    Summary

    Hermione Granger writes love songs that sound like soulmates and slow dances and forever.

    The problem is, she has never written one while actually in love.

    Only after.
    Only when something has already broken.
    So when Draco Malfoy—golden-boy actor, old-money heir, and the man she spent six years building a life beside—chooses someone softer, easier, more acceptable to the world that never quite made room for her…

    Hermione does the only thing she knows how to do.
    She survives him in verses.
    She disappears from the public eye.
    No statements. No interviews. No explanations.

    Only music.

    The album that follows is tender. Devastating. Achingly romantic—so much so that strangers play it at weddings, slow-dance to it in dim kitchens, and whisper the lyrics like promises they think will last.

    But Hermione knows the truth.
    Every love song she has ever written was born from grief.
    And this one is no different.
