You have no idea how hard it is to live out a great romance. ~ Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of WindsorCategory: Works in Progress
When an engaged Ginny Weasley was traded to the Wimbourne Wasps, she never expected to fall in love with teammate Draco Malfoy. She certainly never expected their love letters to be stolen and published to the entire Wizarding public. This is a story of how a love affair began and the scandal that rocked Wizarding society.

The last thing Ginny expected when she got called into work was a promotion; and she certainly didn’t expect the disruption it would cause to her carefully constructed life.Category: Works in Progress

Loved this chapter. It would be cool to see one in Draco's POV to see what he really thinks of Ginny.

When a case of workplace sexual harassment leaves Ginny in a truly desperate state, the natural thing to do is to convince Draco Malfoy to pretend to be her boyfriend. Naturally.Category: Works in ProgressWritten for SunnyStorms in The DG Forum's 2015 Winter Fic Exchange.
Well that was a wild start! Love it so far!

Ginny isn't afraid of the shadows--after all, darkness came and made its home in her head when she was just a child. She's made a happy, if lonely, home in the Forbidden Forest, but the ancient magic dwelling there has its own plans for her happily ever after.Category: Works in Progress
Wow fantastic beginning. Very ominous and lovely written.
Love this very unique story! Thanks!
Author's Response: Thank you!
After five months, Blaise and Luna's relationship is on the rocks and breaking up fast. He's callous; she's determined to teach him a lesson. Ginny is all too willing to contribute to Luna's cause, and Draco... well, he just keeps stepping right into the middle of things and suffering the consequences.Category: Works in Progress
Yes! Lovely reveal!
Author's Response: Thank you! I was a little worried that I had drawn it out too long, given that I probably set the expectation for an immediate transformation based on the last few lines of the previous chapter--a little more character exposition felt necessary though. Thanks for being one of the regular readers and reviewers!
Definitely anticipating the next chapter. Poor Draco...unfortunately getting in the way of the girls' revenge.
Author's Response: Draco is quite fun to write-he's so helpful when it comes to getting himself in trouble. It's definitely helping me to get the chapters out sooner rather than later! Thanks for the review!
Brilliant start! Can't wait for more.
Author's Response: Thank you!
Perhaps they would have been happy anywhere else, but Draco knew that they were doomed here. This might as well be a bullfight, and he the bull.Category: Completed Short Stories
An extended metaphor of Ginny and Draco's relationship--how could they succeed with the world against him?
That was utterly beautiful! Your writings always so captivating.
Author's Response: Aw, thank you! I appreciate that you review so much!
During the war, Draco and Ginny are hiding together in a small cottage in the Cotswolds. They could both use a little cheer and comfort, and maybe some romance. A Secret Santa gift for writerdragonfly.Category: Completed Short Stories
**********************
He smiled then, so abruptly that Ginny thought it must be genuine. How he must have looked as a child on Christmas morning, waking to a mountain of presents. Her heart ached. The Malfoys must have had their moments; otherwise, he could not be so sad now. Like she was. The sadness was palpable, and she was tired of it. For one night, they would be as merry as if they were secluded here by choice.
She’d never asked why he was here with her or why he hadn’t handed her over to the Dark Lord when he had the chance. It was oddly noble and yet she couldn’t think he’d done it for noble reasons. She couldn’t bear it if he had. Too many people she knew had done the noble thing and died for it. Give her a selfish reason any day.
This is amazing! Thanks.

Running off to the Continent had seemed romantic in the misery of Post-War London. Too bad it didn’t last. That was 5 years ago. Ginny gets the reunion she’s never really wanted in the most awkward way. Draco/Ginny. Blaise/Luna.Category: Works in Progress
Lovely first chapter. Really captured my attention. Can't wait for more.
Draco's just been fired from his job, confirming, once and for all, that his attempts to turn his reputation around have been futile. Luckily, someone is waiting for him at home, and her opinion of him is all that matters.Category: Completed Short Stories
