<p>Every marriage has its seasons...It’s autumn when we meet Tess, but her relationship with Richard is in a deep, cold winter. A winter so harsh, their union may never see the bright light of spring.</p>

As the seasons change and the cracks let in more light, the family might just be able to start to heal.Every marriage has its seasons...It’s autumn when we meet Tess, but her relationship with Richard is in a deep, cold winter.
