Alma's life takes an unexpected turn when she meets a young man named Dario Guerra (Erik Hayser) during her vacation to the coastal town of Paraiso. A passionate and wild sexual encounter leads to a spiraling series of events that leave Alma questioning her own choices and sanity. As Alma tries to escape the memories of her steamy fling with Dario, she realizes that he has a dark and dangerous past that he keeps hidden from her. Dario's obsession with Alma threatens to destroy her career, marriage, and family. As Alma tries to uncover the truth about Dario, she finds herself caught in a web of deceit and betrayal that goes beyond her imagination. Throughout the show, the audience is taken on a tense and gripping journey that explores themes of sexuality, obsession, and betrayal.

Maite Perroni delivers a stunning performance as Alma Solares, portraying a strong, confident woman who is forced to confront her own vulnerabilities and desires. Erik Hayser is equally impressive as Dario Guerra, presenting a charming and menacing character that keeps the audience on edge.

The show does not shy away from sex or graphic violence, making it unsuitable for younger audiences. However, these elements are used to drive the story forward, rather than for shock value. The show is well-paced, with each episode ending on a cliffhanger that leaves the audience eagerly anticipating the next installment. Overall, Dark Desire is a must-watch for fans of psychological thrillers and suspenseful dramas. The show offers a fresh take on the genre, with strong performances and a compelling storyline that keeps the audience engaged.
