Set in Season 2. When Henry runs away from the Charming home, Emma and Regina are forced to look at their tumultuous relationship in order to give him the family that he needs. They grow from enemies, to friends and possibly something more than either could have imagined. But will their shared and separate pasts prove to be an obstacle too great to overcome.

Regina is given a blessing that will allow her a second chance at a new life. However, banishing someone's history comes with unexpected consequences and now it's up to Emma and Henry to find a way to bring her back, preferably before Cora overcomes her sleeping curse or anything else goes wrong in town. When has anything ever been that simple? Swan Queen eventually.

Emma Swan meets the evil queen, raising her son in a fairy tale land inexplicably located in Maine. Soon she's a prisoner in the castle, embroiled in royal politics and a curse with no end in sight, and navigating a volatile relationship with a queen who's determined to see her dead. (It'd be helpful if she wasn't so attracted to her, probably.)
