## Plot

The women in the Lopez clan have suffered a terrible curse that has lasted for 100 years. This curse prevents them from having true love. They always fall on the misfortune of falling in love with two men: one a wonderful man who is serious and responsible while the other is an irresponsible scoundrel, but they end up choosing the bad one.
Yamilet Lopez (Sabrina Seara), like all the Lopez women, is beautiful, smart, funny, hardworking and caring. She also falls victim to the family curse. On the day of her job interview, she meets two men. Ignacio Castillo (Eduardo Orozco) is a taxi driver and fireman who is sweet, kind and responsible and Jose Alberto Gamboa (Ricardo Alamo), a mischievous womanizer who has been married for 25 years to Mariela (Gigi Zanchetta) a high school guidance counselor and has a mistress Dinorah (Flavia Gleske) who he has been seeing for 10 years.
Both men will try to conquer Yamilet's heart. However, she doesn't know who is the good one or who is the bad one.
The Lopez women have hope that the curse can be broken. What they do not know is that it all depends on a secret that Marbelis Castillo (Carlota Sosa) Ignacio's mother knows. Everyone believes that she is a saint, but in reality she is an evil woman that will stop at nothing, even to the extent of killing, to make sure that her secret is not revealed.
