Next, comes “Sebastian, Revisited,” which premiered on August 6, and, as Hallmark notes, sees “Chelsea and Knightly team up and get back to work in Paris. Meanwhile, French photographer Sebastian re-enters Chelsea’s life.” During the next episode, called “Knightly,” things take a bit of an unexpected turn when Chelsea and her previously (highly) disliked coworked “are surprised to find themselves growing closer during their time together in Paris, as their big donor meeting finally approaches.”
The story then returns to Chelsea’s journey when she’s “[e]ncouraged by Knightly to seek out answers to the last few lingering questions about her past loves,” according to Hallmark. This prompts her to travel to Spain, where she heads to Marcos’ vineyard, in the episode which premiered on August 20, deemed “Marcos, Revisited.”
The final and sixth episode will premiere on Thursday, August 27, on Hallmark+, which means now is the perfect time to start the series so you can catch up before the story wraps up.
