Summary
Steve Rogers thought he lost the love of his life in 1945.
Long before Captain America, before the war, before the serum, Steve and Bucky built a quiet life together in a tiny Brooklyn apartment, keeping their love hidden in a world that would never accept it. They made promises they believed would last forever... until the war tore them apart.
Seventy years later, Steve comes face to face with the Winter Soldier, the assassin the world fears. Beneath the metal arm and fractured memories, Steve is certain the man he loves is still there. But Bucky Barnes remembers only fragments of the life they shared, and every recovered memory brings with it the weight of the terrible things HYDRA forced him to do.
As old promises collide with impossible choices, Steve refuses to give up on the one person who never gave up on him.
