Emma Baker, heir to her family's generations-old bakery in rural Wisconsin, has started dreaming. The excitement of having dreams after twenty years without rapidly gives way to confusion. Emma has a lifetime of experience interrogating her friends about what dreams are like, and she can see something is wrong -- because dreams aren't supposed to come true, and that goes extra for dreams about faeries. What was once a quiet life far off the beaten path slowly unspools as Emma learns her family has been keeping secrets she couldn't have imagined. Worse still, something has gone wrong with the plan to protect their way of life, and no one -- not even her faerie godmother -- knows how to fix it.
