    Summary

    In a world without Tom Riddle or Death Eaters, the wizarding class divide and prejudice still thrive. With no troll in the dungeon to solidify their friendship, Hermione Granger never forms a bond with Harry Potter or Ron Weasley. Resented and ostracised at Hogwarts for her unapologetic intellect and self-righteous superiority, Hermione spends most of her school years isolated and alone. Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy moves through the school with passiveness despite his popularity, secretly burdened by the weight of his family name and a deep discontent he cannot name. When detention entangles them together, they become drawn into the same orbit and the certainty of their separate lives begins to fray. Constantly losing and finding each other in an ambiguous path, they both navigate a gravity they cannot resist.

    If you’re looking for fluffy romance, this isn’t for you. This is a nuanced exploration of two flawed characters finding their way through a complicated connection. It’s a macroscopic observation of unresolved conflicts, shifting dynamics, and the grey areas of human relationships. At times, it will hurt. And it will frustrate. But above all, it will lay bare the messy, unvarnished truth of the human experience.

    Summary

    The trio's search for the Horcruxes was abandoned when Griphook absconded with the Sword of Gryffindor, leaving the three – traumatised and disheartened – to return to join the rest of the Order in the ongoing brutal war against Voldemort. Several months later a maimed, disillusioned, and broken Draco surrenders himself to the Order after his failures earn him Voldemort's displeasure, and Hermione finds herself the warder of the prisoner in the cellar.

    The Risk'verse Quartet is an epic, coming-of-age wartime series that follows Hermione, Draco, and the Order of the Phoenix throughout an extended war, and then onward into the aftermath. It's a realism-focused character and relationship study, with dual POV, angst and hurt/comfort, slow emotional burn w/ glacial physical burn, bickering & banter, a secret relationship, Classical Latin as a love language, violence and gore, coping with broken families, and how the brutal toll of war and trauma changes people.

    But at the heart of it all, it's about a love that eclipses everything else.

    Summary

    Elliot swallows hard. “I spent all these years acting like I had to put an ocean between us. Thought I was doing the right thing. Thought I could keep everyone happy, even at the cost of my own soul.” His voice catches, his eyes damp. “And guess what? It did nothing for my marriage, and it sure as hell did nothing for Olivia.”
    Nick doesn’t need to say it, but he does anyway. “You love her.”
    Elliot exhales sharply, shaking his head, something close to amusement flickering across his expression. “I’m not saying it first to you.”

     

    Or: Elliot makes different decisions in the past, just in time to be exactly the person Olivia needs during the worst time of her life.
    Fragments of a story about growth, reunions and absolution.

    Ironically as it seems, sometimes, breaking something is the only way to make it whole again.
