The Cherry on the Cactus

Stepanida Kozlova, a star of the fashion world and a one-woman band with a diploma in transforming dull hens into dazzling queens, always knew: there are many clients, but true friends are few and far between. And then her neighbor, the beautiful, smart, and stylishly packaged Lisa Maximova, suddenly declares: “I need a hypnotist! Let them wipe from my mind the memory of what I learned.” One meeting in a pastry shop with a strange lady turned her life into a Mexican soap opera with elements of a thriller. It turns out her parents are not her real parents, and her sister is the owner of a chain of pet stores called “Paws and Tails.” Lisa wanted only a husband and children, but instead got a secret from the maternity hospital, midwives with dark pasts, and a sudden sister who brought up the topic of witches and curses. Fortunately, Stepanida Kozlova is always nearby – for only she can untangle the complicated, much like shampoo and conditioner in a beauty salon. The main thing is not to confuse where the truth is and where there is just a well-done hairstyle.
