Michelle Martine is a beautiful, rich, sophisticated, but sexually naïve woman. Her husband is more interested in business than his stunning wife.

When her husband leaves for a three day trip to Asia, she temporarily joins the stable of a high class pimp she has met through an acquaintance at the spa.
