Summary
Hermione Granger is tired of being everyone’s gracious War Hero. Luckily, there’s one person at Hogwarts she’s allowed to be horrible to, guilt-free: Draco Malfoy, who is so busy trying to be perfect and rehabilitate his family name that he hasn’t noticed the closest he comes to actually enjoying himself is whenever she’s being horrible to him.
They’re going to make eighth year completely unbearable for each other. And McGonagall is going to make them pay for it—together.

Or: The Parent Trap's enemies-to-forced-proximity-to-friends-to-house-swap arc, minus (STAY WITH ME) the part where it's all in service of children getting their problematic parents back together.

Summary
To subvert a corrupt marriage law, Hermione Granger weds Azkaban prisoner Draco Malfoy. But nothing goes according to plan as he’s released into her custody and bound by a magical ring that forces his obedience—nevermind the fact that they have been stupidly pining over each other for years. Unfortunately, murder gets in the way of romance. Someone wants her dead. Someone wants him silenced. All while their paper marriage burns into something undeniable, dangerous, and very, very real.
A thrillomance murder mystery.

Summary
Seven years after the war, blood prejudice simmers beneath the surface. The Ministry is slipping backward. Death Eaters are being released and hidden, the Wizengamot is corrupt, the Wizarding world is divided and justice is little more than a memory.
Hermione Granger leads a quiet, unremarkable life as a forensic specialist with the Auror Department until a string of mysterious murders upends everything. The victims? Former Death Eaters and known blood purists. The method? Muggle bullets.
As the investigation unfolds, a new decree threatens to upend her world even further: the Marriage Law. And to her horror, Hermione is paired with none other than Draco Malfoy.
But the man she’s forced to marry isn’t the boy she remembers. With his inked skin, a hidden control room, and a dangerous fascination with Muggle weaponry, Draco Malfoy is nothing like she expected. And perhaps more dangerous than the killer she’s hunting.

Summary
Six years after the war, Hermione finds herself the caretaker of a mysterious, sentient library. Charged with unravelling the secrets of Myrddin Hall, she spends her days translating and disenchanting ancient texts, all while searching for something she can't yet name.
Meanwhile, Draco has spent his years carefully dismantling the world as he knows it, and finds himself asking impossible questions—the kind that can only be answered with the help of a mystical library, and the woman who understands it.
ALTERNATIVELY: two arrogant fools conduct a research study on liminality—and while searching for magic, they find something more like love, instead.

Summary
It was proving an awful year for Draco Malfoy.
His father was in prison, madness growing by the day; his all-powerful and unpredictable master had given him an impossible task simply to find an overly-complicated and overly-dramatic excuse to murder him; and finally, his girlfriend — who could help tremendously by offering some much needed stress-relief — was being a total prude!
That all changes when Hermione Granger catches him entering the Room of Requirement. Lucky enough to subdue her under the Imperius Curse, Draco enlists the golden girl’s help in accomplishing his mission… and, to be of use in other ways.
