“I Love You, Mom”
Police sergeant Shannon Stevens, her husband, college professor Dennis, and their daughters, sixteen-year-old Abby and ten-year-old Zoe, are an African-American family living the middle-class dream—until Jamie Douglas, an abused, white, runaway thirteen-year-old, enters their lives as a foster child, reigniting a painful loss from Shannon’s past.
“Three Sisters”
Sister 1. Amanda Morris is the poster girl for “Rich Bitch,” until she meets Chris Will. Sister 2. Carrie Morris from “Manda’s” past. Sister 3. Hailey Will, Chris’s younger sister. Amanda’s problems stem from guilt upon guilt, until her path crosses with Justine and she finds out what real trouble is. Carrie, Hailey, and Justine create the perfect storm for Amanda.
“Lost and Found”
Twenty-eight-year-old Gina Keller and sixty-four-year-old Mark Newman suffer devastating losses; her one-year-old daughter and his wife of thirty-three years. Fate brings them together as they search for the final solution to their pain, but helps them decide they could and should go on. This new father-daughter relationship, opposed by her mother and his sister, is further complicated by the arrival of his son, Craig.
