This was simply incredible. One of the best stories I've read in a long while. I was completely enthralled by the medical mystery which you presented so compellingly and I really bought Harry and Draco as Healers in this. The atmosphere, terminology, everything about their professional interactions with Lila was completely believable. I loved the way you brought out Harry's abuse and how it was getting worse because of the anniversary despite him not even being aware or it coming up. For years I would have severe depression onset during certain times of the year and I had to have it pointed out to me the correlation of the depression with the anniversaries of my daughter's death and my father' which were in Feb and March not the same year but irrelevant because it was an anniversary problem as you described.) So it's very real and also made the story really hit home and feel realistic. Also, I think Harry's abuse and PTSD would affect him and Draco would also have similar issues since they both had some extremely traumatic events that ( ... )

INCREDIBLE! It was like watching a movie. The story was exquisitely engaging .I especially liked this image: "When he leaned in to kiss Malfoy, the silence of the world deepened". This is one of those stories where the plot and characterization were so well done that the smut wasn't even needed. I must know who wrote this so that I can follow their work!!!

This had me hooked from start to finish, it drew me in to the point I'd have been happy to keep reading all day. Wonderful! (and I really want to know what happened next, but there, I'm never satisfied lol.)

Every detail.. just lovely.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I loved (and hated) writing it and I'm really glad it was absorbing for you. Thank you!

This was really intense and interesting! I like that Harry didn't ever address his own issues and I LOVED when Draco called him on it. That entire scene was great!

Harry and Draco have amazing chemistry in this!

Great story!

Thank you so much for your kind comment. I wanted Draco to be the tough but insightful one and I'm really glad it worked for you.
