"You're a fast learner, love. You're driving me fuckin' crazy..." Because of a painful past and dark secret, hindi magawang maabot ni Spice ang pangarap niya kahit abot-kamay na niya iyon. Then there was Bass. Ang bagong kaibigang sumagip sa kanya mula sa kadiliman at kalungkutan and the man she'd fallen in love with. Nang malaman niyang iniisip nitong makipagbalikan sa ex-fiance nito, rebellion had finally hit her. Recklessly, pinatulan niya ang suhestiyon ng mga kaibigan---akitin daw niya si Bass. An innocent heiress who had nothing in her mind but to run their family business, Spice needed to have a bit of sexual experience so she could confidently and brazenly seduce Bass. At nang gabing iyon, dumako ang atensiyon niya kay Sanji Dela Vega---the hot multi-millionaire playboy who could be the definition of sex itself. He also annoyed the hell out of her dahil sa cocky at skilful flirting nito tuwing nagkikita sila. Pero kinalimutan niya iyon, maging ang ibang mahalagang dahilan kung bakit hindi dapat ito nilapitan niya para bigyan siya ng "karanasan". Spice expected a kiss. A touch. Not an intense foreplay---na siyang ipinaranas nito sa kanya. And wait. There's more! "Kung gusto mong lalo pang maging pamilyar sa karanasang 'to, we could do it again. And again," he said huskily, his bedroom eyes amused but heated. "I mean it, love. Any damn time." No, she wasn't thrilled. Or excited. Ginawa lang niya ang kabaliwang iyon para kay Bass. One night of madness was enough... wasn't it?
