It's always fun to see what exciting projects people come up with. We discovered this great Tumblr page that held a competition for the best Ron/Hermione fanfics! As a result we get some fantastic Harry Potter Fan Fiction recommendations!
This specific blog focused on just Ron/Hermione stories. They seem to be toying with the idea of doing it again. Yes, please!!
Winners: "Round up of the Awards"
Nominations: "Vote for your favorite..." (with links!)
Now, I'd love to find the same thing for Rose & Scorpius! Just throwing the idea out there! ;)

Solace by rhrshipper23/writerwannabe
Title: Solace
Author: rhrshipper23/writerwannabe
Rated: M
Chapters: 1
Word Count: 3,869
Status: Complete
(Art by Catching-Smoke. Not original cover art, we thought this fit a little more!)
Characters: Ron W./Hermione G.
Genre: Hurt/Comfort
Type: One Shot
Time Period: Post War
Time Period: Post War
Summary:
After a mission goes wrong, Ron seeks solace in his family.
Review:
This is rated M for sexual content, but it really strengthened my appreciation for the love these two have for each other! It's categorized as hurt/comfort and that's exactly what it is. A very touching story of a time when Ron was so upset after a disturbing auror mission and all he needs is to see his 7 month old baby and find comfort in his wife.
As a bit of a warning Ron is a little rough in bed, but his raging emotions and remorse after just makes the story/characterization so believable! I love Ron/Hermione stories and this is a must read...as long as you're okay with the descriptive sex scene!

The Rise and Fall of the Stag and the Doe by SiriusUntiltheVeryEnd
Author: SiriusUntiltheVeryEnd
Rated: M
Chapters: 95+
Word Count: 379,212+
Status: Work in Progress
Characters: James P./Lily Evans P.
Genre: Romance/Humor
Type: Multiple Chapter
Time period: Marauders Era
Summary:
Lily didn't just happen to fall in love with James. It
wasn't an accident, but a long drawn out process that grew out of the
relationships of the people around them. And when it came down to it, even Lily
and James couldn't fight fate.
Review:
This has been the first James/Lily story I’ve read. I’ve always stayed away because I don’t
always like sad stories and I know how things end for this couple, and it’s
very tragic. However, this story has really
sucked me in and helped me see James, Lily, and all the Marauders in a new way!
This story has done a fantastic job showing the balance of
James Potter’s character of being a carefree prankster who can be quite arrogant
and yet a hopeless romantic when it comes to Lily. And to see Lily’s character grow in depth and
I learned to really love her and understand her even more.
As a work in progress, the story has not gotten to the
ending I know is coming so I can’t say yet how that was handled. I am starting to wish it would become an AU
story so these characters I have come to love could be around to see their son
Harry off to school and beyond. I’m
still holding out hope, but I’m not holding my breath. I’ll update here later as the story
progresses, but so far I have really enjoyed this story and have fallen in love
with the Marauders Era.

Coming Into Winter by Fire The Canon
Title: Coming Into Winter
Author: Fire The Canon
Rated: T
Chapters: 100+
Word Count: 187,103+
Status: Complete
Characters: Ron W./Hermione G.
Genre: Romance/Family
Type: One-shot Collection
Time period: Hogwarts
& Next Gen
Summary:
One-shots for Fanfic100 on LJ posted.
Review:
I adore this story and all the various one shots about the little
family of Ron & Hermione!
Of all the collections of one-shots of the Ron &
Hermione’s family I really love this one because this author’s head cannon is
closely in line with mine. There are a
few differences, but it’s closer than most other stories. This story has a wide variety of situations, ages
of the kids, and character combinations.
There are great little moments of when Rosie and Hugo were little, Ron’s
sweet interaction with his kids, Ron and Hermione’s ever growing love for each
other, and how the two siblings support and love each other.
If there is one thing I love more than a good Ron/Hermione
story, it’s a Romione family story with some Rose/Scorpius! There have also been a few that have
Scorpius, which I also love!
This story is a work in progress, so I always look forward
to the new chapters!

Updated 1/12/2014 - This story is now complete. Such a fantastic story!!

One Big Happy Weasley Family by Keeptheotherone
Title: One Big Happy Weasley Family
Author: keeptheotherone
Rated: K+
Status: Work in Progress
Summary:
A collection of unrelated drabbles and one-shots featuring various combinations of Weasley boys (and yes, occasionally Harry). Rating and genre will fluctuate. No slash.
Review:
One Big Happy Weasley Family is a collection of one-shots featuring all the Weasley boys. This is a fairly new story and still a work in progress, but I had to review this story now because I just keep thinking and laughing about the awesome one-shot that is Chapter 2, Ron’s Got Good Taste!
One of the main things I love about this story so far is that it is featuring all the boys in the family, not just the ones we typically focus on in the books or most Fanfiction stories. For example, my favorite chapter 2 is a hilariously awkward moment between Hermione and Bill that happens during 4th year when all the Weasley boys come home for the Quidditch World Cup. We don’t usually get to see much of what happened during this time with the other brothers, but there were probably moments just like this when the house was bursting with people!

Probably my next favorite is Chapter 3 when we see Bill come
to Percy’s office to discover his failing attempt of wooing Audrey. Very
funny! I really enjoy Keeptheotherone’s
version of Bill. I look forward to more chapters
and to see more one-shots with all the Weasley boys!

Runaway Fox by kirikarin
Title: Runaway Fox
Author: kirikarin
Rated: T
Chapters: 23
Word Count: 85,056
Status: Complete
Characters: Ron W./Hermione G.
Genre: Drama/Romance
Type: AU (Alternate Universe)
Summary:
Ron Weasley is one of the most successful
businessmen in the world. He left home and England to make his fortune in the
U.S., and he stopped communicating with his family and friends for five years.
Will he ever come home again? Pre OotP
Review:
This was my first AU story I
ever read and I fell in love with it! It's one of those stories that I would
think about long after I finished reading it.
I was amazed by the detail this author put into this story
and that it took those characters I loved and helped me see a different side of
them. This intrigued me to start reading
other AU stories, and I’m glad I did because I have read some other truly amazing
stories!
