Barbarita stands out for her beautiful face and skin. She endures a life of poverty, and is forced to run away from her town due to a crime she did not commit. Her life will totally change when she becomes involved with the Aristiguieta family, and when she meets her new love, Miguel, a successful workaholic man.

This is the foundation of a great love story, one that emerges between two worlds involving lies and money, and whose flavor intertwines in a rich aroma of milk and coffee.
