James 'Bucky' Barnes/OC AU ~~~ The year is 1973. All Dove Rogers wanted was a relaxing summer. Just one last hoorah before being thrust into adult life. Yet everything shifts when her new houseguest- and long-standing enemy- Bucky Barnes, arrives. In the thick of sun-kissed relaxation, the two of them are forced to face the awakening and burning desire growing between them. Enemies to Lovers/First Love This story is 18+. Specific tags in the first chapter. (I'll update them as I go)

In the spring of 2014, HYDRA-occupied SHIELD is in full swing, working underground to power the monster that is the Winter Soldier. Following in his shadow is their latest creation. Immortal, obedient and a murder machine, the child known simply as 'The Faceless Girl' cleans up any loose threads the Winter Soldier may have missed. She is a ghost story inside of a ghost story. With the fall of SHIELD, however, The Winter Soldier and The Faceless Girl run from HYDRA. They are now defectors of everything they know. It is simply James and Isabell on the road, now. James and Isabell, and the many, many ghosts that haunt them.

A humble nurse catches the eye of a tortured soldier. Helen Carter has never been one for being the center of attention. She, in fact, despises it. Instead, she prefers to work in the background where she can help those who cannot help themselves. Bucky Barnes never had a choice to fight for his country, but was instead made to. But when he meets a young nurse, he has a choice to make. Pursue a potential future or let her slip away. Love is won and love is lost in the tragedy of war. Part One: Captain America: The First Avenger (1-11) Part Two: Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014: 1-13) *I don't own Marvel. All credit goes to Stan Lee and the creators. I only own Helen.*
