Stacy Peterson is just your average girl making her way through her last year of college. She's a straight A student and even managed to get onto the cheerleading squad despite her own terrible social anxiety. This was mostly so that she could spend more time around her crush, Marcus, a strapping young man whom she has had a crush on since her early high school years. She wants him to notice her badly, but upon getting him alone one night she receives a terrible blow to her pride: Marcus won't sleep with her because she is a virgin. Figuring that the only way she would be able to get his interest would be to lose her virginity, she enlists the help of Lance Mitchelson, one of her fellow classmates whom the school has branded a man whore due to his party boy attitude. She plans on it only being a one time thing, but she didn't count on the fact that Lance had been harboring feelings of his own for her that get awakened in the aftermath of their night together. Will Stacy be able to end up with Marcus, or will Lance's feelings for her ultimately win out?
