Cece Harper had a secret that no one believed. It didn't help that she couldn't explain how her brothers and sisters lost their lives, and she certainly couldn't explain why she was the only survivor. In all her efforts to move on from the trauma, the mystery continued to loom over her like a shadow. Ten years later, Cece built a new life. She made a name for herself as a rising music talent, performing at bars and party venues in the grungy city she called home. Between therapy, a successful autobiography, and her transforming bond with her best friend, she thought she could be satisfied. But on the night of her twenty-eighth birthday, she meets a magician who changes everything. Cece strikes a bargain to return to the Wilde Isle ten years earlier, to the time and place where tragedy struck, with all of her previous memories intact. Now, she has the opportunity to save her family, if the temptation of a siren's song isn't too great. **OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST 2023**
