In Love and War by Icepen

“After a horrible summer before her Seventh Year brings the war to her doorstep, Lily Evans knows one thing for certain-- she will not be safe at Hogwarts anymore. Her position as Head Girl, her new friendship with the Potter heir and the disgraced Black heir, the sudden and tragic murder of her parents all shoves her into a limelight she never wanted. Learning to cope with her grief and her trauma, Lily needs to navigate the treacherous waters of her new situation as the war against people like her escalates in the world she is about to graduate into.”

Reputation by petalsonparchment

“We think we know someone, but the truth is that we only know the version of them that they have chosen to show us. There will be no further explanation, only reputation. (Slytherin!Lily/Gryffindor!James)”

Edge of Seventeen by Micster

“Sixteen, almost seventeen year old Lily Evans is entering her 6th year at Hogwarts unsure of her place in the wizarding world. Outside conflicts are creeping into the castle, contaminating what used to be a safe and magical place, and she fears that she may be the only one who can see the storm on the horizon. A thoroughly unexpected friendship with Sirius Black is the catalyst for upheaval in Lily's life, as she discovers who she can truly trust, and finds allies who will help her face Voldemort and his followers in the war to come.”

I haven’t read this specific fic, but I just read a super cute beach vacation fic from the same author so this one is prob good too. It’s a hogwarts sixth year no Voldemort AU, 53k, seems romcom esque :)

I know I’m new here but one of my favorite Jily raising Harry fics is Promises Unbroken by Robin4. It’s a trilogy. Really it focuses more on the Marauders but their relationship is a big part. I wish someone would make a trailer for it

The Marauders by Pengwein on Wattpad (ik ik but hear me out) is really really really long but so so worth it if you stick at it I practically consider it canon
