&lt;div class="p1"&gt;
I wasn't sure exactly what to expect, and right after starting the fic I was sure I had missed a chapter somewhere. It starts off quickly, but is worth the time taken to figure out exactly what's going on!&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="p1"&gt;

&lt;div class="p1"&gt;
Summary: It was only supposed to be one night - a set-up with a hot guy at a fetish club in Muggle London for some mind-blowing, no-strings-attached sex where Hermione would play the submissive role. However, when her amazingly skilled and sensual partner, Draco Malfoy, kept sending her tickets and roses to return to the club to meet again and again, how could a single, sexually-experimental girl say 'no'? Hermione's about to learn the hard way that the sins of the flesh can prove to be too tempting for the body - and the heart - to resist.&lt;/div&gt;

Very clever arrangement, not your typical BDSM story with the realistic twist of the 'switch.' A very adult take on life Post-war, for all characters.&lt;/div&gt;

The push was worth it, I must say! It has a very interesting concept, one of the first that I've read with a little bit of next-gen, a lot of Ron love... And a Draco that uses his snarky attitude defensively in a very obvious manner. Afterwards, I felt like I knew Draco just a LITTLE BIT more!&lt;br /&gt;

I didn't rate the smut on this one. One reason, it's not very in depth or elaborate (actually quite brief). Though the story is quite sexy in parts, a lot of it involves Hermione's love for Ron, and self denial. Without giving any spoilers, that is a big theme in the story and in some parts it overshadows the Draco/Hermione pairing. That can either be seen as a plus, or a big minus!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-3319881163197969887?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I miss these older fics! I suppose 2007 isn't that long ago but in terms of how Dramione has changed since then, or rather, how fanfiction in general has changed, there's a big difference in the quality and thought process that goes into fic writing. Back then, common sources were still being developed, plot lines were still new and exciting.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-6525247367830514492?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

This fic makes me think of the classic Dramione stories. Yet, instead of Draco and Hermione as Head Boy and Girl at Hogwarts eventually falling for one another, we've got a typical snarky Draco with a calmer Lucius, and a truly catatonic Hermione.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-3731682495293778882?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

It's been my first venture onto Hawthorn &amp;amp; Vine, but I'm glad that I joined to read this! I'm quite a ways into it, and it has a very slow buildup (which I appreciate when I need something for the long-haul). It tells a somewhat epic story of the war, told from Grimmauld Place.&lt;br /&gt;

This isn't my favorite pairing, but this is currently one my favorite writers and she's done very well!

And with new content! Thanks to a new series of fanblogs on Tumblr, and the greatness that has become Hawthorne &amp; Vine, I'm here again to give in-depth reviews (yet surprisingly sans spoilers) of my favorite fics. Look for Dramione, Lumione, and a few random but amazing pairings. 

I will never post anything that I dislike and don't highly recommend. 

Do you wonder why this site isn't exclusive to Dramione, hence the name? With the rate that I read, and the fact that I tend to stick to completed fics, I'd run out of stories in a few months! 

I'm always taking suggestions. Want me to review something? Have a favorite you want posted or mentioned? Comment and I'll get on that straightaway!

When I don't like something immediately, or I can't see where it's going, I'll usually go back to searching without much thought and it's final. Every time I see the story again I'll remember that I couldn't read it before and move right along. I was so close to doing that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was maybe 3 paragraphs in and I just couldn't catch on to the writing style, or the phrasing, or the tone of Hermione's POV. I remember a while ago when I couldn't even STAND a story written in first person... I'm sure it's in one of my rules lists on Loves Dramione from 2008. The first instance of "I" and I'd run back to searching again. And with this one I went right back to the search, but read the summary again (bit elusive, isn't it?) with the HHr pairing and the Ron/Hermione descript. But then the word caught, "distraction" and the title "Stupid" and I was determined to figure out what that could mean in this story. Did she cheat? Was she this close to tearing off Harry's clothes at the very sight of him? Did they make some sort of mistake and she was living a lie?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, any of these things could apply and more. So typical, so common in fanfiction are these types of stories that I can usually predict how they play out. I'm just good like that. But no, I was seriously wrong!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a story about long lost love, with it standing right in front of you and your very &lt;em style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;soul&lt;/em&gt; dedicated to protecting that person and your life from your feelings. Barely living and going through the motions so as to not mess up the perfect life around you whilst knowing that it is in fact the most imperfect, sad, grey life that's been carved out for you and the slightest &lt;em style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;touch&lt;/em&gt; can set it off.

I can't get away from HD and DHr, but this is just something so amazing that I doubt I'll ever be able to read another in the pairing without comparing the two.

I was completely blindsided last night by a different story, but this one is still in my head. I'd been on the lookout for a Lumione and this was definitely just what I needed!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Summary: &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 14px; "&gt;When Lucius is found half-dead, Hermione is tempted to finish the job that Fate intended. Instead, she saves his life thus binding him to a life debt. Now it's up to Hermione to collect her repayment. And collect it she will.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Location: FF.net&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Rating: M&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Length: 76K, 21 Chapters&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Time Period: Post War&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Smut: 8/10 (just because I'm greedy for smut!)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Status: Complete&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pairing: Lumione&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;*small spoiler*&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But only enough of a spoiler so you know what's going on. Voldemort's won, Hermione is on the run--and so is Lucius. By the summary and title, you know that there's a debt to collect... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now, this story was so...sweet. Grim, in parts, hateful in many, but eventually nothing matters but survival. The story is a bit common, but it reads as a suspense filled action/romance, Hermione and Lucius versus the Death Eaters with someone to save.

Ron and Harry are Horcrux hunting and Hermione has been left at Hogwarts to help the Order make it safe for the other students. Draco is forced by Snape to stay in Hogwarts for his own protection, but he can't leave the room he is given; Granger's room. Hermione is the only student trusted with this information, so her and Malfoy share the small space, and Draco tries to avoid insanity as he becomes increasingly isolated with only the Mudblood for company.

I found that most exciting! You'll be reading about Harry's downright &lt;i&gt;impressive&lt;/i&gt; rendezvous, all the while developing some serious disgust for Ginny. All the history and plotlines manage to round out nicely, so much that you'll want to try new pairings... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And look out for Severus! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Location: Granger Enchanted (&lt;a href="http://grangerenchanted.com/enchant/viewstory.php?sid=446&amp;amp;chapter=1"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Summary&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;She was drawn to him, like a moth to a flame.

Some may find it scattered, but as I'm always trying to get the most out of my readings, the story turns were awesome. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There are some moments in here where some may think Lucius acts too harshly, or Hermione too fluffily.

I started it last night, and quickly read through it... And it was amazing! I rarely read short stories, preferring not having to worry about reaching the ending for a while. I didn't have that problem while reading this!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's like a beginning of a story, but the actual outcome of it is so sweet and endearing that it still feels complete. I was surprised by Soft's Lucius, and found myself as frustrated as Hermione at times. And I was shocked! And scared for him! But it was so slick... and he was so sneaky and Slytherin...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Just as the title describes, the story is about a damaged, Post War Lucius going through rehab. I wasn't looking forward to that, as I love my Lucius powerful and strong. But don't fear!

I'm a little over halfway through, and it is one of the few stories that I've read that have enough plot and drama that make me want to read the entire thing! I hate endings, truly, so I usually space the last chapters out over a few days, or a week if I really like it.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But this one has endured!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Location: FF.net (&lt;a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5853767/1/Hunted"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Summary: &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="  line-height: 14px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#FF6666;"&gt;Forced to work together when their old schoolmates start dying, Hermione &amp;amp; Draco must overcome their differences to solve the mysterious deaths.

Like I like it! Ahhh office relations...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I hate to give much away, but even though the smut is wonderful it reads like a tv suspense drama. We're trying to figure out what's happening, while Draco and Hermione are going through it as well as developing an intimate relationship. Wonderfully paced, and full. No wasted chapters, and always surprising! And I love love love Narcissa! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-1298422419849554632?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

After Parade of the Sun, it was hard going back into the normal swing of things, testing fics, picking through the bulk for a nicely written one... &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Any fic that I actually work my way through deserves commending for grammar, punctuation, and &lt;i&gt;good&lt;/i&gt; writing. Rave reviews come from a thick plot that makes me think and gets me excited. Although this one is fairly typical, it wasn't bad, and I did enjoy it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Location: FF.net&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Summary: &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;A marriage law has come to pass; an unfaithful boyfriend has been caught and an enemy has been chosen.

Those are usually my favorites that I could read over and over again and never get tired of them. But every once in a while, I just need a certain &lt;i&gt;type&lt;/i&gt; of fic to buffer between huge novel fics. Those with a common story line, and a well known plot. Like Marriage Law. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;What usually carries through most Marriage Law fics is that Hermione (or the woman) has multiple suitors or is being forced into the coupling against her will. The richest, most detestable match (in her opinion) is set to catch her, and they spend a while hating one another, but then the spark ignites and they spend a load of time sexing. And then all is well. (End story). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;This one had a nice little twist. I have to say, what drives this fic is the animosity towards Ron. I really don't like him as a character, and that just helped me right along! But many other things just didn't click for me as important, and I didn't feel like they were executed well. Mainly because I didn't know what was happening in most parts until the very end of the fic. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;Some may call that suspense, but for me, it's just unfinished business that has to be tied up hastily at the end. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" line-height: 14px;font-size:medium;"&gt;That being said, this is a very good FF.net fic. It's good for the masses, (hails 3300 reviews) and is great for an intro into Marriage Law. It's nicely written, and easy. And also introduces an OC Dolohov, which was very interesting!

Everything I was reading prior to opening this story really just dissolved in comparison, and I've stayed up nearly all night for the past week just absorbing all of the mystery and adventure and... &lt;a href="http://community.livejournal.com/dmhgficexchange/343119.html"&gt;Parade of the Sun&lt;/a&gt; is in it's own category of brilliance!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Location: Livejournal&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Summary: &lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"&gt;Floralis Fati is a plant with the power to control time, hidden in the wild, and protected by a magic that strips people of their own while seeking to kill them. Hermione wants it to save the world. Draco wants it to save himself. Sometimes what we want can destroy us -- and sometimes it can build us new again.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Warnings: Sex, violence, cursing, EWE&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Rating: NC-17&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Length: Novel Length&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Time Period: Post War&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Status: Complete&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pairing: Dramione&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If I were to elaborate much, I'd start giving things away... It's that good. There's so much to it, so many emotions, so many &lt;i&gt;events&lt;/i&gt;. It never stops, and everything &lt;i&gt;matters&lt;/i&gt;. No loose ends, no wasted space, just honesty, and comedy, and pain... Every emotion, every motion is illustrated to the fullest. I've never read anything this refined...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Props to &lt;a href="http://everythursday.livejournal.com/profile"&gt;everythursday&lt;/a&gt;, and the most amazing set of betas for the crazy amount of work this must've been!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-784406623800405764?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

It's been a while!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, a while since I've posted, but I've been reading addictively as usual. I just started a new blog, &lt;a href="http://secretslash.blogspot.com"&gt;Secret Slash&lt;/a&gt;, which showcases slash (Harry/Draco, Harry/Cedric, ...), but I've really had a hectic time with life lately. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Just terrible time with life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But in order to keep my mind busy, and not on the impending depression looming overhead, I'm going to be on here. I've just taken up a huge responsibility in some of my other accounts, but I really have been reading, and am going to shuffle more D/Hr stories, and not just the slash and RPF. I really want to get back to rec'ing D/Hr. I read it so much, and it's still my favorite, but I've been so lazy in posting! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-4095023101890311311?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

How I read it, it seemed as if Hermione and Draco had some amazing thing going on, and Blaise ended up walking into some Narnia like world to be lured into their orgy trap. Not only this, but it was in first person--one of my instant no-no's.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;But for once, I stepped over all that, was seriously surprised by what I read, and quickly got over the first person tense. It not only gave me the slash, but the Hermione and Draco interaction I love so much, and the sweetness of the building of friendship. I loved this fic, so much that I doubt I'll be reading it again too much in the future, but not for lack on it's part. It's a one-time awesome for me, anything else would be reference to the effects of Belladonna and Helleborne in potions. Lol!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;So nicely written and backed up with thorough definitions and legitimate arguments between Draco and Hermione... It's not everyday you read a fic which, in many ways, educates you on an imaginary subject so well that you wish it existed in real life!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;I don't mean to water it down with speak of schoolwork! The smut is hot, the arrangement is just so sweet and a bit outside the box (for the traditional D/Hr, threesome reader). The reason it received the rating 8/10 was because it was so short. I mean, although things were fulfilled by the end, the author could have easily switched a few things around and expanded the fic to 20 chapters, still carrying things out the same way, yet being able to stuff in a bit more smut and D/Hr/B interaction. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;Sweet, nicely written, and convenient read!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-4123682817964632210?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

After a long summer of work and H/D reading, I've gotten my muse back and with it, my love for Hermione. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have decided to start with "&lt;a href="http://hp.adultfanfiction.net/story.php?no=600022131&amp;amp;chapter=1"&gt;Her Shoes&lt;/a&gt;" by one of my top F-listers margaritama. I began reading this fic when it first came out much earlier in the year, but for some reason held off midway through. It is complete now, so I read it from start to finish over the past few days and was just as excited about it as the first time! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;Location: AFFN, GE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;The summary for this story is:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;"&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 4px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 4px; font-family:Times;"&gt;Draco Malfoy has demanded Hermione Granger head up an important new Wizard and Muggle venture he's funding.

No matter how it starts out, or how odd or farfetched people call it? Or how many mixed reviews it gets? And to still come out on top, with EVERYONE loving it?! Margarita rolled this one out, with a standoffish and dreadfully aloof Draco and a Hermione addicted to expensive, designer shoes. And it works (out) so nicely! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;And when I say Margarita has style, I mean it. A style all her own, with witty phrasing and easily flowing reading like no other. It's fairly rare that I find a fic that can move me to tears, have me laughing out loud, and at times angry enough to write the author a big chunk of my mind about what she's done with a situation, only to have me wanting more and more and more at the end. And this was her first fic, I believe!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;This story is intense, yet playful, stuffed with obsession and girlyness and heartache and sweetness. I wish I could give more detail without giving it all away, but I doubt I could. But I will say this: you won't find an easily submitting Hermione here. Sure, she might be lead by some heady attraction at times but she fights for equality, and is one of the stronger Hermione's I've ever read... and I've read alot... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style=" ;font-family:'times new roman';font-size:16px;"&gt;Love y'all, and I'm happy I'm back!

Great in that heavy, heady, emotional roller coaster kind of way. It was so well supported, with a huge backstory and so much new material that I don't believe I will ever see the worlds the same again. It could completely change the way I read HP fiction, and things related to the series... The pureblood/muggle dynamic in this really makes you think...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Pros: Thought provoking, well written, and although there is very little "happy" in this fic, it's worth it to push through the tears...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Cons: So, unfailingly sad. The D/Hr relationship is really subdued because of the amount of tragic and terrible stuff going on. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/223492061785172411-7060003109582377484?l=lovesdramione.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
