Facing this tribulation together propels Skyler and Mallory on an unexpected journey filled with miraculous joy and overwhelming challenges that come together, piece by piece, to quilt the story of their lives. Their odyssey culminates in courageous, life-changing decisions as they fight for love and self-discovery.
