Fic recs?

[rhysiana]

Over on Tumblr, I reblogged a post about how "enemies to lovers combined with marriage of convenience is the best mix of tropes" and someone asked for recs, so now I'm soliciting recs for this truly god-tier combination, any fandom, please leave a comment if you've got one!

Have you tried kink_finders?

[rhysiana]

I haven't, mostly because I was just trying to low-key solicit people's favorites. I don't have the energy right now to turn this into a major pan-fandom project, you know? (I'm trying to stay awake until a reasonable bedtime as I type...)

There has to be a Harry Potter/Severus Snape story out there that fits this trope... if I can find something, I'll let you know, but it's someplace to look.

You're the second person to suggest HP ships this would work for, but I don't read in that fandom, so I wouldn't have a clue where to even start. This was more a hope that people would name a few favorites rather than a true attempt to make an exhaustive list. Who could possibly?! That seems like it could take years! XD

Definitely let me know if you find some!

[goddess47]

Now that I've let my brain percolate, there's a "snarry fic finder" group... I'll ask them and see if they have any suggestions...

I love the Snarry community... here's a list. Most of these are classics in Snarry fic-dom... looks like they're mostly on AO3, so they're easy to find.

An Honourable Man by Cithara (AO3)

At the Heart of Things by empathic siren [archived by HPFandom_archivist] (AO3) https://archiveofourown.org/works/10050044
This is the gold standard of the genre IMHO.

[This is a perfect example of what you're looking for! I need to get some sleep, so I only read this one, but it's a good choice!]

The Betrothal Contract by Leela (AO3) I have this bookmarked but don't remember it at all.

Let your Heart Walk by winoniel (lost my link)

A Snowball's Chance by sheankelor for pekeleke (Ao3)

Halfway Home by suitesamba for sra_danvers (AO3)

With Eyes Wide Open by suitesamba (AO3) Another classic

Cornerstone by abstractconcept

Human All the Way Through by Lomonaaeren

Hope you enjoy!

[rhysiana]

Nice! Thank you for finding all these!

And BlackDragonQueen came up with this list. I don't really know any of them, esp since I didn't do a lot of reading on FFN, but I've added them to my own 'to be read' list... which keeps getting even longer...


Oh boy. Haven't read some of these in a long time and a LOT were lost with the FF.net Purge, but this is what I've got in my HP Fav Folder.

The Marriage Stone by Josephine Darcy probably does not need mentioning (FF.net)

Unintentional, Yet Unconditional by Veefa (FF.net)

Accidentally Bound by Laurenke1 (AO3)

Pledges by Amireal (FF.net) [Yes they do have to get married in this. I checked]

you want what by Alyce of the Togas (FF.net)

I have more but my computer is acting up and I am afraid it will crash any second. If you still need more, I can try and post on Sunday :) Hope this helps.
