Summary
Seven years after the war, Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy are brilliant, successful, and perfectly content to avoid each other. But when a mysterious magical flare forces them into an uneasy alliance, long-buried secrets begin to rise—along with a bond neither of them expected.
Haunted by grief and PTSD, Hermione hides behind her work as an Unspeakable. Draco, now a powerful potions magnate, is desperate to save his mother from the shadow of Lucius Malfoy. As cursed blood magic begins to stir, their reluctant partnership sets them on a collision course of dark magic, hidden truths, sexual tension, and laugh-out-loud chaos.
With a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance, high stakes, sharp wit, and an unfolding mystery that could destroy the wizarding world, what happens when the ties that bind run deeper, and darker, than anyone ever imagined.

Summary
Draco Malfoy suffers from a rare, progressive curse that no one has been able to break. His magic weakens, his body fails, and the best specialists helplessly throw up their hands. The prognosis is merciless: one year to live, perhaps less.
Hermione Granger, one of the best in her field, a specialist in hopeless cases, is asked for a consultation. Reluctantly, she agrees to take on the assignment, which at first seems like just another difficult case.
But this curse doesn't fit any known classification. Neither does the patient himself—surprisingly likable, intelligent, at times disarmingly normal. The more Hermione asks, the more clearly she sees that the answers she seeks aren't found in medical books—they're in him. And he's not willing to give her all of them.
Over time, what begins to disturb her isn't the curse itself, but how easily everyone has accepted it. How quietly they disappear, those whom no one tries to save. -

Summary
Voldemort has won, Harry is dead, and Ginny is the only surviving member of the Weasley family. Under the new laws, her Pureblood status means she has to marry another of The Ministry's choosing, and she's been gifted to Draco - a somewhat poisoned chalice for the Malfoys with her blood-traitor reputation.
Below stairs at the manor another young woman is learning her new place in the world, Harry cost the family their house-elf and so they have his "favourite mudblood" to take Dobby's place. Hermione has been spared death and now faces a life of servitude, but she still yearns to complete Harry's goals and revenge her friends.
Draco is thoroughly disillusioned with life, he secretly hates the new regime that The Dark Lord has created but feels powerless to act against it, but former rivals make strange bedfellows and the survival instinct for all three is strong.

Summary
Hermione Granger is 27 years old when her life falls apart. Cheated-on, flatless, fed up with her job, she decides to change one thing she can--take a class and try for some career advancement. But change is never easy, especially when an old enemy is the catalyst.
And the class instructor.
"Just as the minute hand clicked over to the hour, the doorknob twisted and a figure slipped into the room. He was tall, a bit windblown. Hermione had a general impression of crisp cuffs and polished leather, and then a more specific one of the most beautiful grey coat—highlighting his shoulders and eyes, skimming to just the right place on his knife creased trousers.
His movements were precise and confident.
He was wearing the softest-looking gloves.
He was not Professor Belinda Rowle.
He was Draco bloody Malfoy."Series
