    Summary

    He could ask Steve for help. Steve used to cut all their hair during the war, the only one with the patience, eye, and moral decency not to sneak in a shaved eyebrow while he worked.

    He doesn’t. This is for Steve as much as it is for him.

    Summary

    Steve Rogers would be the first to tell you he's had it rougher than some but better than most. His job at the coffee shop lets him do his art, work with his best friend, take care of his ma, and ogle the muscular mechanics at the local auto-body shop. His health and his love life could be better, but he's very aware of how lucky he is to have it this good. Oh, and live in Brooklyn. Simple life, simple pleasures.

    Is it really so much to ask to be able to get across the street in one piece? Apparently.

    Before he knows it, Steve finds himself on a collision course with every hotrod coming out of the lot, with the quiet but hunkalicious new hire at the body shop, and with... well, romance.

    Summary

    Bucky Barnes had it all—grease under his fingernails, dog fur behind the cushions of his couch, a cozy place to call his own. The house, the truck, the dogs, the works. A ride-or-die, close-knit community. A patch of land he could wander. A mountain view to inspire him. After six tours of duty and nine months in captivity, Bucky knew how bad things could get, so he didn't dare ask for anything else. Especially not someone to hold.

    Until a tall, blond super-soldier crash-landed into his quiet life and threatened to make all his dreams come true.

    For now.
