BOOK #3 "Only twenty minutes to sleep, but you dream of some epiphany." Ten years. That's how long it's been since Eva's world collapsed. Since James and Lily were murdered. Since Harry was taken away from her. Since so many of her friends perished in the name of freedom. Since the love of her life betrayed them all...

BOOK #2 Epoch: a particular period of time in history or a person's life - A few months have passed since the Class of 1978 graduated from Hogwarts. It isn't exactly the life Eva always wanted. Instead of playing for the Holyhead Harpies or teaching at Hogwarts, she's stuck behind a desk day after day, filing paperwork for rather unpleasant Ministry of Magic officials. The war against Voldemort hangs over her head like a cloud, dark and foreboding. Her friends struggle to keep afloat as they are sent in all directions to end the madness in their world. To make matters worse, Bellatrix Lestrange has made it her personal mission to kill Eva herself. All Eva wants to do is marry Sirius and grow old with her friends, but trouble has a knack for finding the Marauders. - Rankings: 3 in #lily 14 in #siriusblack 1 in #wormtail

BOOK #1 Serendipity (n) finding something good without looking for it - Marauders Era Fanfiction - Eva Taylor. Sixth year. First female keeper for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Paints to escape. Number one Beatles fan in all of Hogwarts. Can't walk down the stairs without tripping. Proud beyond belief of her Muggle-Born status. Unknowingly the subject of Sirius Black's affections. - He leaned onto the counter and smirked, letting a bit of hair fall into his face and seductively watching her. "You think I have the charm to pull something like that off?" She blushed unintentionally. "I- I think you could charm the socks off of Voldemort himself if you tried." "Maybe that's how we win the war," he said jokingly. "We've been going about it all wrong. Dumbledore can just send me. I'll walk up to Voldemort's door, wink at him, and my smooth charisma and devastatingly good looks will have him dead on the ground by dawn." - 1st Place winner of the 1989 Harry Potter Awards for the Marauders Era! - Rankings: 12 in #maraudersfanfiction 2 in #siriusblack 4 in #themarauders 1 in #marauders 13 in #harrypotter 1 in #peterpettigrew 2 in #remus 1 in #padfoot 1 in #minervamcgonagall 1 in #jkrowling
