Lauryn has spent her entire life running.
From the Enclave.
From the past.
From a future she's not sure she'll ever have.
All she's ever wanted is something simple-
a home, a family, a love that lasts.
But the wasteland doesn't give people happy endings.
Then she meets him.
A ghoul. A bounty hunter. A man who insists he's not worth loving. But when he meets her...
He looks at her like he remembers what it felt like to be human.
Now, as danger closes in and old ghosts resurface, Lauryn is forced to face the one thing she's never been able to outrun...
Her heart.

Blood and Tide {Revised & Expanded Version}
She was a Coast Guard lieutenant with secrets in her bones. He was the ghost HYDRA never meant to unleash. Their meeting should have ended in blood. Instead, the tide pulled them toward each other-- and nothing would ever be the same. When Lieutenant Emerson "Emmie" McClare survives a catastrophic North Atlantic mission, she returns with a secret: a weaponized shard of ancient light-- and the memory of a man the world insists is a myth. James Buchanan Barnes. The Winter Soldier. But the truth is more complicated than any official report. He saved her life. She saved his soul. And neither of them walked away unscarred. As Emmie falls deeper into a hidden war--HYDRA remnants, cosmic artifacts, political conspiracies, and the unraveling of global stability--she's forced to choose between duty, survival, and the man whose touch can ruin or rebuild her. This story unfolds across an MCU alternate universe spanning The Avengers: Avengers Assemble through The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, reshaping events with original arcs, untold missions, and a Daredevil cameo that changes everything Emmie thought she knew about justice, power, and her own place in the light. Storms rise. Truths unravel. And the pull between two souls is a tide no one--not even they--can control.
