Giving new life to her daughter Cara, Isabel teaches her to be fearless and always pursue her dreams, some of which are undoubtedly in the young girl's blood.

When Cara's daughter Maggie is born, she is presented with opportunities that Cara and Grandma Isabel could only have dreamed of. Ultimately, Maggie uncovers hidden family secrets that completely alter the women's legacy, leading to an outcome that no one could have foreseen.
