    Summary

    Rumplestiltskin wakes from the curse 10 years earlier than expected. He has memories of Mr. Gold falling in love with Isabelle French. But were those memories a product of the curse, or could they have been real? How could they have been real with Storybrooke still locked in time? Nothing was supposed to change in Storybrooke, certainly not a scorned relationship between the town’s Beauty and the town’s Beast. Yet something did change, something he never foresaw, and Isabelle French is at the heart of it. Rumplestiltskin will need to solve the mystery to discover who or what has caused fate to change.

    Storybrooke had better be prepared because he will discover the truth about Belle, and whether she is dead or alive, someone is going to pay for this.
