April hates men: how entitled and arrogant and cruel they are. She particularly hates being rejected by them, after she's gone to so much effort to put herself out there.

So when April meets Joshua, she vows that this time things are going to be different.

Because this time April is pretending to be Gretel: the perfect woman, the kind that any man would fall in love with. Gretel is going to lure Joshua in, and then she's going to make him pay for it.

But are all men really the problem? Is being Gretel really the answer? And how long can April keep pretending to be someone she's not?
