Summary
“You know what I think, Granger?”
“What, Malfoy,” she snarls, feeling a tenuous thread of self-control about to snap.
“I think”—his eyes travel lazily down her body and back up—“you don’t actually hate me at all.”Or: It’s Election Night 2005 for the Minister of Magic, and Hermione Granger will not let anything distract her from the biggest story of her career—even being forced to partner with her nemesis, Draco Malfoy.

Summary
She knows very well what she’s doing, withdrawing from the swirling ecosystem of the party so she can study the play of emotion on his face — open, friendly — and the hand-waving animation of his speech. (A lampshade totters dangerously, and settles slightly askew.) This is always how she’s done her best thinking. Distance, and perspective.

She wanted to shake him by the shoulders, to ask him point-blank why this seemed to be the only bloody universe in which he couldn’t see how she felt about him—and the only one in which he felt nothing beyond friendship for her.

Summary
Hermione Granger is 27 years old when her life falls apart. Cheated-on, flatless, fed up with her job, she decides to change one thing she can--take a class and try for some career advancement. But change is never easy, especially when an old enemy is the catalyst.
And the class instructor.
"Just as the minute hand clicked over to the hour, the doorknob twisted and a figure slipped into the room. He was tall, a bit windblown. Hermione had a general impression of crisp cuffs and polished leather, and then a more specific one of the most beautiful grey coat—highlighting his shoulders and eyes, skimming to just the right place on his knife creased trousers.
His movements were precise and confident.
He was wearing the softest-looking gloves.
He was not Professor Belinda Rowle.
He was Draco bloody Malfoy."Series
