Essence Bloom was once a princess of light and life, Princess to a kingdom where gardens bloomed year-round and every leaf whispered her name. But when dark magic consumed her kingdom, curtesy of the evil queen, she was swept away from all she had ever known.

Now transported to Storybrooke with no memory of her past and a fragile peace growing within her, she is pulled into the mission to Neverland alongside Emma Swan and the others.

But Neverland has been waiting for her.

And so has he.

In a realm where dreams twist into nightmares and nothing stays innocent for long, Essence must walk the line between petal and poison, kindness and power - and decide if she's strong enough to bloom again in a world that wants to claim her.
