She's torn between her parents who want the pure virginal daughter, and her boyfriend, Dom, who wants to explore the
more intimate side of their relationship. Tired of waiting, her boyfriend breaks up with her, spurring Monique to discover
shehas a medical condition that makes her far from perfect and she concocts a plan to fix her body and win him back.
With the help of her frenemy, Sasha, the overly zealous church girl Monique's mum pushes her to hang out with, and
Reggie, the town's not-so-good boy, Monique must go on trips to unknown and uncomfortable places to find the treatment
