    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

    It’s been two and a half years since that day in DC that changed Steve and Bucky’s lives, filled with pain, heartbreak, horrible setbacks and despair. But there's also been growth, laughter, friendship, and love, as Bucky and Steve worked not just to rebuild the old house where they once lived, but also the bond they've always shared, thicker than blood. And Steve loves Bucky so much it hurts. He always has, and it’s a secret he’s long learned how to keep to himself. But Bucky has secrets of his own, quite a few of them; some out of fear, and some because there are things precious to him that he wants to keep safe. But they've always been at their best when standing side by side. As they come face to face with even more changes and challenges, they’ll have to have faith in both each other and themselves, and believe that the roots they have laid down are steady and strong. If they can do that, and after long last admit their own truths, only then will the garden of their lives have the chance to bloom.
    That’s if, and only if, they can overcome the first secret Bucky has kept. Because Bucky has finally remembered everything Steve once was to him. And if Steve can survive it, his life will never be the same.

    Summary

    Bucky Barnes just wants peace, but his past comes back to haunt him. When he's arrested in California during what was supposed to be his chance to live some of the life he missed, Sam Wilson calls in an attorney uniquely qualified to defend the former Winter Soldier.

    Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, attorney at law takes on James Buchanan Barnes as a client.

    What? Smut? Yes, I thought I'd step outside of my zone and try one, just this once. Plus, its fireworks season in the U.S., so that seemed appropriate for a big bang story. (You will have to wade through plot and a touch of angst before getting to the steamy parts).
