Bookmarker's Notes
Really interesting take on a different father for Harry. Love how it's created subtle differences in his character like being more secretive, less willing to forgive or overlook being betrayed, his growing strength both magically and physically.... can't wait to see where the story goes
Ch. 45, 6/9/26

Series is complete
Book 1 - When Harry goes back to Hogwarts for a so-called Eighth Year, he's told by McGonagall that he has to share a room with Draco and that they had better both behave or else they'd *both* be expelled. Rather than grumble, both try to make the best of the situation with Draco providing (non-sexual) comfort each night when Harry has nightmares. Slowly, Harry grows ever more confused about the gorgeous Slytherin.
Book 2 - A year after leaving Hogwarts, Draco reads about Harry's engagement in the Daily Prophet, only when he goes to congratulate him, learns that it's not true. Able to commiserate, Draco suggests that they fake an engagement, which, after a bit of wondering how that would work, Harry agrees to. They only have one condition, and that's to have as much fun as possible with this show of theirs.
