Severus Snape’s damned, near-naked body, complete with pubic hair. Severus Snape’s bloody awesome, near-naked body… If he caught her ogling said body, she would be in detention until she was a grandmother.LOL!  I'd be willing to risk detention until I was a grandmother just to see what Hermione sees.  What am I talking about... I already am a grandmother!  Oh well, just point me in the right direction and I'll be happy to start serving detention!I love this story from the git-go!Beth

i love this story! (or have i already said that?)  i love the way their relationship is growing.  thanks so much

What a beautiful romance! I'm enjoying the unusual courtship you've created. I am so glad you listened to your friends and posted this story. It's great. 10 stars to you!

Being an enthusiastic book-lover myself, I very much enjoyed that they are using their reading material to get closer to one another. This story feels like the roller coaster, slowly approaching the summit. I keep holding my breath in anticipation of the plunge! LOL

I'm so enjoying this story, I love the interactions between the two. Can't wait for the next chapter!

really enjoying this story - keep up the great work!

This is so cool and sexy and neat!  Don't keep us to long in suspense

They're so adorable with their flirting and light banter. I find myself really enjoying this story and anxious to read the next part.

Ok, I think I gained enough coherency to leave a review... This has to be one of the most original stories ever!never have I seen snape strip and blow a kiss in the same story ever! In fact, take away the crackfic and I think your the first person ever to have him do that! Not to mention the naked stretches... Did I tell u that I now worship u? Lol I just got the email at six in the morning and I had to read it so sorry if my review aint very coherent. Love ya babe and keep up the fabs work!!!

Ooohhh!!! How I am loving this! It's so bautifully done and I adore the soft, gentle way they're falling in love. They are falling in love, right???? Keep it up!!

oh how i love this story, i love how the relationship between Severus and Hermione is developing ... I look forwrard with great anticipation to the next chapter ... a wonderful story!

Awww, that is so touching. Adorable! :)

Sweet! :)

Very amusing so far. I do so enjoy post-DH stories set at Hogwarts.

Thank you for another great update, it was as brilliant as the rest of the story:-)) I just love the pase of the developement of a relationship between Severus and Hermione. I must also compliment you on being able to present them as two equals attracted to each other, despite their age-difference (which hardly matter:-)) and that she is still a student (but not for long:-)). Not many manage to present them as quales, even long time after Hermione has left Hogwarths, many tends to make Severus superior to Hermione and/or in charge of the relationship.

Oh, this is great... I love the UST and the secretiveness they have to maintain.

I love this story.  I have discovered that I really enjoy the slow progress of Victorian romances, where the most one can do in public is a hidden touch or brush of the hands.  I hope you draw this out.  Going too quickly might spoil it.

Oh, he is a drama queen.  I really loved this.  The way they're dancing around each other is so perfectly done.  The little hand holdings under the table and sly glances are all so sweetly perfect.   It's almost better than them being totally out in the open!

This is very sweet!
Can't wait for the next!
xo.

This is very sweet!
Can't wait for the next!

great chapter, i can't wait to read more!  i loved the end of the chapter "my name is severus" looking forward to more soon.

Yet dawn brings a finer display.Oh hell yes, I agree. Nomnom. Four little words... ai! This is such a lovely gradual progression! Kudos!

This story is getting better with every chapter! The last line was my favorite. Being on a first name basis is a pretty big step for them. Can't wait to read the next chapter!

Good job. You left me drooling and panting for more. :)

It was nice to see a playful side to the normally dour professor. :)
