The Episode Review
In the concluding chapter of Devotion: A Story of Love and Desire, Carlo and Margherita are finally parting ways. However, there is still an inkling that a second season could materialize, focusing on the pair potentiality getting back together. Personally though, I’d like it if that doesn’t happen.
In the third and fourth episodes of the show, it appeared that Carlo and Margherita were trying to get back together. However, their biggest inspirations have been time apart from one another. In episode 3, they went on a trip to Sicily and in episode 4, they went on a trip to Venice. ..
The show has been a bit predictable at times and the music has been ill-fitting too, with lots of pop tracks that give this a much cheesier feel than it perhaps should. It’s still an enjoyable ride, but this final episode leaves things on an ambiguous note.
In Devotion, a story of love and desire, we follow the journey of a young woman as she falls in love with a man who is also in love with another woman. She is drawn to him for his passion and his desire for something more than just sex. She finds herself falling for him even though he is not interested in her romantically.

She starts to see the value in their relationship and begins to realize that she may have found the one true love after all.
