synopsis
Three women think they have found the perfect man. For New York heiress Patricia, he’s a wild adventurer who offers her freedom from her mother’s cloying ambitions. For Lorena in Chicago, he’s every bit as idealistic as she is, a lover of poetry and a man who recognizes the spark of passion beneath the buttoned-down lawyer’s lapels. And for Miami’s fiery Cici, he’s the only man whose flames burn as bright as her own.Driven by passion--and the exhortations of famed astrologer Walter Mercado, whose televised horoscope readings seem tailor-made for each woman--Cici, Lorena and Patricia separately fly to Los Angeles to surprise ‘Papi Chulo,’ two by plane, and one, Cici, in a car she is supposed to deliver for a friend. The three women converge on one LA home where they are shocked to discover their three perfect men are really just one man. Tomas Fuentes is an advertising executive at the top of his game. Handsome, sophisticated and witty, Tomas’s equal passion for three dynamic, beautiful women has landed him in trouble--big trouble. Between beauty pageants, vicious gangsters and a crowded Latin dance festival, the three women embark on a journey of friendship, resourcefulness and self-discovery as they wait for Tomas to wake up and choose one of them. Though all three think Tomas is the prize, their true reward turns out to be a lot more than any of them ever expected.
