Summary: It’s Harry’s first time in New York City, and he is determined to have a good time. How Draco Malfoy figures into this remains to be seen.

Why Rec'd: Gosh, what do I say? There's no flash-bang here, no huge angst or wand fights or character death or even shouting. This is a simple story told with deep sophistication and care. The progression of their attraction and their relationship is exquisite -- UST as hot as sex. And the sex itself is GUH! This is paced just perfectly, each section making us care about them more and more, each one a little hotter (and sweeter) than the last. I adored every single moment of this story. Quite possibly my favorite from hd_tropes yet.

Sharing my hd_tropes gift!

I just realized I'm remiss in not pointing out the wonderful gift that was written for me at hd_tropes! I had limited computer and internet access at the time I read it and then forgot that I hadn't yet squeed publicly!

Summary: Harry is the new Head Auror. Surely, there should be more perks to the position than attending Ministry functions and fighting off inappropriate advances from subordinates. Oh well, at least his auror partner Draco is there to watch his back.

I love the way Harry doesn't want to want him but the potion eventually erodes even the not wanting to want. Does that make sense?? I felt simultaneously bad for Harry and glad Draco was there to, uh, take care of him. And I have two words for you: hallway sex! Excellent, hot, drool-on-yourself hallway sex!

Go read and give the Mystery Author some love!
