Summary
Maverick really should have known better than to promise to settle things with Rooster after the mission and still expect them all to come through unscathed.Maverick’s second ejection in a month didn’t leave him quite as uninjured as he’d thought it had, and it’s Rooster that has to try to pick up the pieces. Luckily he has a whole aircraft carrier of people to pull him through.

Summary
Awareness crept in slowly, awareness, but not recognition. It was disorienting, not knowing where one was, how long one had been asleep, or... anything. The past was a blank, the present a mystery. There was an attempt to stir, but the body did not budge. Hands, eyes, breathing? Air entered lungs, air exited lungs, and the only thing that changed that rhythm was the rising panic of waking up paralyzed and confused.

Summary
Hermione Granger has carved out a successful career writing about everything from illegal dragon breeders to Las Vegas mermaids to shoe-dodging Muggle leaders. On the outs with The Daily Prophet, she gets an offer she refuses over and over and over again– the once-in-a-lifetime chance to write a profile on a disgraced and banished former Death Eater.
Except that “disgraced and banished former Death Eater” is Draco Malfoy, widowed and squirreled away in a secret location after he violated the terms of his post-war probation. No one knows where he is. No one knows his story. And he says that it’s Hermione Granger or no one.
Game on.
But over the course of six months, she learns that things aren’t always what they seem and people may not be who they once were.

Summary
Draco Malfoy suffers from a rare, progressive curse that no one has been able to break. His magic weakens, his body fails, and the best specialists helplessly throw up their hands. The prognosis is merciless: one year to live, perhaps less.
Hermione Granger, one of the best in her field, a specialist in hopeless cases, is asked for a consultation. Reluctantly, she agrees to take on the assignment, which at first seems like just another difficult case.
But this curse doesn't fit any known classification. Neither does the patient himself—surprisingly likable, intelligent, at times disarmingly normal. The more Hermione asks, the more clearly she sees that the answers she seeks aren't found in medical books—they're in him. And he's not willing to give her all of them.
Over time, what begins to disturb her isn't the curse itself, but how easily everyone has accepted it. How quietly they disappear, those whom no one tries to save.- Language:

Summary
Five years after the war, Hermione Granger has very little time for something like a relationship. She's far too busy trying to run the Bureau for Endangered Creatures efficiently, dealing with budget cuts and ignorant ministry officials and finding a way to somehow restore her parents' memories, who are still in Australia and none the wiser about the existence of their daughter.
When she discovers that the Wizengamot plans to use Draco Malfoy as a scapegoat whilst dealing with elusive Voldemort loyalists, she offers to testify for him. She's not quite sure how it led to her trying on wedding dresses under the watchful eye of Narcissa Malfoy.
