Plot

María Fernanda Villalpando is a beautiful, rich, but arrogant, proud woman who lives on a large family hacienda known as Villa Paraíso, in the company of her father Gonzalo and her friend Cristina. María Fernanda is engaged to Gerardo, a wealthy businessman. She finds out that he is cheating on her, so she breaks off her engagement. Miguel Echánove, a young and humble engineer who is visiting with the Villalpando's falls in love with Maria Fernanda's beauty. Though hurt by Gerardo's betrayal, she does not correspond to Miguel's feelings for her but decides to use him by marrying him to get revenge on Gerardo.

Miguel finds out he was deceived by María Fernanda and becomes enraged. He moves her to his small town and makes her life miserable. Sofía, an unscrupulous woman who has always been in love with Miguel, takes advantage of this situation and seeks to retain his love at all costs. But while María Fernanda schemed against Miguel, she comes to the realization that she has truly fallen in with him. Admitting to her mistakes, she tries to show Miguel sincere repentance and admits her true feelings for him. The road is not easy as Gerardo and Sofía will try to recover their respective ex-partners at any cost.
