    Summary

    The war is over, and the world is slowly healing. Head Girl Hermione Granger is headed to Hogwarts for her eighth year. It seems as though everyone around her is moving forward and finding their path in life. But Hermione can't help but feel stuck as if she is floundering. Until a cufflink thrusts her into a memory she is desperate to forget. Until the inscription carved within the tarnished silver reveals a man she'd thought to be dead.

    Summary

    The wrapping was a shimmering blue paper that reflected in the light. Hermione tore through the paper to reveal a sturdy black box. She carefully pried open the lid, and a gasp escaped her lips. With a shaking hand, she pulled out a long feather quill that had been dyed a very deep blue.

    The quill scratched over the parchment as an invisible hand began to write. It wrote a single line, then stopped in place.
    ‘Took you long enough. Is this the first time you’ve tried to use it?’
    She recognized that tight, angular script. ‘Malfoy?

    Hermione paused, and her eyes rested on Malfoy’s note from last night:
    ‘Why do you clutch at your arm every time you see me?’
    Words jumbled around in her mind until slowly, deliberately, she wrote back:
    ‘My scars haven’t faded yet.’

    Summary

    Fifteen years after the end of the second war against Voldemort, Hermione Granger is invited to Hogwarts for a one-year appointment as the professor for History of Magic, forcing her to take a break from a successful career at the Ministry of Magic.

    Draco Malfoy, meanwhile, is Hogwarts' Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. He's a former Auror, despite the fact that he still bears the Dark Mark.

    Though there's mutual distrust between them, sparks quickly fly between Hermione and Draco...sometimes literally. And although the war is long over, it doesn't take an interest in History of Magic to see that history is intent on repeating.

    Between them, Hermione and Draco have the power to shatter the world they know. Or, maybe, the could make it into something new.

    Imagine if they fell in love at the same time.
