if i have some partnership agreement, I would bid 1♠. otherwise I will bid 2♣, and then bid my spades.

I have the book, and I don't think that it is good for the players like you.

i will bid 3C. partner's 2NT should be a game try, and my hand is perfectly good now. 3C would not be passed by my partner, since we have found our spade fit. I will raise to 4S if partner bid 3S.

1NT--2!c 2!d---3!c 3!h---3!s 3NT--4!d 4!h---4NT 5!s---7!c I think this sequence will be reasonable.
