Our Hearts' Desire (The Monkees Family Vol. 2)
The Monkees finally hit the big time. They score a recording contract and a national tour, and become a sensation. Even as they sell millions of records and play to packed concert halls, however, they struggle for artistic and creative freedom, control of their image, respect from the music industry and critical acclaim. There are also tensions within the band, and Micky and Gabby quietly work to hold everyone together as the family they have become.
In the meantime, everyone's personal life is on the ascendancy, with relationships and commitments becoming solidified and promises being fulfilled. With these changes come individual challenges and confrontations that threaten to rip the couples and even the whole group apart. Once again, it's the Monkees family bond as a whole that supports each member and keeps everyone on track.
Most surprising of all, Micky and Davy find themselves changing from best friends to rivals. They're both in love with Gabby, and Micky has made some spectacularly bad choices that leaves the field open to Davy to swoop in and plead his case to Gabby. Who will she choose?
