Summary
Dr. Sam Wilson loves his job. He takes care of animals all day (or night depending on when his shift at the emergency room is), offers advice and comfort to their families, and goes home to his beloved cat at the end of the day. He can do without any other excitement--he doesn't have a need for it.
Until a chance encounter after a long shift at the hospital flips his world upside down and all he can think is "my, my, what big teeth you have..."

Summary
'As soon as they moved into their new home back in April, Sam took over wedding planning like it was his second job. Bucky didn’t expect them to plan so quickly, but if there was one thing he learned about Sam over the years–once he set his mind to something, it was going to get done.
And if there was one thing they both learned over the past few years, time was a precious and fickle thing.'
Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes are planning for the big day they both have been looking forward to. With a few months left to finalize details, Bucky finds himself reflecting on what lead him to this moment in his life. Anything to distract him from having to buy a suit.

Summary
'After the Flagsmashers mission and the incident at the GRC, Bucky decided to stay in Brooklyn to stay with Steve instead of moving to Delacroix to be closer to Sam and his family. Sam was a bit disappointed, but of course he understood. Steve and Bucky had history and Sam saw that Bucky wanted to spend as much time with his best friend that he could–how much or how little time was left.
But one night, a little over a year ago, Sam got an unexpected phone call from Steve.'
When Sam started to travel between Delacroix and Brooklyn to be with Bucky and Steve, he didn't mean to develop feelings for the grumpy ex-assassin. But between seeing how Bucky cares for his loved ones as well as offering comfort for Sam when he needs it most, it's been impossible for him to deny his feelings anymore.
But when Steve's health takes a turn, how will the two be able to support not only their beloved friend but also each other?

Summary
In the aftermath of a traumatic incident that led him to drop out of university, Jayce Talis packs up everything he knows and moves to a small mountain town in the middle of nowhere to open a flower shop, eager for a fresh start on life.
What he doesn't expect, however, is for fate to send him careening back into the orbit of a familiar face from childhood: Viktor, a remarkable up-and-coming artist who not only works at the adjacent tattoo parlor, but lives directly next door.
But Viktor has ghosts of his own. Walls he'd rather remain hidden behind for the sake of those around him. Neither of them intended for the other to get close.
But love is funny like that.

Summary
“I won’t laugh.” Bucky straightens out both his back and his expression and scoots closer, knee colliding with Sam’s own. He keeps it there; it feels hot and solid, even through the kevlar. “C’mon, I promise. Just tell me.”
Sam turns it over in his head for a long moment. Swallows hard. Rubs his palms across his thighs.
“Okay,” he says, looking away. “Do you believe in ghosts, man?”
Bucky laughs, the asshole.
Sam has been haunted all his life. This is the first time he's ever thought of telling anyone about it.

The body is weak. The body is hungry and soft and human. He looks at himself in the mirror, the bones of his shoulders, his cheeks hollowed out from hunger, and he thinks, gentle, you didn’t deserve this.

Summary
Bucky had never been a selfish guy. Loyal to his cause, his business, his friend. He’d simpered and pranced around earlier this week, shaking hands with the right people, making the wrong people respect their authority by buying into the right markets, corrupting the right officials, and his business here was wrapped up by noon every day, and so in theory, his work here should be done.
And yet.
A set of steady eyes settles on him from the middle of the room.
The stage. Usually, he’d pick this time to scan the establishment, plan out several escape plans to mitigate the risks of potentially being caught by the authorities, make sure there's no correlation between this presence and any other mob movement he was involved with earlier this week.
But Bucky's not worried. He knows this pair of honey brown eyes.
This was why he lingered.
He won’t admit it, but Bucky’s developed a bit of a bad habit.
OR:
in which Mob Boss Bucky Barnes develops a bad habit in the form of stripper Sam Wilson and finally pays for it after months of trying to resist the urge to give in to the pretty boy in fishnet stockings.
