Summary
Tony Stark and Adelaide Rousseau thrive on sharp wit, undeniable chemistry, and an unspoken rule—no attachments. She always slips away before morning, and he never asks her to stay. But between electric encounters and moments of unexpected intimacy, neither can ignore the pull. They tell themselves it’s just fun, just temporary. But after the events of Iron Man, ‘no strings’ won’t be an option anymore.

When Nina vanishes without a trace in 1944, Steve and Bucky Barnes launch a desperate search that ends in tragedy—Bucky's fall from a train and Steve's plunge into the ice.What they don't know is that Nina has been taken by HYDRA, forced to make an impossible choice that will transform her in ways she never imagined.
Decades later,three figures emerge from the shadows of the past:Captain America, a legendary hero out of time;the Winter Soldier,a ghost with fragments of memories he can't quite grasp; and Nina Rogers, carrying secrets that could change everything. As they're thrust into the modern world and eventually join the Avengers, the Rogers siblings and the man haunted by feelings he doesn't understand must navigate a landscape of lost time, buried trauma, and the enduring power of bonds that even HYDRA couldn't completely destroy. -

Summary
Aurora Potter refuses to live in anyone's shadow—not her twin brother's, not her overprotective parents', and definitely not the prophecy that nearly killed her at birth.
While James Potter struts through Hogwarts collecting admirers, Aurora blazes her own trail as Gryffindor's fearless Seeker and the Marauders' voice of reason. But being the "responsible" Potter twin becomes impossible when Sirius Black—leather jacket, rebellious grin, and all—makes her question everything she thought she wanted.
Caught between her family's desperate need to keep her safe and her own reckless heart, Aurora fights for independence while war shadows creep closer. Her impulsive streak leads to midnight escapes, Muggle concerts, and explosive confrontations that fracture friendships and test loyalties. When protective enchantments feel more like prison bars and "staying safe" means watching from the sidelines, Aurora must choose: obey the rules that bind her, or forge a path that could rewrite everything.
Because sometimes the girl who wasn't supposed to survive becomes exactly the one the wizarding world needs. -

Summary
1918.The war is over, but for Flora Green, the battle never truly ended. A nurse hardened by the trenches of France, she returns to Small Heath with nightmares in her head and steady hands that never shake when stitching bullet wounds—no questions asked.
When a brawl at The Garrison puts her face-to-face with Thomas Shelby, Flora makes a decision that changes everything. One calm confrontation with Arthur Shelby later, she's caught the attention of the most dangerous family in Birmingham. Tommy's proposition is simple: three pounds weekly to be their personal nurse. It's enough money to eventually escape Small Heath forever, but the price isn't measured in currency alone.
As she moves between worlds—blending modern medicine with her mother's Romani remedies—Flora finds herself drawn into Tommy's orbit. But in a neighborhood where respectability matters and Tommy's women come with their own histories, Flora must decide how close to the fire she's willing to stand.
She tells herself it's just business. A means to an end. But when Tommy looks at her with those ice-blue eyes that see too much, or when his fingers brush against her cheek in the back room of The Garrison, even Flora's steady hands begin to tremble. -

Summary
TFATWS, Bucky Barnes fails at dating.
Until he doesn't.
**
Bucky Barnes is getting used to normal—therapy sessions, amends lists, and a one-eyed stray cat that won't leave his fire escape. He's not looking for connection when he walks into the Brooklyn Animal Shelter, but Aurelia Montgomery isn't offering to fix him. She's an Air Force veteran with her own scars and a no-nonsense approach to trauma that matches his own.What starts as shared understanding between two damaged soldiers slowly becomes something neither expected: a chance at healing without having to pretend to be whole.

Summary
marvel au - bucky x personal assistant!reader
personal assistant rules: don’t crush on bucky barnes. definitely don’t misinterpret a flower delivery and spiral into silent heartbreak, and absolutely never ever get stuck alone with him in an elevator.
—
His mouth was merciless. His grip was unrelenting on your thighs, mouth working you over like a man possessed—
Bzzzzt.
A shrill, sudden buzz sounded from the elevator’s emergency panel, followed by a crackling voice.
“Hello? This is Tower Maintenance. We’re registering an emergency stop on lift three. Is there an issue?”
You froze. Every muscle in your body went rigid, as if someone had cracked open your spine and poured ice water down it. Dread spread like frost through your veins. Your heart thudded painfully in your throat, threatening to climb up and out entirely.
You could barely breathe. Could barely think.
This was it. This was how you died—legs spread, Bucky between them, and Tower Maintenance on the fucking line.

Summary
“Catfish?”
“I’m sorry?”
“Did you get catfished?”
Nope, he definitely heard her right. “I don’t know what that means.”
“When your online date pretends to be someone they’re not.”
“Yeah. Wait there’s a name for that?”
“Yeah, it’s a thing. There’s a TV show. And a documentary.”-
Bucky promises Sam he'll try to get out and meet more people. Online dating goes about as well as you'd expect.
