After Bucky Barnes walked away, Chloe thought the worst part would be losing him.
She was wrong.
Months after the man she loved disappeared without a goodbye, Chloe is left trying to rebuild a life from the wreckage he left behind. The Avengers Compound no longer feels like home. Every room holds a memory. Every quiet moment reminds her of the one person who chose to leave.
But while Chloe struggles to move forward, Bucky is fighting battles of his own.
Haunted by guilt, rage, and the belief that he made the right choice, Bucky convinces himself that distance is the only thing keeping Chloe safe. Until a deadly enemy from his past resurfaces-and suddenly the woman he sacrificed everything to protect is in more danger than ever.
When old ghosts return and long-buried secrets come to light, Chloe and Bucky are thrown back into each other's lives in the worst possible way. Forced to confront the pain, betrayal, and feelings neither of them have escaped, they'll discover that some bonds can't be broken.
Even when the world tries to tear them apart.
Even when darkness threatens to consume them.
And even when love might not be enough to save them.
In a story of heartbreak, survival, sacrifice, and second chances, Bucky Barnes must face the one battle he's spent his entire life running from:
The fight to come home.
