Terracotta Plains

Gabrielle Mendoza, a smart and accomplished woman in her early 20s, had her life figured out. But everything crumbled when her fiancé betrayed her, and she was forced into an arranged marriage to save her family's business.

Desperate to take control of her own life and prove her capabilities in leading her clan's future on her own, Gabrielle takes one job: save one of their families biggest assets, the Hacienda Terracotta, from crisis, and turn it into a prosperous estate.

Arriving in the humble, lush, and agricultural town of Santa Cruz in search of freedom and healing, she crosses paths with Gabriel Ibarra- a principled and genius college dropout who has one goal: to reclaim their ancestral hacienda from the Mendozas.

In a landscape where ambition and resentment collide, Gabrielle and Gabriel find themselves caught up in a battle not just for land, but for their own sense of justice and redemption. As their fates intertwine, will they become each other's downfall or the unexpected salvation they never sought?
