Cause & Effect | Ominis Gaunt Love Story by SallowsKeeper

Stella lived in the shadow of her parent's legacy, but she was okay with that. There was no way she could live a more impressive life than Draco and Hermione Malfoy. She accepted it. They both saved the Wizarding World as teenagers. What she couldn't accept was her mother dying. Minister Hermione Malfoy had been cursed with Dark Magic that was slowly sucking the life out of her. Time was running out and the funeral preparations were already being made to Dad's discontent... But Mum didn't have any fight left in her after three years. At least that's what she thought. Stella stumbles upon some hidden archives her mother dug up that talked about an ancient relic that was known for curing Dark Magic. All she had to do was travel to 1898 and locate the last wizard who wrote about it in his journal. Easy? Sounds like it. What she didn't expect was to get involved with a neurodivergent sociopath who plans to use Stella for bait in order to capture the infamous Muggle killer: Jack the Ripper.... But it's either bend to his will or never have the artifact that could cure her mother. Follow Stella as she learns how to catch a killer, navigates the past, and tries not to notice how attractive her new boss is. Love and crime don't mix... Right? Genre: Cold case romance / Very spicy, mature scenes ahead.

Case of the Cintimani Stone: A Hammer Mystery by kilroyhiggins

From Azkaban to Master by VicMalfoy19

Voldemort returns. Harry is wrongly accused. All hell breaks loose... but it's already too late by the time the Order of the Phoenix realizes it. Well some minor details very few know (harry being one) is Voldemort's appearance. No one would think You-Know-Who would actually come back looking like himself. No one really does think Voldemort is back at all... Well until uncontrollable killings start to appear, disappearances rise once more and darkness swarms over every house, everyone shop, any place. No one walks alone. No one stays out past dark. Children are not found without their parents. Some elder children even return home to make sure nothing back happens to there families. And where's Harry during all of this? No one knows. No one except the Order and Ministry know where Harry Potter lies. One dangerous thing the Order and Ministry had failed to check... is if anything was left behind on Harry himself... well while he was still sane that is.

No More Walls (A Dramione Fanfic) by sarasb2324

Hermione Granger has kept walls up around her heart and brain almost all of her life. It is better than getting hurt, which she has experienced a few times. Why the hell would she bring down those walls again, for ANYONE? No point. Draco Malfoy is a similar case, though he's stuck in a marriage forced upon him. Something big must happen in order to change it all, and it won't be pretty... (This is also published on AO3 under my username sarab2324.)

Possessiveness and Other Such Oddities by mia_jade3

MOVED TO AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/27501742/chapters/67249750 Harry Potter exists in a world where Lord Voldemort (Now Minister Marvolo Peverell) has won, his father drinks the pain of his mother's murder away, his godfather has just gotten out of prison, and he's in Ravenclaw. He's determined to make the best of it all and with Hermione, Draco, and his friends in Ravenclaw, and with the exception of his prodigal talent in Defense, slips under the radar. Harry's happy with this life he's carved out for himself and is on the cusp of adulthood, but that is all threatened when the Minister takes a great interest in him. Just what does the Minister want with Harry?
