In a small Sicilian village, a widowed midwife's peaceful life is disrupted when her neighbors' jealousy and resentment towards her intensify, causing them to avoid their husbands in her presence.

In a Sicilian village, a stunning American midwife arrives, captivating the men with her beauty. Despite her vow to avoid romance, she's unaware that her presence sets off a chain reaction: men fall under her spell, and their wives become infuriated.

But Jessica, kind-hearted and dedicated to her work, must find a way to convince the locals she's not a troublemaker.
