It's been revealed that season two will pick up immediately after the events of season one

It's no wonder that fans are pleased as season one was released more than a year ago, in May 2020. It ended on a major cliffhanger that saw JoAnna's character Maddie's son, Kyle, and a mystery passenger involved in a car crash, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats.

Speaking to Parade earlier this year, JoAnna opened up about what fans can expect from the new episodes and revealed that season two picks up immediately after the events of season one. She said: "There is no time jump. You will literally pick up right after the accident, and then just hold on to your hats cause the next 10 episodes are gonna be a wild ride."

She also teased that season two will deliver on even more drama and set things up for a possible third instalment, adding: "You are not leaving season two without wondering what the heck is gonna happen in Season three. I can assure you that. Far more than who's in the car."
