This is one of two telenovelas starring Marlene Favela and Mario Cimarro as the main protagonists, the other being Los Herederos Del Monte from Telemundo.
She lives with her drunkard father Anselmo, her sisters Mayrita and Karina, her stepmother Maria Julia, and her brother Ivan.
She has no choice but to work during day as a lunch girl picking up food from the workers in the Arismendi's land; and at night, as a bartender in a nightclub in order to be able to sustain her family who lives in a small house next to the fabulous ranch of the wealthy Arismendi family.
Luis Mario Arismendi is a handsome, educated young man who is the heir to his family fortune.
Luis Mario decides to return from New York to take over the family business – the ranch – which is not in good financial standing.
Sometime later, Luis Mario decides to leave for New York, hoping to make money to save his family ranch.
It's not until later during the show that Rosaura revealed to Luis Mario that Eva was responsible murdering their unborn child by shooting her while she was riding on a horse.
Her stepmother and half-sister try to rob her of this but Claudia, Dona Cruz's only daughter, who employs Rosaura and her brother Ivan, becomes suspicious.
Rosaura becomes a sophisticated lady that will use her fortune to ruin all of those who harmed her in the past, and surely enough she does, including Luis Mario.
Her revenge begins on a night when Rosaura and Claudia attend a gallery show and sees Luis Mario, his believed-to-be dead wife, Camelia, Eva, and Eduarda.
