Plot

Andrea San Vicente (Lucero) is a young lawyer who is modern and intelligent. She has a passion for justice which takes her to defend the rights of the most vulnerable. That same passion will lead her to uncovering the truth concerning her past, which she doesn't know anything about.

Andrea lives in a house in a private middle class section in Mexico City with her aunt, Zulema (Sylvia Pasquel), her uncle, Anselmo (Héctor Ortega), her younger sister, Gina (Sherlyn), and her cousin, Magda (Andrea Torre). Zulema has made the girls believe that their parents died in an accident, but the reality is different.

Andrea and her sister have grown up as part of a family, a fact for which Zulema tells them they ought to be grateful. After all, they were given a home and education. Andrea has become the main source of income in the family, since her uncle, Anselmo, has had diabetes for years and this doesn't allow him to work.

Andrea falls in love with Ramiro (Mauricio Islas), a young man of better economic position than her. They are about to marry, but they have to confront many obstacles, mainly the rounding opposition of Samuel (Luis Bayardo), who is Ramiro's father, and the lies and intrigues of Sofía (Natalia Streignard), an ex-girlfriend of Ramiro.

Andrea and Ramiro eventually get over all those obstacles and finally get married, but fortune has a cruel game in store for the two: during their honeymoon and after having consummated their marriage, Ramiro dies all of a sudden and leaves Andrea in a terrible loneliness. Andrea has become a widow being so young and now she has to confront a fate she had never expected.

Andrea takes refuge in her work and her studies, since she is doing a master's degree in psychology. Not only has she buried Ramiro, but also all of her possibilities to love have gone with him.....or at least that is what she thinks. Without looking for it and without even imagining it, two men of distinct character will come into her life: Eduardo Rivadeneira (Jorge Salinas) and Mauricio Rodríguez (Jaime Camil); but only one of them will be her destiny.
