    Summary

    James "Bucky" Barnes is a homeless veteran with a dark past. He's accepted to a six-month shelter program meant to help veterans get back on their feet, and he has his work cut out for him. He needs to find a job, save up money, and hopefully get his own place, but he keeps getting sidetracked by his attraction to Steve Rogers, one of the therapists in the program.
    Steve is kind, smart, funny, and clearly in a relationship... but Bucky can't help feeling that Steve is interested in him too.
    More issues arise when Bucky's past deeds begin to impact his future and the things he wants aren't something he feels he deserves.
    Can he begin to heal himself so he can finally live?
    Or will he let the life he left behind destroy what he could be... and what he could have?
