Husband for Hire (Marido en alquiler) is an American, Spanish-language telenovela devised as a remake of the Brazilian telenovela Fina Estampa which tells the story of Griselda Carrasco, a strong and determined woman who works as a handyman to support her family.
The series stars Sonya Smith, Juan Soler and Maritza Rodriquez and documents the highs and lows of two people who fall in love but are challenged at every turn.
Griselda, played by Smith, is a kind-hearted and determined woman who works extremely hard to give her three children everything they need in life. She is thrown into the deep end of love when she meets Reinaldo, played by Juan Soler, who is an honest and hard-working man.
But unlike the typical love story, Griselda and Reinaldo's relationship is challenged from day one. While Reinaldo has fallen completely in love with the person he deems as perfect, his wife Teresa, played by Maritza Rodriquez, who is a class-conscious and superficial woman, is not happy and will stop at nothing to tear the two apart.
The series documents the complications around love, romance, humour and betrayal.
