While family comes first for April, for Max the main thing is to be successful in the corporate world. She loves living in her town and working in the fields. He, despite being half Mexican, has completely forgotten his roots and is happy living in a first world country.
These two people could hardly fall in love, but for different reasons, both arrive, against their will, to settle in Mexico City and their lives begin to change sharply, until they unite in the midst of loneliness and disappointment. in which their respective partners left them.
Debra (Irina Baeva), Max’s wife, decides to hide a pregnancy and resort to abortion without even consulting her husband, who always had enormous desire to be a father, this fractures the marriage, which added to Debra’s unwillingness to adapt to the country from which her parents emigrated years ago, ends in divorce.
For his part, Bruno (Andrés Palacios), the husband of April leaves her alone because her dream is to live in the United States earning dollars to get ahead, following the example of her sister-in-law Julia (Elsa Ortiz), who a year ago decided to cross the border for the same reasons, leaving her two children, Lucero (Paulina Ruiz) and Pancho (Pato de la Garza), in charge of Abril, her sister, and mainly Cielo (Eugenia Cauduro), her mother.
What Bruno and April ignore, is that Julia has been suffering from hell for a year. As an illegal in the United States, his life is not easy. She has to accept degrading jobs because she doesn’t have papers, she exposes herself to the abuse of her employers who sometimes exploit her mercilessly. But since she manages to send money to Mexico for her children every week, the Moreno family believes that Julia is living the American dream and that she is doing great. Julia falls in love with Amaury (Pedro Moreno), a Cuban who works in the same Latin restaurant where she is the cook.
But the urge to earn dollars for her children leaves her no time to Julia for love. Amaury advises her all the time, assuring her that opportunities to progress do exist in the United States, as long as she studies, prepares and resolves her legal situation. Julia repels that she doesn’t have time for any of that, she only cares that her children have food in the pantry, the best clothes, the best schools in Mexico, being clear that her sacrifices are worth it for them.
Max arrives in Mexico to be the CEO of a clothing company and April is presented with the opportunity to be his personal assistant, with one condition: to be single and without children to be available at all times. Because of her financial need, Abril makes the mistake of hiding that she has a son. However, his good will, his charisma and his joy, achieves a good acceptance and awakens in Max his hidden side, the one he did not know or was interested in discovering: his Latin side.
In San Antonio, Bruno meets with Julia and it doesn’t take long for him to live the same nightmare that his sister-in-law is living as an illegal migrant. That is why, as soon as he has the opportunity, Bruno becomes the right hand of Minerva (Jessica Mas), a beautiful but very dangerous woman, head of an immigrant trafficking network, a business that leaves her a lot of money and that has allowed Bruno to mistakenly achieve what he dreamed of: having it all.
Minerva manages its human trafficking network from San Antonio, having Alejo Núñez (Arturo Peniche) as his main accomplice in Mexico City. Alejo is a man who little by little becomes corrupted by his ambition until he crosses unsuspected limits.
After some time, Bruno convinces Abril to travel with her son and start a new life in U.S. For cost reasons, they travel on separate flights. The boy reaches his father’s arms, while April is deported because of Minerva, who arranged for the authorities to discover that April was going to stay illegal, because she was not going to allow her plans to conquer her to be damaged. Bruno.
Without hope of returning to the United States, April asks Bruno to return to Mexico with Hugo (Iker García Meza), her son, but he is no longer willing to have the humble and simple life he had before.
April, desperate for the pain of living away from her son, she swears to herself to do whatever she can to get it back. When Max confesses that he loves her and asks her to marry him, Abril accepts and decides to give herself a new chance at love, since she has also, little by little, sincerely fallen in love with him.
In any case, Abril cannot deny that what most motivates her to accept is to get her son back, because by marrying an American she could enter the United States to rescue her son, who lives very sad because of the abuses of Minerva, Bruno’s lover.
April and Max get married very much in love, but her happiness is more in danger that never, since the sin of having married hiding from Max that she has a son, could provoke the contempt of her new husband, the impossibility of being able to recover her son, and lose absolutely everything.
Max, a man who hates lies, will have to understand the meaning of true love.
Love is knowing how to forgive, and it will be up to him to become the hero that April needs, to help her recover your child, and form a new and solid family together.
