Plot

Alexia ( Deborah Secco), Luna ( Juliana Paiva) and Kyra ( Vitória Strada) are three women who meet in Cancún and witness the murder of a powerful judge. They enter the Witness Protection Program and get sent to São Paulo, changing their names to Josimara, Fiona and Cleyde. They are presumed dead to protect them from the killers. Dominique (Guilhermina Guinle) is a dangerous woman who ordered the judge to be killed and is also the aunt of Renzo ( Rafael Cardoso), who had a romance in with Alexia in Mexico. Alexia is an unsuccessful actress who had just received her first starring role in a telenovela. Alexia was always ignored by her mother (Débora Olivieri), who never hid her favoritism for her younger daughter, Petra (Bruna Guerin), an ambitious woman who wants to win over her rich and widowed cousin Alan (Thiago Fragoso). Luna and her father, Mário (Murilo Rosa), were abandoned by her mother, Helena (Flávia Alessandra), in Mexico when she was four years old. Helena crossed the border to the United States, promising to earn money and never returned. Kyra was about to marry Rafael.

Alexia, Luna and Kyra are convinced to use their new identities to infiltrate in their real lives. Alexia gets a job as Rafael's secretary in order to keep him away from his ex, Renatinha (Juliana Alves), who takes advantage of Kyra's fake death to get him back. Kyra works as a nanny for Alan so that Ignário ( Otávio Augusto), Alexia's grandfather who has Alzheimer's disease, does not forget about his granddaughter. Luna infiltrates the life of her mother, who married a millionaire and is now a powerful businesswoman. Luna works as her assistant and will try to find out why she abandoned her.
