RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

Two weeks before the divorce he never wanted becomes final, Lucio Cruz receives a phone call from his brother-in-law Dante. His estranged wife has been ill and has been asking for him. He rushes home to find that Anabella doesn't remember the last 5 years...she still thinks they're about to elope instead of already being married. Plus she has a secret that caused her to push for the divorce in the first place.

There was one thing I had an issue with. Ana, at times, acted like a spoiled brat and I just wanted to tell her to grow up and stop acting so childish. Lucio, on the other hand, was a great hero. He loved her so much that he wanted her to be happy...even if it meant her divorcing him. But the minute he heard she needed him, he was there for her immediately.
