twenty-something who indulges in Draco/Ginny fan-fiction while juggling a full time job and a full time school schedule. I love red wine and cooking good food...especially Italian. I love reading the stories posted on this site and I hope to one day write one of my own.

Contractual Obligations by gidge_8    (Reviews - 751)

Selling herself into a marriage contract, Ginny finds herself playing a deadly game, ultimately pitting her husband against her lover and a father against his son. Many twists and turns, depth and evil characters - and a long story of sweet and true love.

New! Epilogue is up! Yes, I know, the story has been "complete" for a couple of years, but this ending has been partially written for a long time and it ties up some loose ends.

So where does Draco go on the weekends? Does this have anything to do with that Muggle village Gin went to before she married?

Author's Response: Hmmmm..... no comment. :D

I think you are doing a great job with this story. I like how you balance the sheer horror Ginny is going through with the tenderness of Draco's soothing touch. I know it's only going to get worse before it gets better so I am gripping the seat waiting for Lucius to catch them.

Author's Response: Thank you! I am so into the psychology of her feelings in this situation. It's actually quite interesting to get into while I'm writing. As always, thank you for letting me know.

Your words are so powerful, I often am afraid to read ahead because I was scared to read them get caught!

Author's Response: Wow. Thank you very much. It's nice to know all my hard work seems to be worth it. :)

I am interested to see how they are going to convine Lucius that the baby is his....can't wait for part 2!

Author's Response: Ahh! Bella will definitely have fun there. Hope I can get some time to write soon, or by some miracle, find the scene that I misplaced.

I love how this story has progressed. I feel like I know what is going to happen next but I really don't. I think that Lucius will find out but then again you never know...

Author's Response: Thank you! I did try to keep the story moving forward and developing as it goes. The mood changes a little here, but still a few chapters to go! Best wishes! G

This chapter was worth the wait. It is not easy to write battle scenes but I think you tackled it very well. I was wondering how this was going to pan out and I am not disappointed.



Author's Response: Thanks so much. I actually tried to avoid writing the battle because it seemed a bit much to take on. But, the story wasn't right without it. So glad that you enjoyed.

How come I have a feeling that this is not going to be the perfect happily ever after?

Author's Response: Well, we *know* Lucius won't just go away. *evil grin* I am sooooo tempted to say more, but I won't. :D

The Middle by jessica k malfoy    (Reviews - 13)

Beware the Ides of March. Ginny doesn't know what that means, Draco is convinced it's nothing. That fortune doesn't help their already rocky relationship.

Wow that was pretty heavy...I mean Harry always struck me as the depressing type, but suicide? Nicely done though, and if I've learned anything in life, it is always tragedy (unfortunately) that brings us closer together.

You've set the bar pretty high and the tone very serious, but on the good side it looks as if you have given yourself a lot of potential material to work with. I would like to continue further and learn why the "dream team" is now so reviled and just what happens to send Ginny over the edge and into the arms of our dearest Draco. On the other side of this, you could also run into potential blocks along the way in terms of wrapping the story up. Overall though I think it has potential and I really enjoy reading a cynical Ginny, it's refreshing.

Author's Response: I'll try to keep what you said in mind. I have the whole story planned out, with just a few final details to iron over. I think you'll like where its going. Thanks!

Wow I would have been completely pissed off too. They are really full of themselves huh? Good chapter, can't wait to read the next one.

Author's Response: Ginny does get pissed, right now she's just in shock. Thank you and keep reading.

These types of stories always make me sad and happy at the same time. There could have been so much love between them...a lifetime of love. But there is no greater sacrifice than giving up your life so that others can live.

Author's Response: tinamarie, I know exactly what you mean...those "what if" fics are kind of heartbreaking. Thanks for taking the time to review, and I'm glad you liked it. ^_^

This was a great story. I was confused in the begning so I tried to read it twice and it turns out there really is no explanation to how they all end up in the same place at the begining (and end) of the story. Overall I loved it, I like stories which show the outsider persepctive in this case Mione and how she realizes that they all damned Draco but they were guilty of neglecting and respecting Ginny. Oh and their secret marraige...I loved it.

Author's Response: Thank you! It's been mentioned that my story is a bit confusing, but thanks for trying to figure it out! A little bit of mystery is always good. Their secret marriage is the best part, and thank you so much!

This was a great one shot! I've never heard a Taylor Swift song before (I know I'm so sheltered, or just call me a music snob) so I don't think it's a song fic at all!

Author's Response: thank you! i've seen so many fics that just have lyrics from songs planted right in the middle of them and that really bugs me, so i wanted to make sure i didn't do that! I'm glad you liked it.

Not This Time by antidote    (Reviews - 53)

A knock sounded at her door, and Ginny smiled slightly. Five years of absolute closeness, yet Draco refused to be ‘vulgar.’ Knocking on the door, he said, was more honorable than simply bursting into her home or appearing in her fireplace. Giving her the privacy she needed, he said, was more upstanding than forcing his company on her when unwanted.

It is nice to see that Ginny's relationship with her daughter is a gradual thing as opposed to the instant "I love you" which wouldn't appeal to me at all. Thanks for making it realistic and still a joy to read. I also like the idea of Ron and Pansy together, they've always struck me as a cute couple.
