Velvet and Vengeance

Years after the war, Hermione Granger has become a celebrated magical fashion innovator-glamorous, guarded, and ruthlessly successful. But behind her designer gowns and press smiles lies a woman scorched by betrayal-particularly from the two men who once swore they'd never hurt her: Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.

When the Ministry forces her into an uneasy collaboration with Draco Malfoy-recently acquitted of war crimes thanks to a mysterious benefactor-they clash instantly. He's arrogant, sinfully charming, and knows far too many of her secrets. But Draco has his own scores to settle, and he sees Hermione as the perfect weapon to tear down the world that exiled him.

As revenge plots unravel, masked galas turn deadly, and ghosts from the past crawl out from the shadows, Hermione and Draco find themselves drawn together in a slow, smoldering burn neither can deny. But in a world where power wears couture and desire can be lethal, love might be the most dangerous magic of all.

More concept:

Think moody London evenings, opulent wizarding galas, and lingering stares across the ballroom. There's a steady build-up of forbidden attraction and unspoken history between Hermione and Draco, tangled with high-stakes sabotage, emotional scars, and intense longing.
