Breen Kelly works a job she despises while drowning in student loans. Her childhood memories hold her father's tales of enchanted worlds, but now she faces adult reality in Philadelphia. Everything changes when she uncovers a hidden investment account her mother concealed. Her missing father funded it with nearly four million dollars. Breen uses this windfall to travel to Ireland, where strange visions that plagued her finally make sense. She has seen a silver-haired man who calls to her in dreams, telling her to come home. She has dreamed of dragons for reasons she never understood. In Galway, Breen finds a portal that transports her to Talamh, a land populated by faeries and mermaids. There she meets Keegan, a teenage warrior who emerged from a lake carrying a sword of power. He bears the burden of protecting the Fey people. Breen must discover her own magical heritage and face a destiny that will demand courage she never knew she possessed.
