Gloria and Ceferino are two totally opposite people. He is a Galician doctor, serious and circumspect; she, on the other hand, is a beautiful Andalusian, rich and with an outgoing and dominant character. However, Gloria makes a surprising and unusual decision: to become a nun. By chance, she is assigned to a sanatorium of which Dr. Ceferino has been appointed as the new director. Love will arise between them, but they cannot marry because she is a nun.[2]
