This is really entertaining, I love it :)
Hmmm... It's hard to pronounce Alain in English but I think it should be more like 'Ah-lain' , stressing on the 'ah' and without pronouncing the 'n'. The french 'ain' sound doesn't exist in english!
Author's Response: I know, the name *is* kind of difficult in English, but for whatever reason, I thought it was the perfect alias for Draco. I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far. Chapter Four should be out this weekend, I think.

Yay! Yay! NOW WHERE'S THE NEXT ONE???
Author's Response: Good Lord! Give me time to write it. :) I don't get much time to write anymore, since I have a baby that takes up most of my day, but I promise to get another chapter out as soon as I can.

I love the last scene. I can picture it so clearly. Although, I must ask, how do you pronounce Alain?
Thanxxx
Author's Response: Yay for Draco kisses! Though my french is beyond atrocious, I pronounce it uh-LANE in my head. Is that correct? I have no idea. :)

Awesome. I'm loving how you took a storyline that's been done and turned it into something different and complicated. Also, it's compelling.
Author's Response: What a lovely thing to say. Thank you! I knew that Draco-as-spy had been done tons of times before I got to it, so with Rainpuddle's awesome Ginny-as-mail-order-bride prompt, I was able to come up with a fun new variation.

I definitely love the way this story has started. Intrigue, sarcasm, and a great plot all equal a wonderful fic in the making.
Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying it so far! I am, as anyone who has read my fics know, a gigantic fan of the snark. Sarcastic boys like Draco are my crack, and I'm cool with that addiction.

I think I will not read the contest-version... not if the story here has so much more details and additions..it only would ruin the anticipation ^^
So far I really like the story and how you designed both ginny's and draco's characters and I'm eagerly awaiting how their meeting will turn out :)
Greetings,

Author's Response: Thank you! I have to say that you have more willpower than I do. I'm the girl that reads the first chapter of a book, then the last chapter, then starts back at the beginning. :)

As much as I loved the contest entry, this is so much better. I adore all the added details. Because you know, more detail is always wonderful, especially in a fic this good. I love getting a bit more into Draco's head before Gin shows up. I think it helps set up his character more and helps explain how easily he fell into a trap of his own making *grins* Simply brill, darling! *claps wildly*
Author's Response: *big hugs* God, I'm such a praise wh*re. I squee at awesome reviews, and yours are always thoughtful and fantastic. I'm so happy I get to post this version. :)

This is great! I love the plot/context so far, and it's all lovely. I'm just going over to the LJ comm to read the short but complete version =) Hmm...have you found a Beta yet? I'm not sure whether I quite have "excellent grammar skills" but I can pick up almost all the mistakes in things I'm reading, and I'd certainly be willing to Beta for you. Anyway, I look forward to seeing the rest of this in full! And now to the ginnylovesdraco version...
Author's Response: You're going to cheat and read the other version?! LOL. I'm kidding; there will be a lot more detail in this version. Nothing yet on the beta front. If you are interested, please email me at katnct@yahoo.com so I can tell you ehat precisely I'm looking for in a beta. Thanks!

I Love The Additions That You Added To The Story. Their First Meeting Should Bea Hoot. Let Me Add Iread & Commented All Of This From My Mobile. That Is Dedication. Lol :)
Author's Response: Good Lord- that's dedication. I didn't even know you could do that from a mobile! *shakes head* I am behind the times, it appears. Thanks for going to the trouble of reviewing from your mobile. I think that's so neat!

*chuckles at ‘Convoluted International Magical Agreements and Actuaries Office'*
*and at 'Frivolous Litigations Division'*
*just dissolves into more giggles*
and "ferreting" is definitely the verb of choice to be applied to anything Draco does...
BRAVO! I like it!
Author's Response: I get a kick out of creating silly department names at the Ministry.

I am enjoying this just as much as I did over at the contest LJ. I have to say the additions to the story are excellent; they fill in all sorts of gaps that weren't missing, per se, but once filled in are really delightful. Great job, and congrats again! :-)
Author's Response: Thank you! What an insightful review (my favorite kind). I had such a hard time keeping the contest version as brief (relatively speaking) as it was. I love the details and side stories- to me, those are sometimes the best aspects of a story.

Can we have another chapter, please? I'm extatic to read more about our mercenary-like Ginny!

No wonder you won the contest! :D This is absolutely delightful, both in your concise depiction of characters and seemingly diabolic(al?) plot. Uh, since I suppose this already written, please update soon? 0:) You wouldn't want to leave reader(s) agonizing for the moment when Draco and Ginny meet, would you? [puppy-eyes and trembling lip]
Author's Response: What a nice thing to say. Thanks! I'm proud of the fact that this story has a plot (and that I stuck with it), since my other works have a tendency to wander. Don't worry, updates will be regular and quick since most of the story is already written.

Absolutely brilliant! Well-written, exciting and fast-moving. Can't wait to read the rest!!!
Author's Response: Thank you! The story will start to slow down somewhat as Draco and Ginny begin to interact, but I think the situations they face help to counteract that.
