*lol* An excellent beginning! Torturing Severus Snape is one of my favorite pasttimes as well. I can definitely see how there was no way this was going to be a one-shot. It looks like it was incredibly fun to write.

Nicely done! Normally I avoid the "bachelor auction" stories like the plague, but yours came highly recommended; I'm glad I decided to read it. It was very enjoyable with lovely touches of humor. As far as Ron, I wouldn't be sorry either....lol. I look forward to reading more of your stories.

Cheers 

Very fun story, thanks for writing it.

that is HILARIOUS! ronald has had that coming for a very long time!  great story, i love that you keep dumbledore meddling and hermione feminine, you did a fantastic job!  i can't wait to read more of your work!

oh no! what does that damn dumbledore have planned now?  hermione's folks were great, i imagine her to be such a perfect mix of them (i know how that goes, being an only child myself) and that was a really cute candle tradition, i might borrow that!  i can't believe there's only one more chapter!

i want this story to go on forever, i think this is my favorite version of snape yet!  there isn't even anything too intimate yet and it's soooo hott! 

this chapter was the biggest emotional roller coaster! but i'm so glad it worked out, that was a very sweet second date!

that woman has a plan! this story just keeps getting better, but what's gonna happen at the auction....???

That was absolutely hysterical and it goes without saying a pleasure to read.  It's been a long time since I've literally laughed out loud while reading a story.  Thanks so much for the entertainment!

wow, i can't catch my breath i'm laughing so hard! this is great! i love to finally see hermione using her bitchy feminine wiles against mr.severus grumpy-pants, he's had it coming a looooong time!  i can't wait to read the rest!

LUH-HUUUUVED IT!! Belted out laughing with the Molly "purchase"!!  The evening with the parents... MASTERCARD priceless!  Oh to be hanging from the light fixtures watching the bantering 'tween Stephan Granger and Sean...er, Septimus,  uh.....Sevenus....Damn, you know who I mean!!  Not too intence but got the point with a light and articulate touch. Brava! Brava!

Lovely end to a great tale. :)

Oh well done! I thought Hermione might have been the woman in the pink dress charmed to make Severus squirm. And I really can't bring myself to feel bad for Ron.

 I'd love an epilogue too because her father was a riot. And I think (as much as I love Remus) he needs a soft smack on the wrist for almost outting them when it was none of his business. Bad wolf!

Albus - always plotting. Can't wait to see what the fitting is for!

I'm quite proud that Severus was able to control his jealousy. But I am beginning to wonder about Hermione - a whole week spent with the man and she hasn't ravaged him yet? Girl's got more will power than most.  Good chapter!

Loved the story - felt only a slight twinge of pity for Ron - loved how you portrayed Hermione's father.

Well done 

Fantastic. I really enjoyed this whole story, thank you! Ron at the auction was priceless! I'll also put my vote in for more Stephen Granger. Please?

Great story. Very funny, lovely and hot *grins* I love it.

I wouldn't mind reading more about Stephen Granger... ;) He was too much fun to read.

Yes, that was definitely some snog! Wow!

Amazing!  I absolutely loved this fic.  I am sorry to see it end.  I totally loved how no one bid for Ron at the auction--super funny!  Well done.

 I’m sure Severus would love to teach you something.Where do we sign up? 

I can just imagine Snape all indignant with lack of response from Hermione. Nice set up with the plotting on both their ends. 

This fic was really enjoyable and fun. Thanks for sharing

I completely love this. And I even was sorry for Ron (well in fact I was hardly laughing) that no one except his mother would spent time with him. That was so funny. There's just a thing that surprises me a little : Severus was the last one and announced like the bachelor number twenty-eight. But at the end of the auction 31 women came to the stage. What happens ? And I'd like to apologize to you. When I reread my review of chapter 4 I found it a bit rude. I hope I didn't hurt you cause I love all your writings.

HAHAHA.

Ron so totally deserved that.

i love happy endings! <3 

Perhaps the best part of this pairing is how they can both grossly misinterpret each other's actions... You've portrayed that quite well.?I have to say briefly, I thought she'd marry him to get Albus off his back, but its so much more fun watching Snape squirm!Well done all 'round!-minuet99
