Telemundo delivers another dose of anti-establishment femininity soon with the channel's new telenovela All Roads Lead To Love.
The channel's 2015 novela Husband for Hire starred a handyman female lead and now All Roads Lead to Love puts the spotlight on a truck driving chikita: Eva, played by telenovela star Edith González.
The series replaces Under the Same Sky when it wraps at the end of July and starts on Monday, 1 August at 17h10.
It follows the trials and tribulations of Eva, a tough and determined woman who makes a living as a truck driver, following in the footsteps of her father who made a living the same way.
This is the official description:
When Eva inherits her father’s trucking empire, her life starts to fall into place. She found love, settled down to start a family and she's at the helm of a business that she loves.
Fast forward a few years, and all is not well in paradise.
Between her two troubled daughters, with issues ranging from Asperger’s to substance abuse, a sister who envies her deeply, and a best friend who is also her worst enemy, Eva has enough to contend with. Then the serial infidelity of her husband, Armando, sets off a chain reaction leading to intrigue, murder, conspiracy and potentially even Eva’s imprisonment.
Thrown into the mix is her growing attraction for the steamy Pablo. He’s a handsome and noble ex-cop who is ten years her junior. But with a tragedy in his past, Pablo has his own secrets, and it’s no coincidence that his path has crossed with the Soler family’s.
Arap Bethke/Jorge Luis Pila/Erika de la Rosa
Telemundo favourite Jorge Luis Pila (Part of Me, Fearless Heart, Aurora) plays Eva's husband Armando and Under the Same Sky star Erika de la Rosa plays Eva's creepy, jealous friend Marlene.
The role of Pablo is played by African-born Mexican actor Arap Bethke.
