第二季故事紧接第一季结尾，Aine(AislingBea)和姐姐Shona(SharonMorgan)的生活发生了很多变化。Aine开始逐渐把疗养院的时光抛之脑后，不再那么小心翼翼地生活，而这可能并不是特别明智。她和Richard(TobiasMenzies)会放手爱一场吗？又或者两人之间的雇用关系，以及Richard儿子的存在，会阻碍他们更进一步呢？也可能这不过是一场有点小性感的情绪危机？尽管和商业伙伴Charlotte(IndiraVarma)有着偷偷一吻，但Shona还是接受了Vish的求婚。随着婚礼需要各种计划，她该搬去和Vish同居了吗，她能告诉Vish发生了什么吗？婚礼上她真的得穿裙子吗，还是说问题在于她是否架得住一套白色婚纱？
