Summary: Harry is miserable and tired of being an Auror, coasting through life until he’s forced to make some changes. Spurred on by his passion for drawing and working with best-selling author Draco Malfoy, Harry develops a charm which gives children a magical, interactive reading experience. But when it’s time to test the spell, the two men find themselves trapped in a nightmarish fairy tale world. Can they escape unscathed, or is Draco right in his assertions that there is no such thing as a happily ever after?

Well, the summary of this fic is going to give you a pretty good idea what the story is about. And it goes like that, Harry, realising he doesn't want to be an Auror, quits, and becomes an illustrator of children's books. However, he wants to create more, a fairytale world, a book in which children can go into and interact, even chose how they want their adventure to go, always reaching a happy ending. And for his, he asks Draco, who is a well-known writer, to work with him, but when they try the charm that would take them into the story, well, things don't go as expected.

Once they enter into the tale, they are faced with more than just the story they created, but aso their nightmares and fears, and the question is, will they find their Happily Ever After? Well, that's for you to discover.

There's gorgeous art along with this story, of Harry and Draco, of them in the story, truly amazing. And as an extra bonus, a fanmix at the end with all the music that inspired this fic.

This story was wonderful and so heartbreaking. It's a happy ending but not to know Harry sacrificed that much for Draco to trap part of himself into the Mirror of Souls. It's a lot like a Grimm's Fairytale. I loved it but I can't help but feel sad at the end even though it's technically a happy ending.
