A Wounded Beginning by inspireme101
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: This is a story of great restoration. This is a story that is of how the Wizarding World is to recover after the horrendous reign of Lord Voldemort. This is a story of how the families torn apart, are reunited. This is a story of how Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley truly learn to laugh, love, grieve, hate, long, desire, feel, ache, trust, and most importantly live. This story contains various pairings throughout its chapters, but I try to keep it centered on Harry and Ginny. Second, the Language can heat up at quite sometimes, so be warned. Third, the suicide warning is there just as a notice, I do not describe it graphically in anyway, it is only mentioned/discussed briefly
