Years after Voldemort is destroyed, Hermione struggles to have the life she has always wanted. **Note: This story is on haitus. It isn't abandoned; I simply have no idea when it will be continued.

Reviews for Strega Letteraria
I've been waiting for you to update!I can't wait for Hermione and Severus to finally meet!But i'm afraid that Draco will be on the last part of his plan when that happens.Can't wait for the next chapter!
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you! Updates will be coming in a couple days!
Ooooh...the tension builds! Can't wait for the next installment; I love this fic.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you so much! It means a lot to me when readers like what I write.
Wow. So Harry is married, Hermione is pregnant with his child and Draco is out to get her? Life can't get much worse for her, can it?
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I know. Poor girl. Things can only get better though ... right?
Hmmmmmmm. Things aren't looking any better for Hermione. Looking forward to the next update.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I think this is a case of things cannot possibly get worse, I think. Or the only way to go is up?
Very excited about this latest development. I shall eagerly await your next chapter.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you! Next chapter will be upcoming by the end of the week.
Okay, so it's not just a dream that she cast a Killing Curse on Lucius, but he survived it? And his family found Lucius and brought him home? I wonder if Draco has sought help from other sources, or if Hermione's memory is faulty and she cast some other hex on Lucius. Lots of mysteries. More clues, please!
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Poor Hermione has gone through so much, hasn't she? Glad you're liking the mystery!
Definitely, looks as though things are going to get interesting for Hermione. Great work.Truly
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Definitely interesting.
Hmmm, very interesting. I very much enjoyed your story so far. Lots of questions, what is Draco up to? Will Lucius recover? Could the stranger watching Hermione possibly be Snape? What will happen with her child? Curiouser and curiouser, can't wait to read more...
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Not to worry – all those questions will be answered, and more! Glad you are liking it!
and the plot thickens again...Love Evil!Malfoys.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I love Evil!Malfoys too. They're so much fun to write.
The Stranger again... it has to be SS! But why? And now, to add to the pot, DM might suspect that HG is pregnant. Will he still exact his revenge?
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I wouldn't put anything past Draco. Let's just hope it doesn't end in tragedy!
I had been suffering withdrawel symptoms. Please don't do that to me again! As usual an excellent job, I know real life gets in the way of writing, but I am so interested in this story........ Update soon, if you can.Thanks!
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Withdrawal symptoms, you say? That is the best compliment. Thank you!
So now Draco's in the mix. Curiouser and curiouser! Another enjoyable chapter!
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Yes, Draco's in the mix ... he's so much fun to write.
Poverty seems to reign in your story. Bad times for many people (if not for Harry). Reading with interest.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I never thought of it that way, but I guess you're right. I kind of like to think of it, though, as real people having real life situations.
It's all so mysterious...and wonderful. Another great one!
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Good! 'Mysterious' was what I was hoping for. 'Wonderful' is a bonus. Thank you!
Wow. This is really heart-wrenching. Good ol' reliable Ginny. Thanks for making her a true friend. I wonder what The Stranger is going to think/do when he realizes that Hermoine's knocked-up; after all, he'll be able to put 2 and 2 together and get 4. I wonder if Harry will truly get away scott-free. Thanks for sharing this intriguing fic.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Yes, the Stranger is very smart, true. This will take a few turns before it's over!
oh girl you have me on pins and needles. Every chapter is even better than the last. Keep up the good work :)
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you! I look forward what you think as the story moves onward.
Great chapter. Poor Hermione, there is so much on her plate right now. I think she is dealing with the consequences of her actions very realistically. I like how your Hermione is tough where you know she isnt going to break down, but has her faults and insecurities. Im a bit nervous about the Stranger...
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you so much. Yes, I wanted to portray Hermione with more of a reality brush than I think she usually is. I'm glad you see her the way that I wanted to show her.
I was thinking that Snape was her stalker before, but now I worry it could be a Malfoy?? Will Hermione tell Harry of her pregnancy? I think she should-he has a right to know. Best wait till after the honeymoon though! Snicker. Thanks for the update
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
If I'm making you second-guess, then I'm doing my job correctly. *yay*
Wow, what a chapter! Having Harry's baby and him married to another - OUCH! Hermione sure does have a lot on her plate right now. I hope that there aren't dangers lurking on top of everything else. A ticked off Malfoy coming back to haunt her would probably send her right over the edge. I do hope her stalker is a friend and one who is up to saving her from everyone including herself. This is a great story. Thanks for writing it!
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you very much! And I'm glad you are enjoying all the twists and turns I've written in.
Great transitional chapter, I'm looking forward to the next chapter.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Glad you liked my insertion of the Malfoy clan. There's more to come soon!
The plot is a gem, and you're polishing it masterfully.No cutting anyone any slack and spot on dealing with complex vivid live situations.It might be a bit painful but this story is certainly a very, very wholesome read
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Thank you. If it is one thing I really wanted to do with this story was address some very real-life situations, instead of relying on fantasy. Your review was greatly appreciated.
Hah, pregnant! But this story has so many twists that solving one little hint only opens three other. E.g. where is Stranger? What did the Memory Potion do to her? What will be the significance of her killing Malfoy? Who disposed of his body? And first and foremost, why is the Stranger watching her? Etc. I hope the updates will flow smoothly so that we can enjoy slow revelation of these misteries.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I've got plenty to come so that updates should flow on a regular basis, even allowing for my occasional 'not knowing what is going to happen next' bouts of craziness.
Memory Potion! Instead of a Morning-After! This sounds like such bad news. This sounds suspiciously like a pregnant Hermione not having a clue where the baby came from. *shudders* Good thing there is another chapter out. *rushes to read that*
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
Well, it would have to be Harry's unless it were an immaculate conception. *lol* Birth control fails much more often than people realize, especially when one thinks what they are taking is birth control.
A very interesting chapter, especially with the dream as part of the backstory. I feel sorry for Hermione--the predicament she's in with not wanting to hurt Ginny. I can only wonder what will happen when and if Ginny finds out. Looking forward to more.
Response from notsosaintly (Author of Strega Letteraria)
I am planning another plot twist concerning this... ask me about that later. ;)
Pregnant and having nightmares? I hope she sues the apothecary. And that nightmare, could she have been under an imperio when she did that on the battlefield? And does she think Harry can't add and subtract well enough to figure it out? Plenty of questions--please, hurry along some answers. ~

Many of these answers will be forthcoming in future chapters! Thanks for the review!
