    Summary

    “There’s a body in the garden.”

    The words were spoken calmly, while Bucky kept his eyes locked onto the gangly form prostrate in the dirt outside. When he’d spotted it in a casual pass of the window, he’d experienced shock for all of half a second before he’d quickly transitioned into acceptance and wariness.

    He stepped back from the window as Steve rushed up, a damp blue dish towel in his hands. Steve’s eyes immediately narrowed in on the form that was face down by the tomato plants. It was a good sign that Bucky wasn’t hallucinating, and a bad sign in that it meant the corpse in the garden was real.

    Steve gave Bucky a look, the corners of his mouth sternly downturned.

    “I didn’t put it there,” Bucky said, just in case that was in question.

    ----------

    A mostly-dead Loki shows up face-planted in Bucky’s garden one day while Steve’s over for lunch. (Throws Infinity War/Endgame deaths and other parts of canon out the window.)

    Summary

    The house wasn't much to look at, just a standard suburban domicile with an open carport and not enough windows, sitting unassumingly on a quiet street somewhere in semi-rural America. But it had secrets and an agenda - not for the people who inhabit it, but for the ones who live next door.

    When Tate and her kids moved out to start their lives over, Carly and her kids moved in. The drug lord next door was long gone, replaced by a nightmare not much better - a divorced suburban housewife with entitlement issues and a yappy vicious dog that hates kids and men. When it bites Carly's young son and sets off a series of events that rapidly escalate from minor annoyance to federal offense, our beset-upon heroine finds herself with no choice but to enlist the aid of a legal professional.

    Meet Thomas Dowd, twice disbarred and desperately in need of clients to reestablish his all but defunct law practice. He has a lot to offer the furious woman sitting in his waiting room holding her whining child - but a good solid defense might not be one of them. And since Carly's ex husband left her with nothing but the house, she can't exactly pay for his services.

    Enter romance...or something that sort of resembles it.
