Overview

When the subway stalls one rainy evening in New York City, two strangers find themselves sitting side by side—and a single conversation changes everything.

Eli, a law student carrying the weight of family expectations, has spent years trying to live up to a version of himself that feels like a cage. Marisol, a rising fashion designer and musician, has learned to embrace her truth in a world that often tells her she shouldn't.

Their chance encounter grows into something deeper: late-night coffees, music in the Village, whispered promises in the dark. But as their bond strengthens, so do the challenges. Eli's family pressures, fear of rejection, and the struggle to reconcile identity with ambition threaten to push them apart.

In a city that never sleeps—and never stops judging—can they choose love without losing themselves? Or will fear silence the song they've begun together?

Crossing Paths is a tender, empowering transgender romance about vulnerability, resilience, and the courage to choose happiness, even when the world says otherwise.
