Summary
When the Ministry enforces a Marriage Law, Hermione Granger refuses to be bound by it, especially after her fiancé chooses his assigned partner over her. To escape the Ministry’s control, she resigns her magical rights, sacrificing the freedom of spellwork for the freedom to choose her own life.
Now working as liaison between the Muggle Prime Minister and the wizarding world, Hermione maintains a fragile peace between both sides. But when she’s accused of unlawful magic, her already limited rights come under the scrutiny of Auror Draco Malfoy.
She can’t straddle two worlds forever. When the thirty-day mark of her audit approaches, the choices she’s made along the way, and some she didnt realize, will draw its final line in the sand.

Summary
For a moment, she's almost giddy. Because Draco Malfoy's been ruined by this war and he's as out of place as she is and — yes, he has scars too. He's got an even bigger one. She wonders whether one day they'll compare sizes.

Summary
It’s the smell of it. Chemical. Bitter and sharp as a raw edge on metal. Just a hint of it as she passes him at breakfast — but enough to stop her dead, mid-step.
There is Wolfsbane in his tea.

Summary
"Oh come on Granger, don't be such a stick in the mud. Your precious Gryffindor ex isn't hesitating to string your heart out for everyone to see. He doesn't care that you are being humiliated. He doesn't care that everyone is spreading horrible rumors about you. All I'm suggesting is to give him a bit of his own back," he paused then, his voice going softer, suggestive. "I know you have it in you, I've seen you in action. Rita Skeeter, Umbridge, Me…you don't hesitate to serve it up when someone's got it coming. And he's got it coming Granger."

Summary
It isn't often Hermione Granger does stupid things, but making up a boyfriend to avoid pity from her ex and saying she'll bring the made up man to a couple's getaway certainly could be classified as one of her stupider moments. Enter Draco Malfoy, who suggests an arrangement: they pose as a couple long enough for her to keep her pride, and for him to better the Malfoy name by dating a war heroine. What could go wrong?
