After years apart, childhood sweethearts Tita and Pedro are reunited - but a deeply rooted family tradition rocks their plan to marry.

Forced to help prepare for a wedding between her beloved and her sister, a heartbroken Tita throws her emotions into the cake, sparking Nacha's memories of her own tragic love story with Miguel. Meanwhile, as trouble brews between his father and his friend Juan, Pedro chooses a side.

As the rebels continue their rise, Pedro commits himself to the Revolution, while Gertrudis makes a surprising move of her own. Meanwhile, now living in the same house, Tita and Pedro attempt to steal moments together under Rosaura's watchful eye.

While tending to a pregnant Rosaura, Tita learns of her sister's unforgivable betrayal. But when their confrontation devolves into a frightening medical crisis, Tita is forced to put aside her feelings to help her sister. Meanwhile, Pedro finds himself in tricky situations with federal agents and his father.

As Rosaura struggles to bond with her son Roberto, Elena limits Tita's access to him. Meanwhile, Gertrudis risks her safety to meet her nephew, and Elena is flooded with memories of her greatest love Treviño. As he fights for his freedom, Pedro makes a drastic decision that tears him away from his family and Tita.

After Rosaura sends heartbreaking news to the family, Tita not only loses all desire to cook but finally finds the courage to stand up to her mother. Meanwhile, a vindictive Pedro leads Gertrudis and the rest of the revolutionaries into a battle with his uncle, and Elena seizes back her power - with devastating consequences.
