Family secrets are uncovered. We left Sunflower with Jack and Liv reunited and we pick up in Strawberry Hill a few years later. Then journey back in time, uncovering Carmen's past, her secrets unfolding, suspicions confirmed, it all comes to light when Brandon finds his moms journals. We got to know Carmen as a mother and a wife, but her journals reveal a woman that falls deep in love. The traditional dream to marry, make a house a home, and raise a family is all she wants. And when that dream is shattered by Michael, Lauren, and society's expectations she moves on with Sam. But, Michael does not make it easy.Michael, a charismatic, romantic, and a fun man, hard to resist and harder to forget. Sam is reserved, uneasy, and dull. Despite the heartache both men cause Carmen, their love for her is real. From first love magic, to gut wrenching heartbreak, to a rebound marriage, and motherhood. We learn the history surrounding the Lindts and the Whites and at its core is a love story. One afflicted by obstacle after obstacle, the biggest one of all-time.
