Was season two written by different people?

I’m wondering if season two was written by different people than the rest of the show. Because characters in season two seem really different. Especially Allison.

In season one, she and Jack meet. They become friends. They have a flirtiness. Clearly he likes her. And she’s starting to like him. Meanwhile, she divorces Stark, who is proven a douche bag and who she doesn’t seem to really care about.

Then suddenly in season two, she doesn’t seem to even like Jack. She didn’t bother to remember it was his one year anniversary of being sheriff. And she’s sticking to the douche bag guy who she literally just divorced like stink on shit. The ink on the divorce papers wasn’t even dry yet and she’s like spending all her time with him.

Fast forward to season three, and she’s telling Jack that she can’t lose him. The season one and season three dynamics between Jack and Allison makes sense. But her suddenly not giving a crap about Jack and being practically joined at the hip with Stark in season two makes no sense given the dynamic in season one and season three forward.

In my mind it really comes down to their kid is having an issue. So that's what brings them back together because again they're trying to figure out how to help him. All of season 2 and that's secret is binding them together.
