The headlines called it a scandal. She called it survival. Hermione Granger had spent years building a life she could be proud of-until a very public betrayal shattered it all. Cheated on, humiliated, and thrown into the center of wizarding society's gossip mill, she's left with two choices: hide from the world or rise above it. And rising is exactly what she does. With the support of an unexpected circle of Slytherin friends-and one infuriatingly charming Draco Malfoy-Hermione transforms. No longer the girl who let others dictate her worth, she becomes a force to be reckoned with in the Ministry, making headlines for all the right reasons. But the press isn't done with her yet, and when old enemies try to drag her back into the scandal, Draco proves he's willing to fight for her-even when she isn't sure she deserves it. What started as a disaster might just be the best thing that ever happened to her. Because sometimes, the worst betrayals lead to the greatest love stories.

Hermione keeps running into Draco Malfoy. Will anything other than disaster come from these chance encounters? Originally published in fanfiction.net as Geeky-DMHG-Fan

Hermione felt the pounding in her ears again. She would see him for the first time since the Great Hall, gaunt and stricken at the Slytherin table with his mother clutching his arm. She hadn't meant to look for him. Not in the corridors, not beneath the white sheets of the fallen, not on the way to the Chamber of Secrets with Ron, but she was a stupid girl.

How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger. The monotony of Draco's daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing morning coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence. Hermione is living her life in fragments, separate pieces scattered about, and she can't find a way to step back and let the full picture form. Why is morning coffee with Draco Malfoy the only thing that makes sense anymore? *cover art created by @eternallyreadinggoodthings

Malfoy's handsome face was contoured into a condescending smirk. "No faith in that giant brain of yours, Granger?" She looked up at him defiantly.
