A deeper magic. A stronger curse. A family lost...and found. Persephone May has been alone her entire life, abandoned as an infant and navigating the foster care system. Desperate for belonging, she grapples with her strangeness—unexplainable phenomena occur around her, leading those who try to embrace her to ultimately reject her. To protect herself, she avoids attachments, friendships, and romance, constantly moving from town to town to escape unwanted attention. After a public display of her powers forces her to leave yet again, she receives an email from her only friend, inviting her to the mysterious Wile Isle. Upon arrival, Persephone discovers that Wile is unlike any place she’s known, potentially offering the answers, family, and home she has long sought. However, it also brings unexpected challenges, including a century-old curse and a deep-seated family feud. With time running out, Persephone must confront her past and embrace the possibility that love could be the magic needed to break the cycle of loneliness and fear.
