Plot

Dulce María Larios is a kindhearted, compassionate and imaginative 5-year-old girl who has recently lost her mother in a tragic skydiving accident. Reeling from the loss of his wife, Dulce María's father, Luciano, sinks into depression and lives abroad for a few years, leaving his daughter and loved ones behind. Dulce María is enrolled in an all-girls Catholic boarding school known as "Reina de America" to be taken care of by the nuns and her uncle Gabriel, who is a priest.
The only relative that visits her is her Aunt Estefania, whom she affectionately calls "Tía Pelucas" as she wears a large and varied set of colorful wigs, instead of showing her real hair. The nuns, for the most part, adore Dulce María, in particular the Sisters Cecilia and Fortunata, who are accomplices in all of her various antics. These antics frequently irk Luciano but are tolerated by the headmistress, the tender and kindly Mother Superior.
Dulce María also has a secret place in the school known as "The old little room." There, her playful imagination comes to life, where she speaks with the spirit of her mother who dispenses advice to her and tells her wonderful stories. Things brighten up for Dulce María when, after a two-year absence, Luciano announces his return to Mexico. But the initial joy fades when her dad arrives with Nicole, a domineering and self-centered woman who is also Luciano's fiancée. Her only reason for being with Luciano is for his money, and she views Dulce Maria as a mere nuisance.
Nicole's plan is to get Luciano's daughter out of her way so she can have him all to herself. Sensing that her father will not be happy being married to Nicole, and not wanting to lose her father's affection, Dulce María sets out to sabotage the relationship and endear her father to Sister Cecilia, who is more of a mother figure than Nicole.
Luciano slowly realizes that he does not love Nicole, while at the same time, he begins feeling a growing attraction to Cecilia. She, in turn, realizes that her religious vocation begins to waver once she realizes that she is in love with Luciano and must decide whether to take her religious vows or give them up and listen to her heart.
