Summary
Mélanie is an ordinary, dowdy looking girl with one fatal
flaw. She can’t help being nice to people. It seems that
her sole mission in life is to please others, and so naturally everyone
takes advantage of her. Her mother, her boss, her friends – all
play on her apparent naivety for their own gain. But all is not
what it seems. Mélanie’s apparent sanctity evaporates in
an instant when a date with a man she thought would be the love of her
life goes disastrously wrong. So much for niceness. So much
for good deeds and forced smiles. Now it is time for revenge...
