At fifteen years old, Sloane Smith lost everything. The Battle of New York took her parents, her home, and the life she thought she'd have. Left with nowhere to go, she was found by the last person she ever expected-Steve Rogers. Four years later, she's no longer Sloane Smith. She's Sloane Rogers. The Avengers Tower is the closest thing she's ever had to a home, even if Steve feels more like an overprotective older brother than a father. She's learned how to survive, how to hide her scars, and how to pretend the nightmares don't still follow her. Then James Buchanan Barnes comes home. He barely acknowledges her. When he does, it's with clipped words, cold stares, and an attitude that gets under her skin. To Sloane, James Buchanan Barnes is the most infuriating man she's ever met. To Bucky, Sloane Rogers is a complication he never asked for-and one he wants nothing to do with. The feeling is mutual. Until one mission leaves Sloane in the hands of the enemy... ...and Bucky is forced to confront the one thing he's been running from all along. Because some people don't realize what they have... until it's gone.
