“A heartfelt drama set against the sweeping vistas of Texas Hill Country, Ransom Canyon follows the intersecting lives of deep-rooted families in a town where your neighbors know everyone’s business,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “Season two picks up six months after the events of the first season, with rancher Staten Kirkland (Duhamel) fighting to reclaim his legacy after being unseated as trustee of his family’s Double K Ranch, while musician Quinn O’Grady (Kelly) must decide if her heart truly belongs in the small town she once tried to outrun or in the fast-paced world of New York City. Are they star-crossed lovers or fated to be together?

In Ransom Canyon, true love stories are messy, complicated, and always worth the wait.”

April Blair created the series and serves as showrunner and executive producer. Additional executive producers include series stars Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly, along with Dan Angel, Bradley Gardner, and Joe Fazzio.
