Summary
Twenty years after the Battle of Hogwarts, the Malfoy family's association with Voldemort has made them social outcasts. Hermione has only seen Draco a handful of times since their school days, but he looks exhausted when she notices him in the lobby of a hotel during a charity gala. Days later, she still can't seem to forget about the way he looked that night. After hearing a rumor that he or his father might be seriously ill, she starts investigating in her free time. It leads to the discovery of a problem impacting former Death Eaters, and a coverup that seems to be coming from high up in the Ministry of Magic. Slow-burn romance with shameless flirting, a side of plot, and a cherry of smut on top. HEA guaranteed.

Summary
"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."
(From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence)This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Summary
In which Draco has a rip roaring crush on Hermione for the first four years of school. Then Fifth year arrives and it seems she might return his affections.
So what does he do? Naturally, he lures her (in a romantic way of course) into an alcove, magically glues her in place and kisses her until she's dizzy.
This is their love story. It's full of magic, humour and growing together. Of adventures, mischief and silliness around Hogwarts, cosy and tucked away from the rest of the world. This story is all their little moments; falling in love, falling apart, broken through the war and back again for Eighth year, and everything else In Between.
Featuring: a smart, ultra competent Hermione Granger who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go after it,Soft, cinnamon roll Draco Malfoy who's completely head over heels for Hermione and is prepared to break all sorts of rules to spend time with his witch
Ultimate wingman Blaise Zabini. He's also a mother hen
Theo Nott making bets and badges. He's here for the chaos
Oblivious Potter (but he has suspicions)
Tiny bit of Ron Weasley bashing but also Ron Weasley redemption (and I redeem him so good!)
