Learning her father's uncle has asked for her to come to America and be his sole heir, seventeen-year-old Ella McCarthy should be flattered and excited. The circumstances, however, are quite daunting. She must leave her loving Irish family to marry her uncle's neighbor's younger son, Sean Brannock, and oversee his horses at a place called Beacon Hill.
