En nombre del amor (English: In the Name of Love)[1] is a Mexican telenovela produced by Carlos Moreno Laguillo for Televisa.

It is a remake of Cadenas de amargura, written by María del Carmen Peña and Cuauhtémoc Blanco[2] and produced in 1991.

In the Name of Love is a traditional story that shows the values and customs of some provincial corner of the Mexican Republic in the current era.

Paloma is a girl who, after the tragic death of her parents, is forced to live in the house of her two spinster aunts, Macarena and Carlota.

Macarena is affectionate, supportive and establishes a close relationship with her niece, while Carlota is repressive, authoritarian and it seems that she enjoys making Paloma's life miserable.
