Plot

Ana Julia Briceño is an OB-GYN who is happily married to Reinaldo Galbadon, a pediatrician. She has everything she can ask for: a good job, a loving husband and the friendship provided by her best friend, Valeria Velutini. However, she cannot bear children due to a medical problem affecting her uterus. When she discusses the issue with her friend Valeria over Reinaldo's refusal to hire a surrogate, Valeria offers a suggestion: that she become the surrogate, on condition that Reinaldo does not find out about it.

Valeria then gets implanted with one of Ana Julia's eggs that has been fertilized by Reinaldo's sperm. However, the situation changes when Ana Julia is involved in a plane crash that leaves here with a severe case of memory loss. Everyone on board of the plane is considered dead. Devastated, Reinaldo and Valeria find comfort in each other's arms, leading them to spend the night together. After this, Valeria's pregnancy starts showing, and she tells Reinaldo that he is the father, without telling him the truth that Ana Julia is the biological mother of the child that she is carrying.

Meanwhile, in the Amazon jungle, Ana Julia is being cared for by Bayardo Santa Cruz, the man who rescued Ana Julia. After a turn of unfortunate events that sees Ana Julia land in jail, she finally recovers her memory and through the help of Bayardo, escapes back home. But when she finally reaches home, she is shocked to find out that her husband and best friend are a couple while, unknown to Reinaldo, they have built a life based on a lie. Ana Julia and Valeria now become rivals, as Ana Julia tries to regain what is rightfully hers while Valeria tries to hold onto the life that she has created with Reinaldo.
