Amber Patterson Parrish is still clinging to her high-society status while Jackson sits in prison, but his release - and her dwindling funds - threaten it all. Daphne, long free of Jackson, is forced back to Bishop's Harbor when her daughter runs away to see him. And when Daisy Ann Briscoe, a figure from Amber's past, returns seeking revenge, old lies collide with new schemes in a dangerous fight for control.

Amber/Lana - The current Mrs. Parrish
Daphne - The first Mrs. Parrish
Jackson - Amber's husband
Daisy Ann - Someone from Amber's past
Tallulah & Bella - Jackson and Daphne's daughters

Amber is living in luxury while Jackson serves time but the money is running out. She begins selling off his belongings and plotting to flee before his release.
Jackson is released early, discovers what she's been doing, and tells her he won't kill her - if she helps him get back with Daphne.
We meet Daisy Ann Briscoe, Amber's former stepdaughter from The First Shot. Daisy Ann runs a successful jewelry company, White Orchid. She openly despises Amber, believing she murdered her father.
Amber finds a stash of smuggled diamonds Jackson had hidden away and secretly sells them, using the money to buy shares of White Orchid through a shady partner.
Daisy Ann finds out about Amber's real identity (Lana) and her past.
Jackson pressures Daphne back into his orbit when her daughter Tallulah runs away to see him. Daphne refuses to poison her daughters against their father, leaving her vulnerable to his manipulations.
Jackson drugs Daphne and stages incidents to make her appear unstable. He files for custody, threatening to take the girls permanently if she resists.
Amber and Jackson double-cross each other. Amber tries to become a majority shareholder in White Orchid, but Jackson tips Daisy Ann off. Daisy Ann issues fake stock certificates to expose Amber's scheme.
Unbeknownst to Jackson, Daisy Ann has her own plan. She lures him to her house, where Daphne is waiting - and the FBI swoops in. Jackson is arrested in a sting for financial crimes.
Daphne escapes with her daughters, aided by Daisy Ann, finally breaking free of Jackson.
Jackson is later assaulted by the men who own the diamonds Amber stole and sold. Unable to repay them, he is left alive but trapped in locked-in syndrome.
Amber is arrested for her crimes and caught trying to flee with her son. Daisy Ann exposes her as her father's killer.
After Amber's arrest, someone posts her bond. She assumes it's Jackson, but it's actually Jackson's criminal associates, who tell her she has something that belongs to them - the diamonds.
