Estela Novaes has lived with her father since childhood and grew up trying to find her place in the world. At twenty-six, with a degree in Accounting and pursuing a second degree, she is an intelligent, kind, and incredibly competent woman. But there is one thing she still cannot see: her own worth.
Plus-size, Estela has spent most of her life learning to see herself through the eyes of others. The comments, comparisons, and insecurities have made her believe that her body was a barrier to being desired, loved, and, above all, admired.
Because of this, even though she is an incredible woman, she still looks to others for confirmation that she is enough.

Augusto Brandonni is a wealthy man, a typical businessman in the coffee industry, used to keeping everything around him under control. After experiences that made him believe that getting emotionally involved meant putting his heart in someone else's hands, he decided that relationships were not part of his plans.
Until he falls in love with a twenty-six-year-old woman, a woman he considers beautiful exactly as she is.
The problem?
She is his best friend's daughter.
And she is also his employee.
While Estela tries to discover who she is beneath her insecurities and learn to see the woman standing in front of the mirror, Augusto has to deal with a feeling he never planned to have.
Between reports, coffee, happy hours, and an attraction that becomes increasingly difficult to ignore, the two will discover that perhaps the greatest challenge isn't making the other person fall in love.
Perhaps it is learning to believe that they are worthy of being loved.
Because sometimes, the person who needs to see our worth the most...
is ourselves.
