## Plot

In the city of Pátzcuaro lives Nora (Yadhira Carrillo), a beautiful young woman full of dreams. She is envied by women and admired by men, yet she only has eyes for Alfredo (Alejandro Ibarra), a handsome young man with few resources. Her father, Jacobo (Manuel Ojeda), continually insists that she should marry a rich and important man. Since his health is delicate, Nora keeps her romance with Alfredo a secret, so as not to upset him. After Jacobo's death, Nora suffers a devastating disappointment when Isaura (Sylvia Pasquel), her stepmother, sells her to Heriberto (Antonio Medellín), the richest man in Pátzcuaro... with Alfredo's complicity!
In defense of her honor while being sexually harassed by Heriberto, Nora shoots him, but he does not press charges to avoid a scandal. However, pressured by the gossip of the neighbors, Nora goes to live in Morelia with her aunt, Alejandra (Margarita Isabel).
In Morelia, Nora meets Arturo (Sergio Sendel) and gives herself passionately to him. Arturo loves her, but he must go abroad where he is offered the job he has always dreamed of, as a pilot on a commercial aviation line. Arturo promises that he will come back to marry her, and Nora is happy making preparations for her wedding secretly from Alejandra.
In a chance encounter, Arturo meets Paulina (Alessandra Rosaldo); and they are both surprised the next morning, when they discover that they have slept together. They say farewell because they have urgent and unavoidable obligations. When Paulina returns to Mexico, she confesses what happened to her fiancé, Juan Carlos (René Casados). He is sympathetic and insists on going through with their wedding plans; but she hesitates, as she realizes that she has fallen in love with Arturo.
Nora discovers that she is expecting Arturo's child, but before she can tell him, Arturo receives a call from Paulina informing him that she is pregnant. Arturo's sense of responsibility forces him to tell Nora what happened. Nora feels betrayed again; she keeps quiet about her pregnancy and decides to dedicate herself completely to the child she is expecting. Fate, however, is merciless with her.
Completely shattered, Nora swears never to love again and remakes her life with a single purpose in mind: to take advantage of her beauty to exploit men. Converted into a tough woman, Nora will live from now on only to make a fortune at whoever's expense and to seek, at any cost, a way to take revenge on Arturo, whom she wants to hate with all her soul... but she can't stop loving him, because loving him is her sin.
