This story was adorable. I loved the cookie kiss. ;) I tried finding that ficlet on livejournal you mentioned to another reviewer but the link didn't work. Oh, well.

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Try this link to the ficlets on LJ: http://embe11ished.livejournal.com/97782.html

A very cute story. I agree with the other reviewer about it being a bit of a shock jumping from romance to kidnapped - but it worked out quickly & was very sweet.

Author's Response: Thank you!

Crossing into Chaos by Emeral_eyes    (Reviews - 512)

*Completely AU* In a world where Voldemort was never defeated, only a few things matter: pureblood, money and power. All that Ginny Weasley wanted was to survive her 7 years at Hogwarts, a school where the children of the richest and most powerful wizards dominate over others. Denying her natural instincts, she managed to make it into her 6th year without offending any of the cruel and powerful Slytherins - especially that horrible Draco Malfoy. Until one day, she crosses a line, and her peaceful existence is shattered forever. A story filled with adolescent drama, clash of the classes, angst, jealousy, ridiculous pride and love triangles (and squares).

Wow - can't believe we got an update so quickly! Another excellent chapter. I'm very nervous about where the story is heading. Thanks so much for the hard work.

Author's Response: Hehehe, yeah... Things are going to get a bit dark. Thanks for reading!

Cross-posted from your lj & fanfic.net:

Well, I spent most of the weekend reading your fic rather than doing the dishes and my other weekend chores. Now I'm craving a massive HYD rewatch (not that I don't rewatch every 6 months anyway!) and a Meteor Garden rewatch to boot and I don't usually care for that version (mainly cause he hit her once & that's a line he never crossed in the jdrama - the one thing that set her apart from every other person in his world).

I'm very much enjoying your clever mix of HP & HYD. And I'm ever so happy you've added all the kissing as that's the one thing I missed in the jdrama (though I was glad it avoided the manga's fixation on sex). I'm definitely addicted to your story & have subscribed to watch for updates!

As for the writing itself, if you even want any input in that regard, I think I would advise paying attention to the adjectives/adverbs. Two great blog posts on the subject - http:/bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/2009/06/adverbs-revisited.html & http:/bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/2010/12/weeding-out-unnecessary-adjectives-and.html

This was great - I stayed up way too late reading it. I'm sad it's complete. I was hoping to read when Feb 20th came along and Draco decided he didn't want to break up after all. ;)

I was guessing it was a baby - just because I knew it had to be a misunderstanding. Cute story though I know Ginny will be mad later when she thinks about it. I know my husband would be majorly in the doghouse if he ever overreacted like that - or accused me of such a thing.

Author's Response: Somehow, I think overreaction is Draco's forte. Thanks for the review!

I love stories that are fairytales turned on their heads so this one was great. I laughed at the frog & peas part. And the dragon - didn't see that coming. (I was highly curious about that single stolen kiss though. ;)

Author's Response: Thank you! That story was so much fun to write!
