Summary
A Tale of Friendship and, eventually, Love in the Skies over War-Torn Europe
When the United States began integrating women into military units before and, especially, after Pearl Harbor--and not just confining them to important but still auxiliary units--it was decided that heavy bomber squadrons were a good place to relegate some of these pioneering women. There was an early, misguided belief that American heavy bombers were 'invincible,' though this would quickly be proven wrong, especially for the 100th Bomb Group, which would come to be known as the "Bloody Hundredth."
Mildred Brady, better known to her friends as "Millie," was one of ten women assigned to the 100th and its 35 original crews when it flew from America to England in June 1943. Serving at Thorpe Abbots from the beginning until Black Week, she would survive nineteen missions before being shot down. From combating prejudice as she did her duty as a gunner and engineer to fighting to survive as a POW, she would find strength in friendship and a level of tenacity she did not know she possessed.

Summary
An assassin's mark on Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier, forces him to unearth not only his own past but the one of the woman he claimed to hate.
***
After the events that lead the Avengers to fall apart, Steve Rogers entrusts his friend Bucky Barnes to the Crown Prince of Wakanda. But after only a few days, an assassin is caught in Wakanda. Her codename - Nemesis. Her mission - to kill the Winter Soldier.
In their search for answers, Steve and Bucky find a link to someone from their past, someone they never thought they would hear of again - Evelyn Rogers, Steve's twin sister. The pair discover that she died in a fire in the 60s. The only thing that was retrieved from the ashes was a strongbox containing several letters and a carefully wrapped package for one James Buchanan Barnes.
Evelyn's final legacy is her diary, which Bucky finds strange. She would never have left him anything personal since they hated each other. And how could she possibly have known he was still alive?
Pushed on by Steve, Bucky reads Evelyn's final words, and page by page, his memories return. But as he nears the end of the diary, it becomes clear that some memories should have remained lost. -

Summary
Virginia, 1944
Only when his tolerance collided with fatigue was Mackey as intimidating as his older brother. “Jackie, I’m not going back to Richmond."
Jackie didn’t meet Mackey's glare. He continued to count his cut of the cash but glanced to Brian. The twenty one year old would never complain about an opportunity to take Tina Marie out on the town, but after a quick read of Brian, who always withheld his opinion unless asked, Jackie saw he was alone. “The law can't win this one."
“That’s what the Mountain Shadow’s good for, if you’d find some patience.”
“Yeah, well, he’s just one guy,” he sighed. “For every dead cop you get three new ones signing up to die.”
“Then why the hell are we bothering anymore?”
“It won't stop at the whiskey,” Jackie reminded. “They’ll keep coming until we are no more, I know you believe it.”
Mackey nodded. It remained true, every passing year marked the quickening end to an era with Jackie protecting their cabin and legacy the only way he understood how. He watched Brian stuff his own earnings into a leather satchel, their ward unaware of how his heart broke further with a profound pity for him; a pity Jackie refused to acknowledge.
