Despite the fact that this story is on FIA, my favorite type of story still leaves the reader guessing until the end. What I mean is, I love stories where you read the whole chapter, knowing that Ginny is deeply involved with some man, but you don't know who that man is until the end. You wrote this perfectly and had I not known this was a D/G, I still would have been immensely satisfied with the outcome of the story. (sorry if that doesn't quite make sense).
I love how you were able to keep their emotions separate and distinct, easily delving into Ginny's psyche before jumping into Draco's thoughts and worries. I very much enjoyed reading this and appreciate any author's bravery and willingness to publicly post a story for anyone to read. Fantastic read, very well done

I can not tell you how many times I have read and reread this story. It has become one of my favorites simply because it is so short and direct. I love the longing and desire you create within Draco and Ginny without directly mentioning them as far as their emotions and thoughts. I love that you give a peek into the time they did spend together at Hogwarts but not enough to weigh down the story with the details of how they came to be and then how they broke it off. I love how you write Ginny as brave and courageous but still so hesitant for love, and Draco as strong and stoically sound. I generally just love, love, LOVE this story

Silence by serinah    (Reviews - 82)

My name is Ginevra Malfoy. I am a wife to the Minister's third in command, a Death Eater, and the coldest man I have ever known.


Who would have thought that when Harry killed Voldemort the purists would still come to power? Who would have thought that when the marriage law is enforced, a Malfoy would propose to a Weasley? And who in their right mind could have foreseen that Harry Potter would ask her to say yes? This is a tale about a failing marriage and a society spiralling towards civil war.

Every time I read the new chapter with this story, I love it even more. I was so pleased to see that you went the time skips route to where you are jumping back and forth between the past and present day. I feel that way of writing gives the reader more perspective and makes you anticipate what more will happen.
That being said, and my obvious obsession with this story, if you are looking to put out the next chapter sooner rather than later, I would be more than willing to be your BETA for a chapter or two. I only have one story on here but I am under the penname "Lucky Th13rteen" on ff.net and there are almost a dozen other one shots or stories on there. Message me here or there if you are interested, I would love to see your writing continued at your own pace rather than someone else's

Author's Response: Thanks! I would love to have another beta, but I think my fifth will be back soon, so no point in sendig it to you. I'll send you the sixth as soon as it's ready, alright? There actually is only two chapters left, fifth and sixth. I'll get in touch soon! Thanks again!
