TV show description:
This dramatic series revolves around a tough and experienced female police officer from Seattle, Allison McLean (Kelli Williams). Like most working women, her hands are already full, balancing a demanding and dangerous job and a family — husband Matt (Jonathan Scarfe), and teenagers Jeff (Mitchell Kummen) and Rachel (Natasha Calis).
She and her partner, Devin (Dion Johnstone), must arrest her brother, Tim (Luke Perry), for aggravated assault. As a result, her world drastically changes. Tim is convicted and sent to prison and this leaves his two teenagers — Cameron (Rhys Matthew Bond) and Mariah (Matreya Scarrwener) — teetering on the brink of foster care.
Having done the right thing as an officer of the law, Allison now feels compelled to do the right thing as a sister and aunt. She brings Tim’s two very unhappy teens into her home. Squeezing four teenagers under one roof proves to be an additional test of Allison’s strength and patience. It’s not easy for her husband, her children, or Tim’s kids either.
Episode #10 — Protect and Serve
Allison and Devin uncover the shocking truth at the heart of a turf war in Crestview. Allison and Matt take the entire family to visit Tim in prison. Jackie, feeling jealous of the way Cameron looks up to Allison, makes a tragic choice.
First aired: October 14, 2015.

I really enjoyed the series, but was disappointed to hear it cancelled. Hope you bring it back soon.
This was an awesome show. There wss no reason to cancel it..I cannot understand why it was cancelled. Bring it back on Netflix or some other station. This was a great show.
This was such a great show, I couldn’t believe it only had one season. There were so many story lines that could have been developed. The actors were very good.
We just completed watching the season 1 of this ties That Bind and are very super bummed that you didn’t continue on with season two please put it back on. Is it at least in book form?
Just discovered this show on Pureflix and love it! Wish there were more seasons!
Please restart this series. It is really good!
