As the weather warms up and buds begin to bloom, the magic of love will also blossom come springtime.

Over the episodes, we get an intimate look into the lives of Phumeza, Shota and their children.

We explore the couple's relationship with one another, as well as their relationships with their respective families.

While love is at the centre of this special, it's also a story of cultural identity, overcoming challenges, family bonds, and friendship.

The title of the show also refers to writing letters as one of the oldest forms of communication.

Dynasty 5

Final season!

After Eva, Fallon's scorned and lovesick assistant, shot her, Fallon lay bleeding out on the campaign gala floor with her marriage to Liam also circling the drain.

Will she survive the internal damage? Will her marriage survive the external damage? It's anyone's guess...

Also racing for his life - electorally speaking - Blake steadily built a lead in the Georgia Senate race, thanks to Cristal employing a little Carrington manipulation of her own.

This season, the marriage starts off in rough waters, but soon hits smooth sailing as Cristal finds herself at the helm of a new position of power.

With Blake's airline soaring, it may be time for Blake and Cristal to consummate their marriage by joining together as one... business.

The problem is, in this world, amassing more power just makes you more of a target for the people waiting to take you down.

Now adorned in her finest prison orange, Alexis finds herself behind bars for a crime she didn't commit.

While one child – Adam – clearly was more involved than he's letting on, another child – Amanda – does her best to exonerate her mother.

A game of cat and mouse ensues as Amanda looks to settle some scores with Adam, leading to a season-long rivalry.

As Adam builds up his new company this year, Amanda will do whatever she can to make him suffer.

Meanwhile, while Jeff is no longer going into outer space, he's still going into dangerous places.

He soon finds himself in the midst of a dangerous war that he's not sure he can win.

At the same time, Dominique looks to expand her reach in the fashion industry, giving Kirby another chance to return to a career that almost destroyed her.

Culhane sets out to find an everlasting love and Sam opens his heart only to uncover a devastating family secret.

This season is all about legacy and what it means to leave something worthwhile behind.

As we head towards the 100th episode, there will be no shortage of caviar and champagne, hair-pulling and pageantry, and maybe even a few new faces with old secrets ready to solidify their own dynasty.

In the Season 5 premiere, "Let's Start Over Again": Fallout from Blake's gala finally begins to settle and Blake and Cristal work on the next phase of his campaign.

In his hour of need, Liam turns to Sam and Kirby.

As Alexis remains in jail and proclaims her innocence, Amanda sets out to see who might be responsible for the murder.

Adam continues to be suspicious of Amanda, and the feeling is reciprocated.

Meanwhile, Jeff starts to heal.

Dominique still doesn't believe everything Jeff said when he was sick but Culhane believes there may be some truth to Jeff's suspicions.
