How do people's relationships with the ones they love change when unexpected events threaten normality? The stories in Unforgivable Seasons explore the answers to that question.
Shannon is happily married but has almost no family besides her husband, Charles. When she inherits a fortune from her great-grandmother, everyone around her seems to change, even Charles-are they all after the money? Can she trust anyone?
For sisters Cookie and Candy, life has never been easy, and poverty only accentuates their already strained family situation. Things continue to worsen as they grow up, but does it matter if their relationship is already unsalvageable?
A psychologist helps his patients work through difficulties similar to the struggles he's faced in his past-from which he's never fully recovered. As he continues to grapple with his own emotional disorders, he starts to become overinvolved in his patients' lives.
Focusing on a variety of different people and their family situations, each of these engrossing short stories examines how hardship impacts relationships, whether by strengthening or destroying them. As the characters encounter events that push them to their breaking points, one question remains: Will they find a way to hold on to the ones they love?
