Read the spicy romance that became a TikTok and Netflix sensation
Raquel lvarez has one goal - to become a psychologist. Well, that and to get Ares Hildago to notice her.
For as long as Raquel can remember, she has been obsessed with Ares - her rich, hot, mysterious neighbour. Even though he lives next door, Raquel has never spoken to him - until a chance encounter reveals her crush is anything but unrequited, and their steamy attraction grows into something much more.
Raquel is all in with Ares. But Ares can't, or won't, commit, as his struggle with personal and family responsibilities leaves little room for falling in love.
What burns bright burns fast, but for Ares and Raquel, can it last?
A trailer and new photos that dropped Thursday show the next steps in the Shonda Rhimes-created Netflix sensation, which returns this season with main character Penelope Featherington, played by Nicola Coughlan, who has left behind her crush on Colin Bridgerton, portrayed by Luke Newton, after he talked badly about her last season.
He eventually mends fences with Penelope enough to mentor her to find a husband, but questions whether he is interested in Penelope, too. Things get interesting when Penelope Featherington finds beef with Eloise, played by Claudia Jessie, who has a new unlikely friend.
The next-gen costume drama's new season, steeped in romance and riches, is still missing its secret ingredient: breakout star, actor Reg-Jean Page, who left the show after Season 1 amid other acting projects and a (almost) tied-up storyline.
Bridgerton's third season is slated to return on this spring in two, four-episode parts with Part 1 featuring the season's first four episodes which premiere on May 13 and Part 2 which premiere on on June 13.
