Nine-year-old Macy Sinclair has been on the receiving end of her father’s temper too many times in her life. As chaos from her father’s incessant anger swirls around her, Macy cannot help but believes she is destined to a wretched life forever. That is, until the day she tearfully prays for a miracle. One night as Macy lies bound to her bedposts awaiting her next beating, she opens her eyes to see a figure in a hooded cloak standing in the shadows next to her bed. When the figure removes the hood, Macy soon learns that it is Marie Laveau, the voodoo queen rumored to have cast black magic spells upon the people of New Orleans many years ago. But Marie is not there to haunt Macy—she is there to save her. Minutes later, the voodoo queen introduces fledgling musician Johnny McElroo to Macy. As Johnny becomes the father Macy never had, he learns to love like he never has before. As Macy learns to trust Johnny, she slowly becomes the woman she was destined to be. Together, Macy and Johnny embark on an unforgettable journey to new beginnings where wishes really do come true.
