One of the best Draco/Hermione fics out there, the fact that it's a one-shot, definitely adds to it's positive traits as you don't need a lot of time to read it (though even if you did, I think it's worth the time). It's Post-Hogwarts and Post-Voldemort so the characters are older, hence the R rating.

I decided to make this my first recommendation as this is mostly the reason I am a D/Hr shipper even if, for the real HP books, I'm rooting for Ron and Hermione to get together. This is the story that got me to believe that it's really possible to write Draco and Hermione developing feelings, other than hate, for each other. Anyway, for those of you who don't like D/Hr ships, hopefully this is enough to change your mind.
