Connie once yearned for a life filled with imagination and passion but settled for life on the family's ranch in the Arizona borderlands. She doesn't think about the life she could have had until her husband deserts her and leaves Connie broke and the ranch nearly bankrupt. In desperation, Connie searches for a band of mystical and magical wild "sea" horses her aunt Delilah believed roamed the borderlands, brought to this country by Connie's ancestors. Aunt Delilah believed only those who had the gift, those she called sea horse sirens, could find them. Time is running out, and finding the Irish horses could be Connie's last chance to save the land and her own life.
