To Have and to Hold (2014)
Married mother of two Ella bumps into her schoolday crush during a hens' weekend. They spend a night of passion together but Ella soon realises she doesn't want to jeopardise her marriage to Greg. But Callum wants more and makes plans to move on from his own marriage to Liz, who has little time or sympathy for their teenage daughter Phoebe. Meanwhile Ella's friend Imogen finally realises that slacker Pete, the father of her daughter Indigo, is not someone she can rely on. This story about temptation and the lure of a different existence offers an interesting, often thought-provoking, take on the challenges of relationships and family life.
