    But then Narcissa confesses that she's no longer happy in the fashion world, and Hermione realises that actually things can get better - if only she can persuade Narcissa to follow her heart.

    Summary

    Hermione studies for a PhD in English Literature and Drama, but struggles to pay the rent on the flat she shares with her best friend Ginny. Already drowning in work for her thesis, she contemplates accepting a job at the university library. But her supervisor Andromeda Tonks suggests an alternative - that Hermione take a part-time job with her sister, who runs a 'small clothes shop' and who also happens to be designing the costumes for a new theatre production of the play Medea, which is one of Hermione's topics for her thesis.

    Only Hermione didn't expect the 'small clothes shop' to be the well-known designer label The House of Black - so well-known that even she's heard of it. And she definitely didn’t expect to fall in love with the owner....

    Summary

    "I did not want this for him, for my son. I did not want...any of this," the words poured from her lips like bubbling potion boiling over, "I wish...I wish I never allowed him to set foot on this path. That I never stood by and let the Dark Lord brand his precious skin with his Mark…I wish for many things Miss Granger. If I could change the past, I would.”
    A desperate plea leads to a desperate mission. In a split second when all seems lost, Hermione Granger, Gryffindor’s Golden Girl unlinks the golden chain around her neck and throws it around the shoulders of Narcissa Malfoy and turns back time to a week before Draco was set to take the Mark. Working together they'll manipulate the events of the last few years to lead their past selves to victory against the Dark Lord. They have a year and a half to change the course of Draco's life, destroy the Horcruxes, prepare all versions of themselves for the Final Battle and make certain their past selves still end up in Malfoy Manor so they can snap back into time without creating a major paradox.
    A lot can happen in a year and a half.

    Summary

    When Hermione attends a Ministry function at a remodelled Malfoy Manor, she finds herself wandering, drawn by an inexplicable force.

When the Lady of the house discovers her, Narcissa allows Hermione to come and play whenever she feels like it. And accompanied by classical music, both women grow close.
