Summary
In the summers between school, a young Hermione Granger finds companionship in a mysterious young wizard near her family’s country home in Wiltshire. They share their troubles under the comfort of their respective anonymity until one fateful encounter destroys their fragile refuge from the real world.
Years later, after a war that devastated Wizarding Europe, Hermione’s one wish is to pursue higher education for her Potions Mastery. Only, one clause leftover from deeply entrenched Muggle-born prejudice sends Hermione into the grueling social season with one goal in mind; to marry the least terrible eligible wizard.
To her misfortune, a scandalous case of mistaken identity binds her future to a man who is certain to be the worst of all. Draco Malfoy; the new Duke of Wiltshire, a war hero, and the boy who broke her heart.

Summary
For his entire childhood, Draco dreamt of the day he would attend Hogwarts. He would be sorted into Slytherin, as his parents and grandparents had been. He would rule the school as royalty among his peers. It was his birthright as a Malfoy, after all.
His life is turned upside-down when, on a mere whim, his father elects to send Draco to Durmstrang for his magical education, instead. Away from his mother, his childhood friends, and even Lucius himself, Draco makes several realisations: He cannot allow his father to dictate his future. So, as soon as he turns of age, Draco plans to cut all ties with the man. And, in order to do so, he can only rely on himself.
When the opportunity arises to study abroad for a year at Hogwarts, Draco seizes it immediately to spite his father and reclaim a bit of control over his life. His plan remains the same, that is until he meets someone who threatens to change all of his priorities.

Summary
A trip to Budapest. A trip to Paris. A startling realisation. It’s horrifying—understanding you’re in love with your best friend.
---
Draco sticks his hands in his pockets and sighs. “This sort of sky always reminds me of you.”
“How so?”
“It’s overwhelming, don’t you think?”
Puffy clouds mix with thin, straight ones, stretched from one end of the horizon to the other. Pink and orange peek through a fading blue-grey backdrop, the sun nearing its last legs.
It is overwhelming.
It’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to her.

Summary
The introduction of a Marriage Law gives Draco the perfect opportunity to sweep Hermione off her feet.
“It’s yours,” he said quietly. He lifted a hand to her chin and turned her head. Hermione's eyes flicked over his face, just as he did the same and she tilted her face down. Their lips met in the most gentle kiss they’d ever shared, lips gently brushing before Draco pulled back and, their foreheads pressed together, he murmured, “and you’re mine.”
