'I think 'norma' is overrated. I think it's okay to be a little different."
Jessalyn DiLima is a life-saver. She rescues horses and children. She has lost her only daughter, Maddie, years ago and has never recovered from the loss. Shiloh comes to her on the day she rescues Dream of Night, an abused renegade thoroughbred. Shiloh has been abandoned by her mother and her mother's abusive boyfriend, Slade. She receives one silent phone call each year on her birthday. Shiloh is destined for a juvenile residential facility and has shut herself off to avoid more hurt from the foster care system. Jess is feeling her age, and although she feels compelled to help Shiloh, Shiloh rejects her advances. Dream of Night, however, responds to Shiloh and she to him. Both hearts are softened and the seemingly impossible occurs with a deservedly happily ever after ending.
