Sheridan continues his triangular conundrum while Laurel (the daughter of Layla and Julian's long lost sister Caroline) works through her own relationship with Dena, and Claire, Julian, Layla and Will receive some alarming news.
Back in Chicago, the day after their friends left, and the same day Layla reveals her first publication, Brendan and Kenny have a discussion about the future.
After a long week in Geshichte Falls, we return to Rossford, Indiana and the chapter we had interrupted. Will and Mylo are just returning from their trip to visit Brendan and Kenny. Layla has yet to show her boyfriend her new book, and Dylan is spending the day at his dad Tom's house.
As we begin Part Two of our tale set in Michigan of the late '90's, the day after Thanksgiving leads to some startling revelations and strange bedfellows.
In the fifth Rossford installment, half a decade has passed since our last visit to Rossford. Layla has emerged into a young poet and Fenn deals with life as the father of a teenager. Brendan and Kenny, now settled in Chicago, attempt to make life work as the return of an old love threatens Sheridan and Chay's relationship.
In the aftermath of Thom and Russell's giant fight, they both have something thinking to do, but Chayne has other things on his mind, and so does Patti.
