Synopsis
Three women, all blood relatives, share the same name and destiny. Through maternity, they come face to face with reality, broken romance - each without a mate.
Carmen Teresa, the first, has a life transformed by compulsive love that leads to abandonment of her family, with daughter Carmen Luisa in her arms. She is unaware that as the years pass the story will be repeated through her daughter. However, she remains loyal, ready and willing to offer love and advice to Carmen Luisa.
Carmen Cecilia is raised under her mother's strong, willful influence after Carmen Luisa's torrid romance with a syndicate leader. As a mother, Carmen Luisa is incapable of preventing her daughter from committing the same youthful errors.
In spite of the constant adversities of the two women who are the center of her life, Carmen Cecilia gives all her attention to Arturo. Desperately dominated by family situations, he leaves her. The product of their love will, in time, prove to be Carmen Beatriz.
Three women, three generations, one history that could have ended differently if only one of them had fought for her first love - for the father of her Carmen.
