    Summary

    Reasons why being in love with Draco Malfoy is wholly unacceptable:

    1. He is insufferable
    2. He is married
    3. He is her academic rival
    4. Now, unhappily, he is also her colleague, and they are meant to be collaborating
    5. Professional boundaries ought to be observed with colleagues
    5b. Especially when her application for tenure is fully dependent on forging a successful academic collaboration with said colleague
    6. It is not compatible with her five-year plan (see items 1-5 for specifics)

    Hermione has a deeply compelling list of reasons not to be in love with Draco Malfoy. To her dismay, when her department chair at St. Mungo's Medical School forces her into close proximity with Malfoy for the sake of undertaking an alchemy collaboration, she begins to develop romantic feelings she never meant to have.

    Desperate to remedy this lamentable affliction, she invents a potion that can reverse the state of being in love. The only trouble is, she can’t seem to bring herself to take it.

    Or: In which Hermione tries to force quit being in love.

    Summary

    After the war dragged on for years, after Harry Potter died and the world fractured, the Ministry promised peace. Instead, it rewrote the laws, buried the bodies, and sealed the records.
    Draco Malfoy—silent, wandless, and still the most dangerous man in the room—is days away from being erased.
    Hermione Granger tried to stay out of it. She really did. She tried to forget the war. She tried to play the part—healer, wife, survivor.
    But when she learns the truth, she’s left with one impossible choice: Let them erase him or marry him herself.
    He saved her life once upon a time.
    Now she’s saving his.

    OR

    How the Ministry tried to kill him, bury him, and take everything he had, but he got a wife instead.

    Summary

    Why was Malfoy in Marrakesh? In the very week the Ministry had chosen for her business trip? It had to be coincidence. Or maybe kismet. Which in the Islamic belief meant something like divine dispensation or predestined fate. But in relation to Malfoy and her, that didn't make much sense. And it was bollocks anyway.

    Summary

    "I don't want your pity, Granger," he seethes. "I'm still in your debt. I haven't made amends yet."

    "Oh, so you're planning to?" she asks more cheekily than she is feeling.

    Malfoy's eyes flash as if she had challenged him to a duel.

    "Is there something you need? Just say the word and I'll give it to you. Or do you prefer actions? I'm willing to do fucking anything..."

    Hermione's heart is beating indecently fast. She masks her fascination with a sceptically raised eyebrow.

    "Anything," she echoes.

    "Anything," he confirms.

    "All right, then. For starters, I'd like you to stop crowding me against this bookshelf."

    Summary

    “Ok, I’ll bite. What makes you so popular, then?”

    He gave her a wolfish grin and relaxed deeper into the chair, turning his palms over on the armrests to face upwards. He didn’t run a hand over his body as if to say “have you seen me?”, but the look on his face pretty much shouted it at her.

    Hermione mentally rolled her eyes to the very back of her skull. Insufferable prat. She blinked at him in a show of being very much unaffected by the absolute gorgeousness of him.

    “Unfortunately, Malfoy, the Falmouth Falcon’s bank accounts aren’t fed by people fawning over your scrawny body -“

    Draco spluttered, “Scrawny!” and frowned down at his own chest. He stopped short at flexing his biceps for her.

    ************

    Draco Malfoy is the star Seeker for the Falmouth Falcons. Well, he is for the time being, but with the Falcon’s undergoing some serious financial woes, he might be out of a job very time soon.

    Enter one Hermione Granger, reluctant PR advisor hired to clean up the team’s act and drum up some good press.

    The problem is, when these two go head to head, who will come out on top?
