    Summary

    Hermione Granger is lost.

    More than a year after the war, she struggles to find the right path for her life outside of Hogwarts. Still haunted by fear and loss, and faced with a new world that seems less promising than she’s always imagined, Hermione feels herself caught at a dead end — and the nightmares don’t help, either.

    When she runs into a familiar face on the night of her birthday, Hermione feels a spark of hope for the first time in a long time. Then, an opportunity for a fresh start presents itself, along with an old nemesis who seems to reignite her need to fight: both for herself, and for the life she’s always wanted.

    Hermione jumps headfirst into a journey that forces her to face all of the things she wants to forget, while learning to cherish the messy, beautiful things she is called to remember — scars and all.

     

    A post-war, slow-burn, enemies to lovers Dramione story about healing, redemption, and second chances. Featuring a full cast of your favourite snarky Slytherins.

    Summary

    There’s an old superstition that each person falls in love three times in their life. The first is young love, the second is hard love, and the third, is the love that lasts.

    Kitty had been in love three times in her life. Dae had been her young love, Yuri had been her hard love, and then there was Min Ho. The way she felt about him had come blindly. It crept up on her one day at a time, without her even noticing it at first. She hadn't gone looking for it. It came for her, like a creature in the night. She'd put up walls and defences and built barriers to protect her heart. Then, one day, she realized she loved him to her very soul, despite all of the reasons she shouldn't, and despite all of the effort she had made to not. But she wasn't allowed to love him. He was Dae's best friend. He'd somehow become her best friend. He was the one person she was not allowed to love. So she kept it bottled up close to her heart, and never told a soul.

    Then, without warning, he was gone. He had gone from being the most important person in her life, to barely answering her text messages, and before she knew it, she hadn't so much as spoken to him in five years, and the worst part of it all, was that she had no clue why.

    Summary

    Hermione, now in her mid-20s, is back at Hogwarts to pursue higher education. Trying to forget the trauma carved into her by the war, she spends one lust-filled night with a certain pureblood. But that night will have consequences.
    While her personal life unravels, a string of mysterious murders forces her to work together with Draco Malfoy, who himself seems to carry many secrets.

    "He scared her. Not because he wielded killing curses like they were nothing, but because he seemed to understand her in a way that even she didn’t. The more she let him in, the more power he had to destroy her."

    Come for the smut, stay for the plot.
