Life was never easy on Tyler Copeland. He'd struggled with a number of mental disorders for as long as he could remember, subject to bullying at school and neglect at home. But he always had his best friend Monica by his side. Now that they had finally graduated high school, Monica was due to travel interstate for university, when tragedy struck.  
"We were supposed to walk home together..."

Trying to turn the page after "the incident" that shook his perspective on life, Tyler finds love in the most unexpected places and realises perhaps he doesn't have to face everything alone. 

A journey of recovery, self-acceptance, trust and first love. Follow Tyler's personal mission to discover the truth, as he learns to accept fate and himself. 

This is an original work of fiction, not fanfiction.  It explores the butterfly effect, mental disorder, forms of abuse (sexual, physical, mental, emotional), LGBT romances, violence and drug use. This novel is an ongoing passion project for me, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated! I hope you enjoy.

Also, side note, there are a few mature scenes that contain sexual content, so if you aren't comfortable with that then you might have to skip a few chapters here and there. Otherwise, enjoy!

Life's Unexpected Turn by cbakaloff

When all hope is lost, what can one do? What happens when someone you love changes and becomes the person you most fear? Do you hide? Do you speak up? Do you fall in line? Do you give up, lose yourself, and hope for the inevitable? ~ Parker Avery is a creative teacher and artist striving to find happiness by starting over in a new city. Her past is filled with lies, abuse, betrayal, and torture; she's attempting to find herself again. Bailey Adams is a kind, artistic college student endeavoring to survive the abuse she endures daily from her girlfriend. She never expected her life to turn out this way, and she's slowly losing herself. ~ What happens when Parker and Bailey's paths cross? Will these two let their walls down enough to open up and trust someone after all that they have been through? Or will they push themselves further away, believing that a happy ending is never genuinely possible? If you desire answers to such questions, you'll have to read how this incredible story unfolds. _____________________________________________ Please note that the imagery used in my chapters are not 100% mine.

alone again / Finished BxB / by Juless_is_broke

Everyone would call them ill fated lovers. They started their story without realising the end is sooner then expected. 2 guys who found comfort in each other. They were soulmates, atleast i would like to call them that. Life isnt all about flowers and butterflys but they knew that from a young age. One of them swore to never love someone but the other wanted someone to understand them. I hope you enjoy the book :) it definitely got some triggering stuff in it and it also got a lgbtq+ relationship in it. I hope you enjoy reading it if u do read it ! Word count : 80,000+ words Status : Completed #3 lgbt #1 trauma #1 mentaldisorder #2 sadending

Say Something 【boyxboy】√Completed by larkin33

Jude doesn't talk. He can't, even when he wants to. They don't want to hear what he has to say, and they only use their words to hurt him. So why even try anymore? Starting at a new school seems like the perfect opportunity to blend into the background, but it isn't far enough away to start over. Some people just won't let him forget about his past. The teachers don't understand. He can't tell them why. He can't say anything at all. Ross understands. Ross writes to him. Slowly, he pulls Jude out of his shell, waiting for him to say something. ----- Say Something is a story of overcoming fear with the help of friendship and love. As someone who has struggled with anxiety, I tried to do something a little different with my writing style this time by including a lot of thoughts and feelings rather than a ton of description and detail. I'd like to add that it mentions things like sex and violence but I don't plan on going into any graphic detail in this story. There is also occasional cursing. I hope you give it a chance and leave feedback for me as I post new chapters over time. Thank you so much for checking it out! Started: January 15, 2015 Completed: July 28, 2017 **COMPLETED** **ILLUSTRATIONS are being released! The illustrations chapter is private, meaning only followers can view it. Why? This is a present for my followers to show my appreciation for their support! #566 in teen fiction 8/2/17 #2 in lgbt 7/18/20 wow!
