Barrera de amor is a Mexican telenovela produced by Ernesto Alonso for Televisa and originally broadcast on Canal de las Estrellas from October 10, 2005, to May 12, 2006. It is based on an original story by Liliana Abud and was adapted by Orlando Merino and Jaime García Estrada. The telenovela stars Yadhira Carrillo and Sergio Reynoso and was the final production by legendary producer Ernesto Alonso. The story follows María Teresa “Maite” Galván, a young woman deeply in love with the widowed veterinarian Luis Antonio Romero. Their happiness is shattered by the cruelty of the powerful Valladolid family, whose lies, abuse, and thirst for revenge force the couple apart. As Maite struggles against injustice and betrayal, she must fight to protect her loved ones and overcome the barriers that stand between her and true love.
