   Summary

   Post-war Wizarding Britain never truly changed after the war. It’s 2009 and Hermione Granger is on the fast track to becoming the youngest Minister for Magic. But power in magical Britain is precarious. In a second, Hermione's world comes crashing down. A marriage law is invoked. Hermione must pioneer it or risk everything she holds dear.

   But there’s more to the story, making Hermione question everything she ever believed in.

   She would be Minister. At any cost.

   She just didn't expect to be doing it with Draco Malfoy at her side.

   OR

   If no one would let her be Minister, she was going to take it. And Draco Malfoy was going to help her do it.
