Love can have a huge impact on our lives. When we think we're about to give up on love, something or someone come into our lives and changes our perspective on it. That's what happened with twenty-five year old, María Villanueva. She had just broken up with her boyfriend of five years, and she thought she wouldn't be able to love or trust anyone again. Not until she meets twenty-six year old, Luis Ramirez. They start to talk and they hit it off right away. But María still has this feeling that she doesn't think she can handle being in another relationship after what happened with her last, and to make matters worse, her ex is still in the picture. Luis, however, does everything to make sure María doesn't get hurt in any way anymore. And makes sure she feels loved and appreciated. Will María have the happily ever after that she desires with someone new? Or will her past and her ex keep getting in the way?
