Alongside her, Braulio Longoria (Alejandro Camacho), Patricio González (René Strickler), Bárbara Mantilla (Alejandra Barros) and Valeria Andrade (Nailea Norvind) carry storylines of betrayal, rivalry, reconciliation and new love. Each episode is built from tangled relationships, family pressures and quarrels that threaten to pull the friends apart, while the central engine is the stubborn hope that happiness can still be reached after heartbreak.
