Plot Caer en tentación is a thrilling story of two families marked by a tragedy that discovers the infidelity between two married couples. The story is told in two different timelines: the past (pasado) and the present (época actual).
Raquel and Damián Becker are a wealthy and happy couple with two children, Mía and Fede. Destiny leads Damián to meet Carolina and feel an undeniable attraction towards her. Damián did not know that Carolina is already married to Santiago Álvarado, a construction architect with whom she has two children, Nico and Lola. When Raquel drops off her son Fede at school, she accidentally backs her car to Santiago's truck, and they realize that their sons know each other. Raquel volunteers to pay for the damages but Santiago refuses. Raquel insists and visits the Álvarado family's house alongside Damián. The two couples become great friends, but the forbidden love between Damián and Carolina is stronger than their marriage commitment and both decide to deceive to their spouses. One night, Damián and Carolina have a terrible car accident at the forest. Rescuers only find a seriously injured Damián, and Carolina has mysteriously disappeared from the scene. During the investigation by the police, Raquel and Santiago learns that their spouses are lovers.

Reception Critical reception Writing for Milenio, Álvaro Cueva praised Caer en tentación as a masterpiece for its storytelling, production and acting performances of the entire cast, He states that "this isn't your typical story. It's a plot that questions love, desire, fidelity, and even the very value of family. As if that weren't enough, this story—which is powerful, dangerous, and controversial—is told in two different time periods in every episode." Cueva also lauded the finale episode and wrote, "Caer en tentación is not only fabulous for having kept us glued to the television for so long looking at such a complex issue. It's fabulous for its extremely high level of ethical, artistic and editorial consistency."
