maitaguyod ang anak niya. Now, she’s torn between losing her job and keeping her peace.
