The Living Ghost || Bucky Barnes 2

The Living Ghost - Book Two

Jacqueline Rogers thought she'd left her ghosts buried in the ice. Seventy years after crashing into the Arctic Ocean, she awakens to a world that moved on without her - a world where everyone she loved is gone, including James "Bucky" Barnes, the love she lost when he fell from a train in 1943.

As the newest Avenger, Jackie throws herself into missions alongside her brother Steve, desperate to outrun memories of blue eyes and stolen kisses. She's reckless, haunted, treating each battle like penance for surviving when Bucky didn't. Steve watches helplessly as grief consumes his sister.

But death isn't always final. Whispers emerge of a ghost story-the Winter Soldier, a phantom assassin who strikes without warning and vanishes like smoke. Most dismiss it as legend, but when Jackie comes face-to-face with this specter, she discovers the impossible: familiar blue eyes staring back from behind a mask, a metal arm where flesh once was.

James Barnes didn't die that day. He became something else entirely - a living ghost, neither dead nor truly alive. Now Jackie must choose between the man she loved and the weapon he's become.
