Does Wes play a large role in the books?
|
up to where I've read, no. However he played a more vindictive role in the books when Abby moved back to Chesapeake Shores. It was still the same story with Wes' girlfriend Gabrielle doing a dirty deal. But Trace poses more of a threat, I think, for Abby considering his career path being a lot more stable in the books. I don't want to give it away, but towards the end of the book, Wes isn't so much of a threat. I think that's why we've barely seen him in the second season.

I thought when he sort of got down on one knee in the episode before the finale (I believe) it seemed like huge foreshadowing that a marriage proposal was in the works. I actually thought it might have happened in the finale but it didn't. I think a marriage proposal is coming very soon in season 3, if we get a season 3.

If their relationship can survive
this, then yeah, I think a marriage proposal would be a definite next step. I feel like when they would say "i miss you" it was a premature "i love you" but their relationship, their grownup relationship wasn't there yet.

So true. Abby's children play part in how things have turned out. The other thing is the family is wealthy. Not just Mick's money but Abby has money due to her career too. She could easily take the family plane (they have a plane, right?) and spend time with Trace during these six months. She does have the means to go there. But with the girls, it's definitely not possible.

Not take the family plane. You know Mick is quite the traveler lol But she could take time off work a few days for a long weekend here and there to visit Trace. It's totally possible. Not everything has to be one sided and both suffer in the relationship.
It'll be a definite test in their relationship, but it's one they can survive. I mean they survived Abby leaving and coming back 17 years later. They survived she getting married and getting divorced and having two kids in between and figuring out how they can come together and have it make sense for everyone. They can whether six months

Agreed. The only thing I thought was good on John's end was by going to the prosecutor and supporting Trace. You have to wonder if he went there though to thicken the guilt Trace would feel knowing John also went to bat for him. He did reject Trace right after that and it wasn't until later (with the band a possibility again) that he seemed to have forgiven him, rather quickly like you said. I just don't know what his motives are. He continues to come across as shady, always having something up his sleeve.

I'm thinking John isn't being so honest in what happened that night of the accident. Was he as paralyzed as he put to Trace. Now it looks like the accident never happened. I thought, even if John is walking, that the accident would be a bigger issue. In the first season, John was in and out of surgery just to stay alive. Now he's live and kicking with a family? I know sometimes it's bad writing. I just don't see John as a good guy. The way he's acting now...he's far from innocent. I think John went to bat for Trace with that warrant was because Trace wasn't completely at fault. No one talks about what happened that night. All they mention is everyone was tired and Trace shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel. Was Trace drinking? Was John able to drive but had been drinking. I just don't trust that John is telling the truth about that night. I don't think Trace remembers all that much or just isn't saying anything either. Was Leigh with them that night? Maybe she can clear things up? I see her being the mediator between John and Trace, oddly enough. I don't hate Leigh, I just don't like what she brings to the table.

Absolutely. The other thing is Mick might be pissed that Trace left Abby too. It might remind him of Megan leaving for NY and what that felt like. Granted, Mick brought that on himself but he still could connect with the pain of Megan leaving like Abby is feeling the pain of Trace leaving too. It will be interesting to see how Mick reacts to Trace leaving the club and in his mind, leaving his daughter too.
|
If we do get a season 3, I want there to be a conversation about (either current or flashbacks) of Mick talking to Abby about the night and days after that Megan left. I know Trace is saying six months, but Megan said she would send for the kids when she got settled. Well, we know that story. Mark Hall said that if this tour goes well, it could be the first of many. So it's the same story. Trace promised six months. But what happens when the fast lane catches them and more tour offers with a lot of money and more music opportunities. What happens then?

How do we not get a season 3 with record breaking ratings?!?!?!
Chesapeake Shores: Season Two Finale Ends on a High Note in the Ratings
|
this is what pisses me off. the story is great, the ratings are great, but yet we are sitting on pins and needles waiting to see if we're gonna get a season 3.
what scares me is that it'll turn out like the end of Rookie Blue was. We waited, waited and waited some more to find out we weren't getting a season 7. Like we just got blown off and didn't matter. The ratings were great on there too. I know ABC is a bigger network and things are different with bigger networks versus smaller networks like Hallmark.
I just don't want to say goodbye to this amazing series.
