Captain Swan - Feels Like Home

Who knew how challenging it could be to run a funeral home with his brother while raising an eleven-year-old daughter who's growing up way too fast? In an attempt to lift some of the burden and responsibilities ohh his shoulders, Liam hires a mortuary makeup artist so his brother doesn't miss out on the finer aspects of being a single parent.

Emma Swan is a new single mom since her ten-year-old son recently came into her life. Before that, she's been living in her camper, trying to find her roots while pursuing her dream to go to Hollywood and put makeup on celebrities. But when she arrives in her son's hometown, on the very opposite side of the county, and sees a job posting for a makeup artist, she decides to give Storybrooke a chance. Besides, who needs glamour and glitz and celebrities when you can have doom and gloom and lifeless corpses?

Killian's stubborn, just like his brother, and is initially opposed to the idea of hiring someone to do a job he can easily do himself. But Emma Swan might just have the right touch to put some life into the funeral home and add a little light to the darkness that's been looming over the house since Killian's wife died.

It's Emma's job to beautify people; she's just not used to her clients missing a heartbeat. But it turns out, a funeral home and the people who live there make her feel more at home than she's ever felt before. And it doesn't help that the undertaker is the most handsome man she's ever met. If only he didn't criticize everything she does, including the things she teaches his daughter. If only he wasn't her boss. Then she might actually like him.
