Piper Hathaway discovers that her husband Joel is thinking about leaving her and their two children. She loves her husband and doesn’t want to lose him. What to do? Desperate to reconnect with Joel, Piper arranges a Christmas vacation at the Last Chance Motel where miracles happen. Piper prays for one, but everything falls apart. The children get into trouble with the law, and Joel is distant. Piper is ready to throw in the towel, but something holds her back.
Perhaps it is the ethereal singing Piper hears in the lagoon each day at dawn. Eva Hanover, the motel’s owner, says the magical singing comes from a siren of the sea. Legend has it whoever catches a mermaid singing will have something wonderful happen in their life. Piper doesn’t believe mermaids exist. Still, she is drawn to the beach each morning in hopes the old sea tales are true because Piper needs a miracle in a hurry. She needs a second chance at love!
