Summary
The thing is, for a while Josh thinks Tyler knows. How could he not?
He’d only been on hormones less than a year when they met. He thought it was obvious.
Josh never meant to keep it from Tyler, not when they spend nearly every waking moment together.Series

Summary
“I can be civil, Joseph. I can put aside our differences if needed,” Josh continued, staring into Tyler's soul. “Can I expect you to do the same? To be able to talk to me like an adult? You’re my linemate. I need to know that you have my back and that each time we talk it won’t end in a shit-fest.”
Tyler Joseph knew this was his year to shine; he was one of the top players on his college hockey team, he finally found a place he fit in, and he was quite content with his routine of school, hockey, and friends. He could do no wrong. At least, that was until the new guy showed up and turned everything upside down.

Summary
He was twenty-two, for God’s sake. He was playing the sport he loved as a career; he should be grateful. There were teams of people dedicated to Tyler’s success and helping him put his best foot forward both on and off the ice, but still, he found himself miserable.
Everything had worked out. So why wasn't he happy?
--
Three years later, Tyler finds himself almost two thousand miles away from Josh. When an injury ruins everything he knows and flips his life upside down, he struggles to keep a sense of identity. It takes a group of unexpected individuals to help him rediscover his purpose.SEQUEL

Summary
Tyler reached a hand up. He wanted to touch the sky. He wanted to pull the stars down around him so he could prove that nothing was brighter than Josh’s smile.
The sky wasn’t as beautiful as Josh. The sky didn’t have the deep warmth of his eyes, it didn’t have the sound of his laughter, there were no wrinkles or smile lines. No smell of aftershave and generic deodorant. Tyler didn’t know why Josh was so obsessed with aliens, when he was the most interesting thing Tyler had ever seen.
Why go to heaven when there was somewhere better far from the sun?
