Summary
Exploding Ministry memos and one or two requisite dragons and cursed magical objects. Old school romances with a dash of new workplace flirtation. James Potter and Lily Evans may have missed each other the first time around…but not this time, if Ministry regulations have anything to say about it.

Summary
They say you can’t go home again. Lily Evans never left.
Three years after James Potter walked out of Godric’s Hollow – and out of her life – Lily has carved out a quiet rhythm for herself in the very house where her heart once broke. And she’s not about to let him ruin that.
But when James returns for his mother’s sixty-fifth birthday, a few years older, shoulders broader, and still infuriatingly charming, the walls Lily’s built around her carefully controlled world begin to crack once more. He’s here, and he’s looking at her like he still remembers every stolen kiss, every whispered promise made in the heat of that endless summer.
Lily, however, isn’t that girl anymore. She’s not naïve. She’s not breakable. And she certainly isn’t his.
But some songs don’t stop playing just because you turn the volume down. Especially when you’re right there where he left you.

Summary
They say you can never go home, places don't stay the same while you're gone, and people don't wait.
They say home is where the heart is, an invisible string that slackens or pulls tight when it wants attention.
Or, maybe home is just a four-letter word.Bookmarked by cariadlilbit

Think I Know Where You Belong (Think I Know It's With Me) by ritaskeetered

Summary
At thirty-three years old, Lily Evans fears she may not quite have lived up to her potential. Single and living alone – if one does not consider her cat a flatmate, that is – her days are blurs of monotony, most of her students getting more action than she has seen in the past decade. (Hyperbole gratuitously applied.)
Insert James Potter – former classmate and unrequited crush – who appears to be on a mission – aside from promoting his fourth novel – to point out all of her flaws, while strutting the hallways of their former secondary, the place she has never left and he will forever haunt now that the board has decided to name the school library in his honour. (F*ck her life.)
