Quelques jours avant Noël, Harriet croise une ancienne amie de lycée. Amie ? Pas vraiment... Plutôt le genre de fille dont elle était jalouse, avec sa minceur, ses cheveux toujours impeccables et ses cils incroyablement longs. Mais surtout, Nina était une véritable vipère, toujours prête à draguer les petits copains des autres filles. Visiblement rien n'a changé: Nina est encore accompagnée d'un type carrément craquant. Pourquoi est-ce toujours sur elle que ça tombe? Mais cette fois-ci, le destin semble sourire à Harriet. Le type en question se montre très galant envers elle lors d'une rencontre imprévue. Serait-il juste un lamentable dragueur, comme le prétend, la colocataire de Harriet? Ou bien, comme elle aimerait le croire, un rêve devenu réalité, un homme gentil, attentif, serviable, poli, riche et... vraiment trop beau ? Harriet va-t-elle profiter de ce cadeau de la vie, et par là se venger des humiliations infligées dans son adolescence par l'insupportable Mina ? Ou va-t-elle écouter plutôt la raison, et laisser passer un " super-coup " ? Heureusement ses copines sont là pour lui donner des conseils - pas toujours bons... A vos marques, les filles...
