This telenovela was very excellent but it wasn't that popular in New York and Dominican Republic as Gata Salvaje. The actors are great in this soap opera, and they are great in every episode.

Well it's too bad that it only had a few episodes, I wish it would be longer as Gata Salvaje because, most telenovelas are very longer and they put the final episodes in the next year, some telenovelas last a year and a half.

Well, Mariana Seaone is great in this telenovela and she's lucky that she wasn't busted for no reason in one of the episodes, that's the usual things about lead females in telenovelas, Rebeca may have started a little bit with a thud but it ended with a BANG! By discovering that it had multiple endings you know.

Many people in the final episode wanted Martin and Rebeca to be together but Rebeca ended with Eduardo instead, that's the only ending I've seen. Well but Eduardo was best for Rebeca because she would be a great mom for Eduardo and Princesa's little daughter, and the best wife for Eduardo.

On a scale of soap operas like this one I give it a 9/10

...it was not handled well, resulting in lower prime time ratings than the network expected. That was why it ended up in daytime.

Having seen Mariana Seoane before in AMOR GITANO, I thought she was a logical choice for this novela. What I couldn't imagine until I saw it was how illogically her character behaved; what were the writers thinking?

Were the writers also getting lazy when instead of really giving the audience a run for its money they prejudiced the script too heavily in Eduardo's favor? Of course it is equally likely that this happened because the audience fell in love with the "Swept Away" relationship between Martin and Princessa long before the last "chapter" of the story had been written.

Gaby Espino was definitely a stand-out as the trust fund brat who unwillingly falls in love with a headwaiter. The dream sequence in which she sees herself as a mermaid being caught in Martin's fishing net is a hilarious moment in the early part of this series. We want her to fall in love with Martin because by doing so she is hoisted on her own petard. She finally wants something she cannot have and certainly doesn't deserve... the love of a real man with principles. Not quite hidden under black hair dye, the worst haircut I've ever seen on him, and gallons of tanning cream, the very princely Pablo Montero gives the most consistent performance of the cast as the mature and very protective Martin. Most Mexican viewers probably were hoping that Rebeca would come to her senses and see that he was worth a dozen Eduardos or Sergios.

Not to mention that having a father and a son as rivals over the same woman usually leads to major grief.

The female villains of this story -- and there were too many -- were quite over the top and there were the obligatory cat-fights between them, the most amusing of which were between the more mature female characters who were fighting over Sergio.

I suspect that they shot three different finale episodes; it would be interesting to know whether other audiences saw an alternate version.

This is an awful soap opera. I work in an institution that translates this series an I must confess that I haven't seen such things in a long time. I have edited soap operas before, but this seems to be the worst of all. The cast plays so bad that I would rather see cartoons than this (of course, cartoons are funnier). But the play of the actors just sucks. Rebeca's father, Adalberto, is the worst of all. His way of acting made me mad a couple of times. He's got no coherence and... he just plays bad !!! All people say that Rebeca is the most beautiful woman in this entire soap, but I don't really think so. In fact, she's common. Not too beautiful, not too bright and especially, not sane. I can understand she is confused, but not like that - I mean it's not because of her part, I can tell it for sure ! She just plays very bad. And the subject is quite weak. I mean, Miami is just invaded by Latinos ? All the people speak only Spanish ? What is this ? Couldn't they put the action in Central America or at least, in Spain, a country more developed ? And the weather is awful, you can see this clearly, but the crew insists that "it's very beautiful". When you see all the clouds in the sky, you JUST CAN'T SAY THAT THE SUN IS SHINING BRIGHTLY IN THE SKY ! That's all. Sorry for the other people who posted here, but I don't know what they've watched, because this soap seems pretty weak to me.
