This is a soap, and not a good one. The plot is thin, there are no likable characters, and the romance is flat.

First off, the writers attempt to be clever by drumming up questionable scenarios/actions to cast doubt on the hero. All it did was make him look suspect and not worthy of the heroine. And made the heroine look stupid and thirsty.

Second, there are no likable characters, well maybe the hero, who is undoubtedly shady but falls for his mark. The heroine is so up and down there is no way in real life a man in his right mind would put up with her violent outbursts, fueled by low self esteem, then crawling back for forgiveness.

Why did they fall in love again?

Third, there isn't any romance. There's tons of steam but we really don't get to see why they fell in love. It's just an annoying loop of them in bed, her kicking him out, followed by her groveling for him to come back.

Does he like youthfulness? Does he admire her for her business acumen?

Does he like it when she cooks for him? Does she like his ability to live in the moment? Does she love the fact he wants to spend time with her?

We don't know because we don't see any of that.

I read the reviews prior to writing mine. I think i understand why the low reviews but from my behalf I think this is a worth watching mini series. Let's start from the obvious the music and the cinematography- views and overall production is really good. The plot makes you think how easy it is to lose yourself in the "norms" either of society or of the family and its dynamics and while living to conform and satisfy these life passes by and you lose yourself and don't live. By choosing the character a women's in her 60s that gets stronger by the episode the main connotations and concept is well projected in a gradual way that is built up episode by episode. All in all it's worth watching this series.

Such a low quality show and waste of time... The weakest script, bad acting , terrible directing, just packed with sex scenes and I don't understand why it was all over French music in the background, isn't it an Italian show ? It was too fast that you cannot make sense of the story, in one episode the guy came, they instantly fell in love, they broke up they made up... all in one episode ....Nope

This is definitely a very soap opera-ish mini series but that's what makes it such a fun ride. It's about an older wealthy woman who is the owner of a luxurious hotel and happens to fall quickly in love with a man half her age. His intentions are incredibly questionable. Her grown children, particularly her eldest son, get involved and try to stop the relationship. Throughout the show, so many hidden family secrets are revealed. There are twists and turns everywhere, it is at times so over the top I couldn't help but laugh. Just when I thought I knew where things were going, another surprise would pop up. I binge watched this on a lazy Sunday and was pleasantly entertained!

"Deceitful Love" was exactly what I needed-a well-timed guilty pleasure that let me escape from reality for a while. The story centers on Gabriella, a sophisticated hotel owner, who finds herself unexpectedly falling for Elia, a young and mysterious stranger. The age difference added a layer of complexity and tension to their romance, which I found fun to watch.

Giacomo Gianniotti, who plays Elia, absolutely captivated me. He is not just beautiful, but has this magnetic presence that pulls you into every scene. His chemistry with Monica Guerritore (Gabriella) was electric, and their love story, with all its ups and downs, felt intense, passionate, and sometimes a little dangerous.

Sure, some parts of the show felt over-the-top, but that's what made it such a fun ride. "Deceitful Love" doesn't aim to be perfect-it's here to entertain, and it does so in spades. The beautiful Amalfi Coast setting, the tangled relationships, and the unpredictable twists kept me hooked from start to finish.

If you're looking for a dramatic, sexy escape that doesn't take itself too seriously, "Deceitful Love" is definitely worth a watch.
