Product Description

Milagros, a young girl raised in an orphanage, is hired as a servant for the wealthy and powerful Belmonte family. The Belmontes disapprove of the girl’s coarse manner, except for family matriarch, Regina, who takes Milagros under her wing. Alejandro, the handsome, womanizing grandson, becomes fascinated with Milagros, and though she resists his advances, she falls in love with him. This doesn’t sit well with either Cousin Hugo, who wants Milagros for himself, or Andrea, Alejandro’s ex-fiancée, and they reveal a well-kept family secret that could destroy the couple’s chances for happiness.

Customer Reviews

The product's great-it's the story I'm not crazy about!
I teach an upper-level Spanish class in a high school and the students really wanted to see an authentic telenovela in installments during the school year. I read reviews of a lot of storylines and checked out the scene selections of various popular titles. This novela seemed to be relatively "PG" and so I gave it a go!

I would have liked Spanish subtitles to go along with the Spanish audio but only English subtitles are available. The zippy Mexican Spanish can be a little hard to capture so subtitles are important to me. When the English comes up on screen I feel like I'm "cheating".

The main character, "Mili", is a little abrasive for my taste. I'm trying not to let her obnoxious personality get in the way of my enjoying the story. I have to say that the high-schoolers don't seem to mind her as much as I do. They like seeing her get way up in the face of ol' Alejandro.

Lots of people really loved this novela and at least it's contemporary. The final chapter aired in June of 2008 so it's only about a year old. That helps the clothes, cars, etc. look like they belong in this millenium. I think a 1980's novela wouldn't hold my class's attention. (That being said...check out Cinco Amigas. A little dated but kids get into the story. Available on Amazon!)

Love my novela!!!
I'm a very satisfied customer. Received it in less than a week and in perfect condition. I will be purchasing more items from you. Thank you:)

Can't wait to buy it!
I love this novela!
I have been waiting since the grand finale to watch it all over again from the beginning! It will be great to see it all at my own pace on DVD.
