I'm a 40+ year old mother of 4 who works full-time, goes to school, and writes in what little spare time I have. Once upon a time I co-moderate the SS/HG Gift Exchange with Shiv5468 and Scattered Logic.
Reviews for Third Time's the Charm
I read this a long time ago on mugglenet and I still love it. God, the thought of a date with Percy the Prat...yech.
This is one of the best 'meet-cute' stories I've read in a while. Severus in the service industry - hilarious.
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
Oh, thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D
I read this of course in the exchange, but couldn’t resist a reread. My favorite line is “He said nothing more to her as they waited for their starters arrive, sitting there with the air of martyrdom that he'd clearly picked up from his mother.” Giggle! 
And even better yet, his kisses were as smooth as vintage Chateau Lafite.
Mmmmmmm! Lovely story!
Cute. I enjoyed the gentleness of this story. If I hadn't already been addicted to SSHG I would be now. Thank you.
great story, you have the pompous percy perfectly....
Very nice intro to the SS/HG pairing! I definitely want to read more. Very well done!
A little late maybe, but I really love this! It's funny and romantic as well!
Very nice. I see this is marked completed, and while it is good as is, the story could easlily be continued. (Hint). After all, Snape has yet to exact his revenge for Percy's sanctimonious rejection of his potion-making license, and as we all know, Hermione loves to take up a cause...
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
:) Yes, it could be continued rather easily. I just haven't the time right now. We'll see. When I finish my current projects I know that I have plenty to keep me occupied. Thanks!
Lovely. I enjoyed it greatly!
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
Thank you very much.
Oh Ginny that was perfect.
Would love to see a sequel or two on this story... Especially Mrs Draco getting the what for from her alleged best friend.

Squee! I'm there! Thanks!
Charming, and very smooth. I enjoyed it so much I stayed up late reading it!
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
Thank you! Oh, love a fic that keeps you from going to bed. ;)
This was great. I'm like Hermione in my feeling that it's such a pity Percy didn't finish his meal, the prat. I enjoyed the characterization.
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
LOL! Thanks, Sun. It was loads of fun to write. :D
Ohhh, that was lovely. I could punch Percy on his pompous, self important nose for what he did to Severus. Grrr. Bastard.
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
Thank you very much. Yeah, I think we'd all like to do something to Percy about now. ;)
A very enjoyable story. Percy was the perfect foil for Hermione and Snape.
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
Thank you so much. I'm glad that you thought so. :D
Nice story... wish there was a continuance. *hint, hint* It does have the potential for a few more chapters. :)
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
You aren't the first person to request that. Maybe one of these days. Thanks!
This was a wonderful jaunt. I loved the path it took. All too cute. Love, love, love it.
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
Thank you! :D
That was so cute and sweet... and I don't know if it's because I'm reading about Napoleon right now, but this line made me laugh so much - You self-righteous, pompous little man.
Response from GinnyW (Author of Third Time's the Charm)
*gigglesnort* Glad you liked it, hon. Thanks!

Loved it! I hope they think of some sneaky way to get back at Percy for being such a prick.

Great story. LOL, I had a feeling that Severus would be the owner, that was cool.
Thanks for sharing.
