Review:
You know, I should just go ahead and have a Harry Potter Marriage/Bonding of Convenience week. I've never seen a fandom with so many MoC stories. (This is not a bad thing.)

In this particular iteration, Snape can't inherit Prince Manor unless he gets married within a month. Coincidentally enough, Harry has a little, er, *problem* that can only be cured by a massively complicated potion that only Severus is good enough to make. The solution? Marriage of course! If only Harry had bothered to ask if there was such a thing as divorce in the wizarding world...

Fair warning: the ending of this story seems a little rushed. Still, it's more than made up for by the way Moth gloriously wallows in all of the best MoC cliches. Codicil to the will! Hatred turning into love! Fabulously hot first time sex! Frankly, every fandom needs at least one (or ten) Marry for the Inheritance fic.

It's one of my favorite tropes, and I've gotten SO MANY great HP recs from this comm! Can't wait to read this one. :-)

Yeah, I have a type. (A fanfic type, that is:) IMO, there's no such thing as too many MoC fics -- in fact, the world needs more of them!

Thanks for the comment:)
