Wrapped In Red

"Wrapped In Red" written by 'Kittenshift17' is a phenomenal Christmas Dramione tale.

A Christmas story is always quite merry, especially when it revolves around the 'Secret Santa Gift Exchange' theme. One of the sweetest stories I've read, this one must definitely be read at least once. Although it has been nearly twenty days since Christmas, I suppose you wouldn't be put off by bringing on the merriment again...Be prepared for 11 chapters of a well-written Christmas story!

REVIEW (Spoiler Alert): It started off the same way as many other Christmas tales do, and it went onto the typical 'mistletoe' trope, but we got ahold of a Hermione who genuinely loves to knit, not just for S.P.E.W but for pleasure. Of course, Draco would love to get her all the things she would've ever wanted that Christmas. And Hermione, despite not actively liking Draco, also couldn't resist giving him everything he could possibly want. The gifts were personal, and I loved it. I loved their mistletoe kisses, which were their guilty pleasure. And that snowball fight, it united the Gryffindors and Slytherins even if it was just for one morning... that is exactly why I love stories with these unity elements. I was so pleased to see a potential Theo/Harry relationship, which is quite rare in a Dramione fanfiction. Initially, Hermione thought that promise ring would be nothing but trouble but the last words of the 11th chapter proved that it was anything but:

"Because otherwise it's going to be really awkward having promised my heart to a woman who loathes me."

The author has written several other Dramione stories, and many of them are currently in-progress but they're all quite unique. You can definitely give them a read on fanfiction.net. Thank you to the author for having come up with this sweet, brilliant piece of work.
