    Summary

    Pansy Parkinson was the last person Neville expected to find in the underbelly of the ministry archives. Neville Longbottom is the absolute last thing Pansy needs disrupting the secluded life she's carefully carved out for herself.

    Too bad for both of them, he's never been one to walk away from a flower in need.

    _____________________________

    “Hello?” he called out, before knocking on the tightly shut door. The space was so eerily quiet and empty, that for a moment he wondered if anyone had remembered that they were supposed to meet him here. “Erm…I’ve got an appointment? Longbottom? Here to see ah… the… well, I suppose the archivist?”

    There was the sound of a chair scraping against the floor and several objects being moved around. Then the door opened just a fraction.

    “You’re here about the Malfoy property records?” Asked a prim little voice from behind the barrier.

    “I am.”

    A pale, delicate hand slipped through the crack in the door and handed him a too-slim folder.

    He took note of the slender fingers that held the folder before the hand disappeared once more; they ended in pearlescent pink-tipped nails.

    Merlin, he really was a fool for pretty hands.

    Summary

    Pansy Parkinson isn't used to acts of kindness, least of all from Gryffindors. So when Neville Longbottom catches her off-guard with something startlingly close to genuine care, she doesn't quite know how to handle it and soon finds herself drawn into the mud-spattered humidity of the greenhouse, elbows-deep in a pair of truly abhorred gardening gloves.
    But under storm clouds and soil-soaked truths, something unexpected takes root; something soft, strange, and maybe worth holding onto.

    Summary

    Neville Longbottom has spent the majority of his life trying to live up to the legacy set by his parents. To do what they would have done, to make them proud. So when he discovers what is about to happen to one of his former classmates, agreeing to help her is an easy promise to make.

    Even if it means marrying Pansy Parkinson.

    As her secrets unfold, however, and he begins to see beyond her manipulations to the person she truly is, he begins to question how he will ever be able to keep his promise to free her in the end.

    Summary

    “I hate the Floo,” he says. It just comes out of him, like the time he’d jinxed himself to vomit slugs. “It gives me migraines for days afterward. S’why I asked Nott for a Portkey.”

    Pansy laughs ruefully, pulling her fisherman’s beanie on a little tighter. Her feet stay planted where they are. “I have my reasons, too,” she says.

    He holds out his hand in a flourish, motioning for her to list them.

    “It’s none of your—” She stops. “Look,” she says, her gaze at her feet before she meets his. “I’m not just being a cunt. Traveling with me is…complicated.”

    Summary

    Now that he can’t remember how he got any of it, however, he’s in danger of losing everything.

    He has to fight to keep what he wants, if only he could remember how he did it the first time.

    Summary

    Pansy Parkinson’s plan for repairing her reputation has everything to do with earning her place in wizarding society and nothing to do with finding a man. But when the pursuit of those goals leads to Neville Longbottom and his fascinating plant collection, she questions the need to choose. While summer seethes with cross-pollination between Pansy’s wants and needs, rot threatens as autumn rises: a sickness that can kill, with a cure that can only come from the heart.

    After her father died in the Battle of Hogwarts, Pansy Parkinson believed she was free. Three months before her twenty-fourth birthday, however, her guardian is found and invokes her ancient family rites to issue an ultimatum. Forced to choose between the loss of any autonomy or of her magic itself, she has exactly one loophole.

    Marriage to Neville Longbottom.

    But as she grows to know her new husband, she realizes that he's nothing like the boy she used to bully in school. Unfortunately, some wizards will stop at nothing for revenge and Pansy has to decide how much she can ask of the man she convinced to marry her.

    Summary

    Penelope Featherington is officially over Colin Bridgerton.

    Deservedly so. She’d worked tirelessly over the last twelve months to move on from him. She’d listened to Lizzo on repeat, read every self-help book under the sun, been to therapy, and even changed the plot of her novel from a coming-of-age romance to a zombie thriller in a world devoid of men. In fact, she was seeing someone, not exclusively, but it was certainly heading in that direction. She’d done everything in her power to move on from her stupid, heart-wrenching, soul-destroying crush. Everything short of having a lobotomy.

    Which was why it was a tad concerning that she’d just shagged him.

    Summary

    Every Monday (and on special occasions) Penelope took her husband to bed.

    It was an agreement, after a year of marriage, that they would finally explore each other for the sake of having a child. It did not mean anything, not at all.

    Summary

    They say that when a butterfly flaps its wings it can be felt on the other side of the world. Indeed, we live in bondage with utter chaos. Even the smallest decisions might send us hurtling toward unknown fates.

    What might have changed had Penelope told Colin privately that her cousin Marina Thompson was with child? Not an easy scandal from which to untangle himself without the public protection of Lady Whistledown’s society papers.

    In the face of being threatened both legally and socially to see through his proposal to Marina, Colin just might embrace the adage that chaos creates the opportunities for change we need and instead offers a proposal, to marry Penelope instead.

    Penelope tries her best to escape the engagement all the while working with the Bridgertons to track down Sir George Crane to make him pay for his crimes.

    All is well until the moment Penelope walks down the aisle, content that she will find her freedom in this loveless marriage, Colin finally pays attention to the beating in his heart, the flutter of butterfly wings. What has he done?

    Summary

    “I can’t believe you put your ring in,” she accused under her breath. “I thought you and Potter were together!”

    “Harry’s the best,” Theo told her in an excited undertone. “He’s also unexpectedly extremely possessive; Pans, it’s so hot.” He whined and she tsked. “He told me to come back smelling like someone else’s cologne so that’s what I intend to do. I really, really can’t wait.”

    “Don’t be vulgar.” Draco had charmed the bowl to divide the rings into pairs and she didn’t have the head on her for a proper dressing down of Theo’s oversharing.

    She forced herself not to be hopeful but despite her relentless will against it, felt the flicker of it just behind her heart as Draco began rattling off names.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean… I’m sure it isn’t true.” Neville rambled, his shoulders shrinking away all of the tall confidence he had walked with a moment ago.

    “Don’t be an idiot. Of course it’s true. Read the papers in a week, you’ll see.”

    “Oh.” He almost looked more disappointed than she had been. Such unnecessary emotion. What did Draco see in these Gryffindors?

    “Don’t you dare pity me.” Pansy pulled out her wand, ignoring his slight flinch as she charmed her glass to fill and took a deep drink.

    The liquor warmed her veins, clouding her concentration and lowering her guard. She thought out loud, half forgetting that she had an audience. “Draco always wanted her, you know. I’m not blind. It was third year, maybe fourth? Suddenly he worshipped her. He set her up on a great pedestal and made it impossible to climb. And I just…I need to know, I think, is it too much to ask? For the rest of us, us mortals, to be…

    “Worshipped?” his voice was soft and overly intimate, making her lips part in a silent gasp.

    Summary

    Pansy Parkinson learned early on in life that everyone has scars. She learned it at seven years old, from the nail indentations that were embedded deep into her wrist. She learned it at twelve, from the little mark above her right eyebrow, put there by the corner of a large emerald ring. She learned it at sixteen, when she caught her elbow on the bannister of the stairs, in an attempt to resist the force trying to push her down. But she also learned it at seventeen, when she finally escaped her family home. Again at twenty-one, when her father died. And then again, at twenty-five, when she had her first and only heartbreak.

    OR

    Pansy Parkinson navigates life after it falls apart, deals with her past, and ends up getting a second chance with a certain plant-obsessed man she never expected to love in the first place.
