Summary:

James Potter. What could be said of him? He was the son of an accomplished cosmetic potioneer, well-known in school for his antics along with three other boys, fought alongside the Order of the Phoenix and had his legacy carried on by his one and only son Harry Potter. However, not many knew what happened behind the scenes or just how James finally managed to woo Lily Evans. One thing is true, he didn’t do it alone.
James Potter was just like any other teenage boy and had struggles of his own, such as how to get the girl of his dreams to give him a chance? With the help of a new found friend he compiles a plan that he is sure is foolproof and is bound to help Lily Evans, fellow 5th year, fall deeply in love with him. In order to do so, he must risk his entire reputation on the line and do the one thing no one would ever expect out of him.

Chapter 1: Author's Note

Chapter Text

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to give a brief note/introduction to the story and myself :)

This is my first story that I am publishing but it's something that I had thought and began years ago. After coming back to it, I decided to give it another go at writing because it's an idea I really do want to put into words.

As a disclaimer, I will say that I am American and the story does take place as an AU for Harry Potter so I will do my best to not be super cringe. This is a story that takes place during the time that the Marauders spent their years at Hogwarts and while I do try my best to stay as accurate as possible, there will be a little bit of straying away at some parts or simply where I want to fill in the gaps. Needless to say, things may not always be canonically correct but I promise it will only be for the progression of the story! Apart from that, things won't stray too far :)

Additionally, this should go to say that all rights to the Harry Potter franchise go to JK Rowling. This is merely a fanfiction and a story of something that occurs in an alternate universe.

I am always willing to hear what others think of the story whether it's ideas, constructive criticism, or any other opinions you all may have. Don't be shy to let me know, it only helps me deliver a better story. With that being said, I hope you enjoy it!
