Nang makapasa si Grae sa Nursing Licensure Examination, labis ang kanyang tuwa dahil sa wakas, maibabalik na rin niya lahat ang sakripisyong ginawa ng kanyang mga magulang para makatapos siya ng pag-aaral. Ipinangako niya sa kanyang sarili na tutulungan niya ang mga ito para makaahon sa kahirapan.
Her friends dragged her to an exclusive bar for their celebration somewhere in the Metro. Hindi man siya sanay sa lugar na iyon, she tried her best to act coolly kahit ang totoo'y gustong-gusto niya ng umuwi. At sa ilang beses niyang pagtikim ng alak, hindi niya namalayang unti-unti na itong sumasaklaw sa sistema niya.
That's when she spent her longest and wildest night with Alfie Villanueva.
Ngunit nagbunga ang maalab na gabi na pinagsaluhan nilang dalawa. Paano na siya makakatulong sa kanyang pamilya kung may responsibilidad na siyang kailangang harapin?
At...matatanggap kaya ng lalaking ito ang kanyang anak na nabuo lamang mula sa isang gabing puno ng kapusukan?

How far would you go for the man you love to love you back? For Rylee, she would do anything--even lie about a pregnancy--for North Alvarado.
***
Rylee Addison Sandoval's longtime crush on her brother's best friend, North Alvarado, isn't a secret. It's as embarrassing as they come, even pretending to get lost around the college department just to catch a glimpse of him. Everyone thinks it's unrequited, even Rylee herself, but one drunk night with North changes it all. Grabbing an opportunity to have him forever, Rylee tells everyone she's pregnant with his baby. North is willing to take responsibility for her and the child, but one problem: there is no child. How long can Rylee's deception last until North finally discovers the truth? And will love be enough for him to forgive her...or not?
