Luke and Eve are heading off on their first holiday together. But they''re staying with Eve''s dad in his Spanish hotel and things aren''t going to go to plan... Eve''s dad treats his daughter like a little girl - and if Luke was hoping for a some summer action with Eve, her father soon puts a stop to it. Eve showcases her singing with the hotel band in the evenings, which means she''s spending a lot of time with the handsome male drummer. Luke''s jealous, but a revenge snog with the gorgeous Catalina doesn''t seem to help his relationship with Eve much, and Cat''s boyfriend is none too pleased either. Suddenly, it''s turning into a holiday from hell...

Luke spots Eve at his dad''s funeral. She''s hot - and she''s the perfect distraction from his messed up family life. There''s only one problem - she''s got a boyfriend. Still, Luke''s not going to give up that easily... When he meets Ryan at a party and hears about ''the Six Steps method'' to guarantee success with any girl, Luke determines to put it to the test. Step by step, he begins to get closer to Eve - but one step forward seems to mean two steps back, and when he''s hospitalised by the jealous boyfriend, he wonders if any girl - even one as gorgeous as Eve - is really worth it...
