Summary:

Fourteen years after the Final Battle, Hermione Granger is finally content with her life.  Ensconced three years earlier as Hogwart's newest Potions Professor, she’s carefully crafted a steady, familiar world that’s miles away from the secrets and mistakes haunting her past.  But a surprise announcement at the start-of-term Feast is about to change all that.

Convalescing at St. Mungo’s, Severus Snape has spent the last fourteen years existing in a state of semi-Petrification, un-aged and very much unchanged.  The sudden awakening of the venerated war-hero is heralded throughout the land, but the reclusive Snape desires nothing more than a return to his post as Potions Professor at Hogwart’s.

Sparks begin to fly when the two Professors are forced to work together, their strong personalities clashing at each turn.  The tension builds even as they find their immense dislike for one another tempered by a begrudging respect.  As a tenuous understanding blossoms, so too does a mutual attraction, igniting a passion that cannot be denied even as it is being threatened. 

For a predator lurks in the shadows, with a macabre plan to alter the course of the wizarding world forever.  Trying to outmaneuver an evil that will stop at nothing to achieve its goals, they devise a cunning plan of their own and embark on a journey marked by danger and discovery.  One will find out that no secret is ever safe, while the other will learn the past cannot be buried.  With so much at stake, will the pair be able to pass the ultimate test of trust and love?

Additional Comments:

I need someone to help polish my grammar, and I would love some advice on pacing, flow, and plot.  I’d rather shed a tear over a brutally honest critique that teaches me something than be falsely flattered.

The lovely

lettybird

 has graciously agreed to Brit-pick the story (a task she’s probably regretting already!).  And the charming  savine_snape has offered her cheerleading skills to my fic, whilst encouraging me to ‘get thee to a Perfect Imagination beta’…

I await your response with eager anticipation!

"Heffbert!" She gasped, astonished to find him here. Her voice was abnormally gritty, she initially felt bad that her voice had come out that way, but his persistent glare left her unnerved and not sorry.
    "You lied to me. You said you would come get me. You said you would take me away," She went on, as each word escaped, there seemed to be an angrier substance behind them. She was leaning over the cliff now, perched on the edge, her hands reaching out to him, not noticing, until her needy outreach, that each of her fingernails had turned into dainty razored claws.     
    The weak vision, apparition, whatever it was of Heffbert - hanging below in the air, suspended by invisible strings, or hands, bombed with uproarious laughter. She reeled backwards and threw her hands over her ears.  
    "You're in too deep, kid." His voice was the exact tone she remembered. Dry and leathery, tweaked with condescension.

Thanks for checking this out! Have a lovely day. : )

* Additional Comments: This story is in chapters and I have up to 13 chapters so far that I've felt that are completed. At the moment I estimate about 20 chapters total. I've been working on this story for 4 years and I don't mind waiting more to complete it. I had my close friends to help me out with beta reading my stories, but they have been really busy and I haven't waited to give them extra work. I haven't had feedback in quite sometime now and I run into a bit of writer's block because of it. I would really appreciate someone who flexible in opinions, but can give comprehensive critique along with doing the essentials to my story. A beta reader really good in characterization, plots, grammar & spelling. I have posted another AD on the Betas 4 Hire group and I thought to expand on my search for a beta reader here as well. Let me know if you need anymore information about it. Please and Thank you :)
