First We Were Friends - A Bucky Barnes Novel

It started out as two free weeks in a Lake Tahoe cabin. All Bucky Barnes had to do was fix up a few things for the owner, an employee at the Avengers compound who inherited it from his parents. The owner even threw in free groceries for the duration.

Then he met Julia Devin, the daughter of the owners of the cabin next door. A woman on the spectrum with a special ability that saw her on contract with several police departments, Julia isolated herself after the end of her marriage to a San Francisco police detective by staying at the cabin. The divorce had devastated her after her ex-husband accused her of fraud, resulting in the cancelling of all her contracts.

After becoming friends, Bucky and Julia soon realized there might be more between them than just friendship. Bucky called in Sam for help in investigating the fraud accusations and even he quickly saw Julia for what she really was, a gentle soul worthy of love.

This original slow moving love story is set in the MCU universe after the Flag Smashers with Avengers characters (created by Marvel) and original characters created by the author.
