Hesperides' Apple by ogygiasylph    (Reviews - 871)

When Ginny Weasley becomes Draco Malfoy's wife, he suspects neither her true identity nor her dangerous motives. But when all Hell breaks lose and their relationship takes unexpected turns, there is more at stake than preserving their marriage--namely, preserving their lives.

Loving this story! Thank you!! There are so many plot possibilities that I don't even want to begin to speculate. Happily awaiting for you to reveal it in your good time.

I love this world you've drawn. A little frightening to think about the revenge Ginny must be plotting.

Author's Response: It is, isn\'t it. We\'re lucky she wouldn\'t risk going to Azkaban just to get back at him. Oh wait... Wouldn\'t she? Thank you for taking the time to review :)

Great chapter!!! Thank you so much. The last part of this chapter was particularly poignant. Although, the entire story has been suffused with intelligence and charm.

Author's Response: Thank you! You\'re very welcome :) I\'m glad you\'re enjoying it all, even the cute and cuddly fluff in the snow--wishful thinking on my part, lol.

I was delighted to find this chapter posted when I woke up this morning! Twins! Not a surprise. And did Draco actually kill all the Weasleys? If so, that's too deep a hole for him to dig out of isn't it? So I'm hoping it's not true!

In your response to Anise's review [below] you mention that Draco hasn't done anything too terrible to Ginny, the butter knife not being so bad. Does this mean that he really isn't responsible for the death of her family, that it's just a misunderstanding? Because I can't see how she could ever get beyond the fact that he was the one who got them killed.

I'm a bit confused...would she be able to talk about visiting Bill without rancour?

Shall Rise Again by Peki    (Reviews - 292)

Sequel to Break in the sun (till the sun breaks down). For a few blissful hours, the differences between them did not matter. But as Draco and Ginny struggle with their budding relationship, they must soon discover that many things separate them still - family, friends and society as well as their own explosive tempers. The future they want for themselves comes at a price, and reconciling what they each want out of life is a challenge that might just break them apart...

Perfect, flawless, amazing, delightful chapter! I truly squeal with glee when I see you've posted and print/run off to hide in the living room with a cup of cream and sugared sumatra to read, read, read. Thank you so much!!

This lovely little story was my bedtime treat last night and brought tears to my eyes in several places. It had a very authentic HP voice. Most fanfic writers do not achieve that. So it was delightful. Thank you!

Author's Response: Tears? Hopefully the good kind. What an amazingly lovely thing to say, about the voice- that may be the best compliment I\'ve ever had on my writing, so thank you, Marcia, and happy Christmas!

Oh, I loved this when I read it over at the fic xchg or whereever I first found it and I told you so then. I know people will beg for more, but it's perfect as it is. Unless you want to write a scifi future fic where they meet again and are on a karmic plane to be together finally! Thank you for the lovely story.

The Fairytale Hunter by Black Alnair    (Reviews - 21)

“Draco emerged from his third fairytale that month entirely exhausted. And worse of all, his tights were riding up. Again.” Some fluff for dragonlilleth, fallenwitch and jandjsalmon as a thank you. But watch out for Draco’s potty mouth!

*Entirely way too influenced by you, FW, but at least, you manage to take that as a compliment – cough, cough.*

The Slytherin's Witch by fallenwitch    (Reviews - 81)

One heartbroken witch, one Death Eater wizard, a dash of Firewhisky and a Muggle pub all add up to a dark and twisted romance with buckets of angst and a shot of humour. “Be careful, Gin. Not only is he a little unbalanced, but he’s also got the worst of the wizarding world out to kill him. Call me if you need me.”

“You mustn’t tell them, Rose! Harry knows but Lily and the boys… you can’t breathe a word…”

When Rose Weasley went to her favorite aunt for advice on how to handle loving someone her family disapproved of, she never dreamed the older woman would have been able to relate so well. In the comfortable safety of her kitchen, Ginevra Potter told her niece everything and swore her to secrecy. But months later, when Ginevra notices that her daughter, Lily, is spending time with Scorpius Malfoy, Ginny realizes too late that the truth can never really be locked away. Children question their parents and their own identities and everyone must confront the past.

way too much time, too many words, devoted to whining and crying. and it's hard to believe that ginny would have forgiven lucius for putting tom's diary in her cauldron first year.

Author's Response: Ginny didn't forgive him necesarrily, but she did support Draco and the fact that Draco needed his father. Also, she got a different view of Lucius from how Draco viewed him, a man who screwed up really really bad and then ended up struggling to keep his family safe.
