Summary
Six years have passed since the Battle of Hogwarts. Six years of broken hearts, lost loves, and new beginnings.
Hermione Granger stepped out of the magical world in 1998 and has refused to return, only keeping in contact with the Potters and Weasleys, and for good reason. Her son is her life, and she'd do anything to protect him, especially from the world and people that had wanted to eradicate her from it.
Things begin to change when alarming attacks on Muggles begin emerging around London, and no one knows the cause or the perpetrator. Secrets long buried threaten to upend Hermione's peaceful existence as a single mother. And problems she'd distanced herself from suddenly require her attention again.
She's not prepared herself for her son's exposure to the magical world, but she may not have a choice as a resurgence of dark magic is brought to her doorstep. And the person most equipped to protect her is someone she'd been avoiding with her departure from the wizarding world.
Draco sodding Malfoy.

Summary
‘Maybe this time’ is a character study told from Draco’s viewpoint (but not written in first person)
The war is over, Potter has won and Draco returns from an eight month prison sentence only to find he is fractured and struggling. In order to cope he turns to potions but that doesn’t change anything really. The ministry has ordered him into two years of community service that he has to spent with Neville and Luna, and his mother is eager to reinstate an old engagement to one of the Greengrass girls.
In a surprise turn of events Draco finds himself estranged from his family and making unlikely friendships. This is a story of suffering, healing and found family. It’s a slow burn, heavily focused on Draco’s journey and wholesome people trying to navigate dark situations.

Summary
A strain of the Black Death has mutated in the wizarding world. A muggle disease that has long been cureable, has now mingled with magic which has devastating effects. Victims rot away until they are nothing but blackened bones; a 100% fatality rate. The magical world is calling it ‘Nox’, because once you catch it, the lights go out.
A decade after Voldemort has been defeated, Britain’s wizarding world has only just begun to repopulate and proactively rebuild after war. As the Nox runs its course, leaving magical hamlets and villages in states of terror and death, the new fear is that their population is facing extinction.
Hermione Granger, the newly elected Director of St. Mungos is called to find a cure, and Draco Malfoy, an ex-auror, who now leads the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes is in charge of tracking down patient zero, and finding out how this happened.
It’s been ten years since the death of Voldemort, and ten years since they fought against each other in the war. Now that there’s a new threat to the wizarding world, can they join together in saving it?

Summary
Hogwarts wasn’t quite what Draco Malfoy expected.
It’s colder, draughtier, and far more Gryffindor-infested than he was prepared for.
In a series of scathing letters home, Draco documents his years at Hogwarts — from the incompetence of the staff to the baffling popularity of Potter and the infuriating brilliance of a bushy haired Muggle-born witch.
If Hogwarts won’t bend to his will, at least his father will hear all about it.
