You were just a little girl when he left for the war. Now, you're the woman who'll undo him.
1943. James Buchanan Barnes, the guy from Brooklyn, went off to fight in a war that would change everything. You were only eight-his little shadow on the building steps, the one he swore to protect.
But war doesn't just break bones. It breaks time.
Now, in a post-blip world, Bucky receives a forgotten file marked with his sister's name. It leads him to a cryogenic facility sealed decades ago... and to you.
You're not the girl with scraped knees and shy smiles anymore. You're twenty-four, brilliant, beautiful-and wide awake in a world that moved on without you.
He helped shape the woman you became.
And now, he can't stop wanting you.
A slow-burn, emotionally loaded, high-tension romance set after The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. With flashbacks, guilt, longing, and heat. A lot of it.
Brooklyn Before the Bombs is for those who love the ache before the kiss... and the kiss that ruins you.

"Where are you going?"
"Home! God!"
"Home! It's Sunday"
"So? Your home sets itself on fire on Sundays?"
"Open your eyes"
"No! Slow down I don't wanna die today"
"You don't feel anything?"
"You know my answer"
"I also know you're a liar"
You and Bucky met each other when kids and history knows you both could not spend a day without arguing and fighting. Years later when you meet him again, under weird circumstances, you are forced to do something you might regret.
You have 15 days, if you don't find him a date, you be his date!
Will you be able to find a girl and save your job or will the worse thing which can happen to you will happen?
Is it really all that bad? Not sure about that but it's all really messed up.
