Synopsis
editOn the day that Arcadia Gómez summons her five nieces to inform them that she will soon be dead, she receives a surprise of devastating proportions: all of them, without exception, have come down with a virus called "impossible love". Mariana, Miranda, Pamela, Julia and Chiqui - modern, enterprising, independent, young women - have all their hearts shattered to pieces by men.
Realizing the degree of destruction caused by the opposite sex, Arcadia decides to take drastic measures. Along with her nieces, she enters the battlefront declaring open war on all the shameless, cunning and unfaithful men who have made them suffer. Now, living under one roof and with one purpose in mind, these six beautiful women, will become a unique army that will use the mightiest weapon nature has given them: the power of their feminine charms. It is an army of women ready for anything... and the war has just begun.
