Summary
After Voldemort’s fall, Hermione Granger is the only one left standing. The Dark Lord might have been slain by her hand, but everyone she had loved has been burned to ashes. She alone is left to live a life amongst this world’s ghosts.
It’s then that she decides to hunt down the Time Turner that Dumbledore gave during her Third Year. Perhaps if she goes back far enough, she can fix it all. Although, instead of going back to the moment in which everything went wrong, Hermione travels far enough that she knows she’s no longer in her world.
Here, her friends look at her as if they’ve seen a ghost.
Here, Hermione Granger is long dead.

Summary
Hermione Granger misses her train by precisely three minutes– sabotaged by a treacherous watch and a twist of fate that feels perilously intentional. Which is how she finds herself roaming London through the long, sleepless hours with Draco Malfoy at her side. He is inconveniently handsome, insufferably articulate, and possessed of the sort of composure that makes her want to shove him into oncoming traffic purely on principle.
What begins as an unfortunate detour devolves into a night of unguarded repartee, disarming candor, and the unnerving suspicion that he might understand her far better than anyone ought to at this hour.

Summary
Hermione Granger has bigger things to worry about than Draco Malfoy.
She's overworked and underpaid; she’s juggling newly un-Obliviated parents, rapidly dwindling romantic prospects, and unfathomable mountains of medical debt.
But when Malfoy begins to disappear on Sunday mornings, returning in muggle clothes, smelling faintly of candle smoke, Hermione just can't seem to convince herself that it's none of her business.

Summary
It’s 1999. The war is over.
The world has moved on. Hermione Granger has not.
She arrives in Brisbane a shadow of herself—adrift in a city that is not home, with parents who do not understand her, waiting for letters that never come. She has been unraveling, slowly and methodically, and not a soul has noticed.
Until she sees him.
Draco Malfoy. A war criminal. A fugitive. Working in a Muggle pub under an assumed name, carving out a quiet, anonymous life at the edge of the world.
The chances of them ever crossing paths again were infinitesimal. He should have run the moment she recognized him. But he doesn’t.
And he just keeps showing up.
It isn’t simple. It isn’t safe. But against all logic, it becomes something that will leave traces on them both forever.
A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story about exile, identity, reinvention, and the messy, painful, nonlinear nature of healing.

Summary
"The way that you can tell a person is good is by how well they make things right again after they’ve been bad."
-John Steinbeck, East of Eden
Hermione Granger had found a semi-satisfactory sense of solace after the war in the best way she knew how: immersing herself in the muggle world and avoiding the people and places that triggered emotions she'd long since suppressed. Until one night when a familiar head of platinum hair is wheeled through the doors of the ICU on her night shift, bleeding, unconscious, and forever shattering the walls she'd built around herself.
Years later, she's still putting the pieces back together.
