    Summary

    For a man on a mission, life can seem fleeting. Years pass in a flash. Huge moments come up like massive waves and leave just as abruptly. Bucky learned to flow with the chaos and quickness of life, or else he’d drift in the void. Flowing is an effective tool. But his only true anchor to this world has been Steve.
    For a self-proclaimed hero, death can seem constant. It feels as if more are killed in Steve's protection than saved. He had learned to accept that he can’t save them all, or else he’d drown in the guilt. Acceptance is a reliable friend. But his only true friend has always been Bucky.

    Summary

    Bucky Barnes is an Omega who lives an extremely sheltered life thanks to his religious upbringing. At the age of nineteen he still finds himself under his father's thumb and yearns for the smallest semblance of freedom. The only bit of rebellion he gets is listening to his favorite band, The Avengers and fawning over their lead singer, Steve Rogers.

    After a chance of fate, or perhaps, divine intervention, Bucky's prayers are answered when he wins a contest, a chance to meet his rock and roll crush and change his life.

    Summary

    The biggest lies are usually the ones we tell ourselves, and Steve has been telling lots of lies, especially lately. That in spite of how he can’t stop chewing his fingernails bloody, the never ending nightmares chasing him out of bed, and the way merely seeing ice sends him into a panic, he’s fine.

    But when his latest mission with The Avengers goes horribly wrong, Steve can no longer keep lying, not even to himself.

    Diagnosed with PTSD and placed on medical leave, initially Steve is resentful, stubbornly refusing the idea there’s anything that can make it better. Until Sam suggests a Service Dog, and introduces him to James Buchanan Barnes, a fellow vet and trainer who swears one of his dogs can help, if only Steve can summon enough bravery to take a leap of faith and accept a four-legged companion in his life.

    What follows is a long and winding journey of fear, doubt and self-recrimination. But also hope, acceptance and redefining what it means to be a hero, as Steve finally faces the issues that have been haunting him his entire life.

    There is also a lot of fur, conversations with dogs, and a cross-country road trip, as Steve rebuilds his life and maybe, just maybe, falls in love along the way.

    Summary

    “Captain America in a vampire bar,” says a deep voice, thick and dark with amusement. “What would the people say?”

    Bucky’s got to give it to the guy—he’s got balls. Or he’s a fucking idiot.

    He turns his head, teeth bared in a smile feral enough to match any of the fanged fuckers in here, vitriol on the tip of his tongue, and—

    Gold hair, blazing blue eyes, and a crooked smile that lashes out into the space between them, sinking a red-hot hook straight between Bucky’s ribs.

    His retort withers on his tongue. The vampire cocks his head, and Bucky’s heart gives a painful thump.

    “Fuck,” he says intelligently.
