Author's Summary: After the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry discovers that Snape has made him a beneficiary of his will; it takes him a while to accept the Potions master's true gift to him.

Review:
Harry is forced to employ a curse breaker to retrieve the item Snape left him. A attractive curse breaker that reminds him very much of Snape.
characters, but the "surprise" secondary pairing more than made up for it.

Despite the heavy angst in some parts, Snape's Will is nowhere near as bleak as the author's warnings may have led people believe. This is really just a (complicated) love story between a young war hero and a dashing curse breaker with heavy baggage and a shady past.

This is a plot-heavy story and the author made sure that every word counted. I don't want to spoil the plot for anyone, but suffice to say, I made every single mistake Harry made, which was both frustrating and satisfying, once I got to the end. Slight OOC-ness in a couple of the. Highly recommended for original plot, wonderful storytelling, and a fantastic characterization of Snape.
