Plot

[edit]

Set in Miami, Florida, Perro Amor tells the story of two cousins: Antonio "El Perro" Brando (Carlos Ponce) and Camila Brando (Maritza Rodríguez) who have been sleeping with each other because of a bet they made when they were teenagers. Their pact has resulted in a passionate and adventurous sex life where anything goes. The bet however i,s under the condition that neither falls in love with the other nor are they allowed to fall in love with anyone else. If either of them falls in love with the other or anyone else, that person loses the bet.

The two have sex on the morning of Antonio's wedding where he is to marry Daniela (Maritza Bustamante), the daughter of his father's business partner. Before Antonio leaves for his wedding, Camila reminds him of their bet, knowing that he wouldn't leave Daniela at the altar since Daniela's dad is the largest investor in their family's construction company. Antonio spots the caterer's daughter, Sofia (Ana Lucía Domínguez) through the window while getting dressed and takes an interest in her. During the wedding ceremony, Antonio goes through with Camila's bet and refuses to say "I do" and leaves Daniela at the altar. Antonio's behavior jeopardizes an important development project that the Brando Family fortune is tied up in, leaving the Brando's on the brink of bankruptcy.

Meanwhile, the cash-pressed Brando Family business deceive Dagoberto (Gerardo Riveron), the representative of the group of poor homeowners who are said to benefit from the project that Daniela's father is investing in. The Brando's take ownership of the houses in the neighborhood however a significant portion of the family are not aware that the houses were built for the poor homeowners as the project was head by Camila and her husband Gonzalo (Rodrigo de la Rosa). The Brando's refuse to pay damages to Dagoberto and he commits suicide to avoid facing the neighbors who trusted him. His son, Rocky (Khotan Fernández) an honest young man, who dreams of being a musician vows to take revenge on the Brando family.

The economic future of the construction company, the neighborhood and the family is at stake as a result of Camila and Antonio's bet. Antonio's father, Pedro (Victor Camara), cuts him off for being irresponsible. Antonio learns more about Sofia and her honest upbringing and decides to propose to Sofia in an attempt to show his father that he has matured and is willing to make an honest living but Sofia declines his proposal because of his past behaviors and wants nothing to do with him. Camila, who refuses to acknowledge her love for Antonio tries to win him back by making life impossible for both him and Sofia, whom she hates because Antonio has fallen in love her.

Sometime later it is revealed that Camila is not a Brando at all and that her mother and "father" were just friends since her "father" was closeted. Her biological father is a man named Luigi Dorado, a drifter who mostly takes advantage of women. It is revealed that Luigi knew about Camila and blackmailed her mother for money in return for his 30 years of silence. Around this time Luigi enters into a relationship with Cecilia (Zully Montero), Antonio's grandmother and matriarch of the Brando family as a ploy to scare Camila into thinking that he will reveal he truth of her paternity to Cecilia. It is later revealed that Cecilia knew that her son wasn't Camila's father. Cecilia, suspecting that Luigi's intentions weren't genuine, asks Rosario, Sofia's mother and her best friend, Ligia's daughter to try and find out what Luigi is up to. Luigi deduces Cecilia's plan and attempts to rape Rosario but police arrive before Luigi can commit the act and is sentenced to jail for attempted rape. Camilla, growing tired of Luigi's blackmailing, decides to have him killed. He is attacked by Alejandro Vallejo, a fellow prisoner, paid by Jairo Chaparro in exchange for his freedom. The plan fails as Luigi wasn't killed but injured and Chaparro never intended to free Vallejo and only used him for his dirty work. Later Camila posts Luigi's bail, in hopes that he forgives and forgets about everything that transpired.

Meanwhile Antonio and Sofia grow closer and marry despite Camila's attempts to separate them. Rocky who also has feelings for Sofia, tries to persuade her against marrying Antonio. It becomes apparent that Camila and Rocky's respective feelings for Sofia and Antonio and their meddling are the reasons that the couple always get into arguments and misunderstandings.

Despite his marriage to Sofia, Antonio struggles with his addiction for sex and continues to conduct his trysts with Camila and other women. When Sofia finds out that she's pregnant, she is excited and goes to the club where Antonio works to tell him but finds him having sex with another woman. This infuriates her and struggles with the decision to end her marriage.

Antonio realizes that he loves Sofia and decides to break off the bet with Camila and stop conducting affairs with other women. He decides to seek counseling for his sex addiction. Antonio returns from rehab after six months just as Sofia reaches the last stages of her pregnancy. He makes an effort to be a model father and a good husband but Sofia has grown tired of Antonio's past antics and is determined to file for divorce. Nany, one of Antonio's past lovers comes back in town and tells Antonio about her AIDS diagnosis. Antonio goes into a state of shock and doesn't show up for the birth of his and Sofia's child. Sofia gets upset because she had begun to believe that Antonio has changed and delivers their child, a boy, on her own.

Camila finds out about Nany's status and thinks that Antonio is HIV positive. She tells Sofia that about the Antonio's HIV status and believes that both Sofia and her son are both positive as well. The news about Antonio's HIV status spreads and everyone who had sexual history with both Antonio and Camila are worried that they could be infected too, causing a big problem as Antonio had many sexual partners. After a slight scare, and after several blood tests, it's discovered that everyone is negative. Camilla claims to be positive in an attempt to get closer with Gonzalo after he seemingly started falling for Daniela. Camila and Gonzalo realize that their scheming is catching up to them and plan one final big heist, by selling multiple properties twice, and defrauding every 2nd buyer (being that the first buyer would be the legitimate buyer, and everyone after that, invalid) and keeping the money. But their plot is exposed, and Gonzalo ends up in jail while Camila is kept free after she blamed all of the fraud on him despite being the mastermind behind it all. Camila, now working alone, enlists the help of Chaparro once again. Chaparro decides they need to put all the fraud money that Camila and Gonzalo embezzled and into a bank account in the Bahamas, under a fake name, the fake name being "Alejandro Vallejo", the same prisoner who he promised earlier to release from jail, and didn't. A problem arises, when the Alejandro finds out their plan. He blackmails Chaparro and as a result Chaparro calls for Vallejo's death and has it arranged to look like a suicide. Gonzalo who had just been in the room with Vallejo, realizes that it wasn't a suicide after all, and that he was ordered to be killed.

Meanwhile Luigi, who has since been in a legitimate relationship with Clemencia, Antonio's mother and Pedro's estranged wife realizes that Camila may be the real criminal behind everything that's going on. It is revealed that Luigi visited Vallejo in prison the day he was murdered and Vallejo told him everything he knew and warned that if he was killed, it would have been Chaparro's doing since Vallejo himself was asked to kill Luigi earlier, he was fully aware of what Chaparro was capable of. Vallejo also revealed and provided proof that Chaparro was behind the money laundering scheme.

Meanwhile Rocky has found success and lets his fame go to his head. He becomes arrogant and unpleasant to everyone around him, only being driven by only two things, revenge on the Brandos for his father's suicide and his love for Sofia. Benny quits the band because of Rocky's behavior.

Antonio, realizing Sofia doesn't want to be with him anymore and refusing to go back to Camila, meets and falls in love with a veterinarian called Miranda (Angélica Celaya). Sofia also gives in to Rocky's advances and falls in love with him and they become engaged. Around this time, Cecilia is suffers from heart disease and is in need of a heart transplant leaving Sofia and Pedro to run the company, trying to undo the bad deeds of Camila and Gonzalo. Gonzalo later exposes Camila and Jairo's plan. When Camila gets word of the developments, she decides she to kill Cecilia in the hospital and nearly succeeds but Cecilia is saved by Antonio and Miranda. Camila's attempt to kill Cecilia only makes her heart transplant more urgent.

Luigi, knowing all the truth, prepares to kill Jairo for all the misdeeds he has committed, and it culminates into a shootout, where Luigi is killed. Luigi turns out to be an organ donor and his heart is given to Cecilia. Cecilia fully recovers and develops a new plan to save her company and resolve the issues of the poor homeowners.

Camila and Jairo team up again to kidnap Sofia's baby and escape from the country but when the police corner her, Camila commits suicide by shooting herself on a boat. Sofia breaks off her engagement to Rocky and reveals she is still in love with Antonio. Antonio proposes to Marinda because he believes that it would be hopeless to pursue Sofia now that she's a married woman but calls off his engagement when he finds out that Sofia never married Rocky. He declares his love for Sofia and the two begin to work on their relationship now that they're both single. Antonio and Sofia get married and live happily together raising their son.
