Description
Being magically tethered to your childhood nemesis wasn't covered in the Ministry's consultant handbook. Ten years after the Battle of Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy has carefully reconstructed his life: a respectable Ministry position, a lovely wife and son, and an office organized to within an inch of its life. He's even learned to tolerate working with Harry Potter-as long as they maintain a professional distance of at least twenty feet. But when a raid on a manor harboring Dark artifacts goes wrong, that distance becomes impossible to maintain. Literally. A mysterious binding curse forces them to remain within twenty feet of each other or face increasingly painful magical consequences. Worse, the curse creates an empathic link, meaning Draco must not only share living space with Potter's abysmal tea-making habits and complete lack of hair care regimen, but also feel his most intense emotions. As they struggle to maintain their separate lives while magically bound together, old prejudices begin to unravel. Potter's hero complex looks different up close, and Draco's carefully maintained reformation might be more surface than substance. When a resurgent Dark wizard cell threatens the Ministry, they must learn to work together-or risk losing everything they've built since the war. Sometimes understanding comes from the last person you'd choose to be bound to.
