Seraphina Iolanthe Potter was born a year after her older brother James Fleamont Potter. As such, it was not without fun and laughter that she grew up in the shadow of a war that would change her life forever.
Seri enters her seventh year at Hogwarts, unsure what adventures await her as she begins her first and only year without her older brother and closest friends with her. It is only then when she finds herself in a train compartment with her now distant childhood friend, Regulus Black, now cold and cruel as his reputation. Read to follow Seri and Regulus's journey of growth, self-discovery, and, most importantly, love.
Sequel coming soon :)
