"The Best Telenovela of the Year" (2000 TVyNovelas Awards)
When they were children, Julieta (Leticia Calderón) and the brothers Pedro (Francisco Gattorno) and Cristóbal Valencia (Abraham Ramos) were friends, but Genaro (Manuel Ojeda), owner of "El Castillo" and the boys' father, pulled them apart. The painter Gabriel Almada (César Évora) takes care of little Julieta when her grandfather dies.
They leave the region and over the years she becomes a brilliant doctor. Moved by nostalgia, she decides to return to San Vicente, her hometown, and practice her profession there.
Gabriel accompanies her, but their return revives passions from the past. Genaro's hatred towards Gabriel is reborn, because he always knew that the painter was the true love of his wife, Sofía (Alma Delfina). This hatred is shared by Pedro, who once saw Gabriel kissing his mother.
Genaro brings his niece, Nadia (Mónika Sánchez), to "El Castillo" with the idea of solving his financial problems through the fortune that the young woman has inherited. On her side, Julieta discovers that her childhood friendship with Pedro has turned into a mature and well-requited love. But they are separated by Nadia, who has set her sights on him. Julieta, alone and hurt, takes refuge in Gabriel, but he has fallen in love with her.
Julieta finds herself between two conflicting emotions: her strong passion for Pedro and the peaceful and secure love that Gabriel offers her. Now, Julieta must choose between two loves.[2]
