Summary: Draco has a secret, and Harry is determined to find out what it is.


As the summary says, Draco has a secret, and it's a big secret, well, it's small, but big in a manner of speaking. He doesn't date, and Harry, who very much wants to date him, wants to know why.

This story is really, really good. The characterisations, the reactions, the longing; you can tell how much Harry and Draco want to be with each other, Draco's issues about his secrets and Harry's reaction once he finds out, are just so very well done.

It's going to make you laugh and it's going to touch your heart, and then it's going to give you all the hotness you knew was coming. ^^

Summary: Harry returns to Hogwarts as the new DADA instructor, only to find his teaching efforts thwarted by a very familiar ghost.
Warning(s): MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH. Ectoplasm. A whole lot of angst and a whole lot of fluff.


The loveliest Major Character Death fic ever written.

Yes, Draco is dead, but you can trust this author with your heart, and she's not going to break it.

It's angsty, but it's just as fluffy at the same time. This defines flangst, actually. And it's so funny too.

The way Draco starts reciting Potions ingredients in alphabetical order to keep Harry up at night, and how he pesters in classes, and then getting to know each other, and how they fall in love, and how they manage to be together at last. It's absolutely lovely.

The destination is so worth this journey of 85,000 words, you're not going to regret all the hours you'll spend glued to your computer enjoying this story.

Summary: Harry Potter is an Unspeakable. Draco Malfoy is the wizard who shagged him. Adventure! Intrigue! Secret identities, celebrities, spies! It's all right here, folks.


This might be the sexiest, most intricate story I've read.

It feels like a character study, but it's a lot more than that too. There's so much action, the plot is moving constantly. And there is Harry, who is falling in love with the same person twice, that makes you think, "Harry, how can you not see?", because Draco is constantly giving himself, giving Harry everything he wants, only Harry doesn't know because in his mind he wants all that has with Draco, with Rabbit.

If you haven't read this story, I encourage you to do so, demand it, even, because this fic is unlike anything you've read before.

Summary: When Harry is sent undercover to get Draco's testimony against two suspected Death Eaters, he finds Draco living as a Muggle with no memory of his past. Harry, determined to find out who did this to Draco, finds himself enthralled by the magic of the Isle of Skye and fascinated by the stranger he thought he knew.


Exactly as the summary says. This fic is very sweet, though Draco is beyond pissed off when he finds out Harry hadn't told him the truth once they became friends, but then, it wouldn't be Malfoy if he'd been all ~understanding, yeah? And the descriptions of the Isle of Skye are beautiful, too.

Summary: Harry has seen some strange cases being an Auror, but none stranger than his latest one. It only gets more complicated when his magic begins to fail and he gets involved with Healer Malfoy.


This is a very interesting story with a lot of conspiracies. Harry's life is a mess, Ginny left him, he's not speaking to his friends, but he finds in Draco something his life has been lacking.

It's got a very intriguing plot, and plenty of romance.

Summary: Draco’s an Assistant Cursebreaker at Gringotts, Harry’s an Auror. They receive the unwanted task of troubleshooting malfunctioning magical objects at the Gringotts holiday help desk. Together. The only question is whether they will kill each other before the magical objects succeed in killing them.


Written from Draco's POV, and it has such a Draco voice about it, kind of cranky, a bit sarcastic, moody and of course, most particular about Harry who is working right next to him.

The Malfoys are awesome on this, especially Narcissa, being all chummy with Harry, she really has them all by the, erm, hair, yeah.

Summary: In the days after Hogwarts and in the midst of the war, Harry is surprised to find himself developing feelings for Draco Malfoy. At war's end, he is devastated when an unknown curse threatens to separate them forever.
Warning(s): This story is very much AU. The events of HBP happen, except Draco is not the one chosen for the mission to kill Dumbledore, so alas, no Sectumpsempra bathroom scene! It is not compliant at all with DH and Harry, Ron, and Hermione did not begin the hunt for Horcruxes until after their seventh and final year.


This story goes AU through HBP, with some events as they go in the book, but Draco's involvement on them doesn't.

It's non linear, and it tells the story of how Harry and Draco started their relationship while Draco is in a comma at St. Mungos. I like how devoted Harry is to Draco.

It's very sweet, a bit angsty, with a very surprising ending.

Summary: A Christmas Eve drive on a country road in Scotland leads you into another world: One where a celebrity bartender keeps referring to "true love".


This is such a gorgeous story. It's written in second person, and that way it truly makes you feel you're discovering the Magical World.

The descriptions, the feelings, all these things are tangible, and they take you there, you can almost see and feel as it happens.

It's very original, filled with love and magic and Christmas Spirit. Just lovely.

Summary: The Dark Lord gives Draco an impossible mission: befriend Harry Potter or face the consequences.
Warning(s): Magical AU


This fic goes AU after OotP. And Draco's mission is not to kill Dumbledore but to become friends with Harry. Poor Draco, this one doesn't seem any easier, yeah? But what Draco didn't expect was that while trying to be friends with Harry was going to become friends with Harry.

Yep, nothing like those pesky feelings to get in the way of evil plotting. This fic is so much fun to read. ^^

Summary: Harry thought he knew how far Draco Malfoy would go to save his family, but nothing could have prepared him for what he would witness this time.
Warning(s): Mpreg


This story has two things I love, well, it has many! But two main things I love. One; Mpreg, and two; Draco being Harry's charge and living in his house.

I love that because living with a person really makes you see them under a different light, specially these two who, apparently are "practicing the same religion".

This fic is wonderful.
