    Summary

    After the war, Hermione Granger disappeared from headlines and into the quiet life everyone expected her to want. But behind closed doors, things were unraveling. The boy she once trusted, Ron Weasley, never truly came back from the war. And the man he became was cruel, volatile… and dangerous.

    When the bruises get too dark and her wand lies broken, Hermione runs, without a plan, without protection, and with only one name echoing in her memory.

    Draco Malfoy.

    Years ago, in the rubble of a ruined castle, he made her a promise: “If you ever need me… you’ll have access to wherever I am. No questions asked.”

    She never thought she’d need to use it.

    Now, drenched in rain and wrapped in silence, Hermione walks into the empire Draco built and back into the life of the man she thought she’d never see again. But he sees too much. And he’s not about to let her walk back out.

    Not when she’s finally here.
    Not when someone’s hurt her.
    And not when the woman he never stopped watching over just whispered, “I didn’t know where else to go.”

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy is a cunning and talented prosecutor for the Wizengamot, and Hermione Granger is a star defense attorney, fighting for creature rights.

    Their story begins as they face off in a court case, The Vampire Coalition v. The Ministry of Magic where once again, they’re on opposite sides of the same battle.

    But this time, they aren’t enemies. They’re rivals.

    Witty banter? ✔️ Loaded glances across the courtroom? ✔️ Mounting sexual tension? Yep, that too.

    Ginny Weasley is confident and fiery, having a laugh over coffee with Hermione before heading home to her handsome partner.

    Flashback 3 years, as Ginny's story unfolds in its own arc as she attempts to find herself amidst the crushing grief of losing her brother Fred.

    CRUSHED brings us into the courtroom to watch as Draco and Hermione go head to head against each other, and to the Quidditch stadium, as Ginny earns her spot on the Holyhead Harpies and plays her rookie year.

    And, we can’t forget Harry. He’s on his own path towards self discovery, and along the way he’ll find that old enemies aren’t always what they seem, and that a certain bratty Slytherin witch might just be what he’s looking for.
