Summary
The war was over.
Or at least that’s what the papers said.
They’d been saying it, for months, as if people needed reminding.
Maybe they did.
***
In which Harry and Draco both run away from their pasts and conveniently choose to hide in the same tiny American town.
It's super.

Summary
It isn't often Hermione Granger does stupid things, but making up a boyfriend to avoid pity from her ex and saying she'll bring the made up man to a couple's getaway certainly could be classified as one of her stupider moments. Enter Draco Malfoy, who suggests an arrangement: they pose as a couple long enough for her to keep her pride, and for him to better the Malfoy name by dating a war heroine. What could go wrong?

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 fate, but it feels like it. It isn’t easy but they can’t seem to let go of each other.
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
NOW COMPLETE: Slow burn enemies to lovers road trip across Australia with banter, romance and political intrigue.
Draco Malfoy is on a quest to save his son. Hermione Granger is on a quest to steal his quest. What could go wrong?
Terrified that his son Scorpius may one day succumb to a centuries-old blood curse, Draco embarks on a desperate search for a mythical fountain rumoured to hold the power to heal. Tracking ancient magic across Australia would be hard enough on its own, but with Hermione Granger (freshly divorced, endlessly clever, and irritatingly determined) insisting on joining him, the task becomes even more infuriating.
Equal parts adventure, romance, and self-discovery, this is a story about redemption and the healing magic of second chances.
