Rose Bridges by bibliot3ca

Romero, struggling to push through the day to day life of his world: court bills, money, family, money, the past, money, his own mind, and more money. Carmen has been pushing to become a lawyer her whole life; wanting to be taken seriously in a field dominated by men is not easy though, and if putting up a front to be taken seriously is what it takes, then so be it. A certain struggle comes with feeling as though you have to act a certain way versus who you really are. Except a sensitive heart of gold can't be hidden behind a brick wall forever. Two people, walking across the same tight trope on opposite ends, trying not to fall. One going against the law and one trying to be the law. One born with a silver spoon and one suffering from the abrasions of life. Both trying to survive in worlds not made for them. Except everything in this world overlaps; bridges connecting different lives and stories. It's just a matter of realizing you're not too different from the person on the other side of that bridge.

Un Poco Loco (For You) by Unfortunatelyaspyn

A few years ago in San Fransokyo, a new boarding school for gifted kids called William L. Lauder prep arrived. It became very popular and prestigious rather quickly and teens all around the world were desperate to get in. Hiro Hamada had heard of this school, but luckily for him he didn't need to go to school. He didn't want to go to school anymore either, he'd much rather sit in his room all day with Baymax, working on a new invention. Miguel Rivera had also heard of this school but he, on the other hand, was vying to get in. Unfortunately, his chances were slim. He was just a poor kid from Mexico, after all, how would he ever get in? So both boys are equally surprised when they both get scholarships to the school fully paid. They end up as roommates and start off on bad terms. Eventually though, they put their differences aside when they realize that the school may not be what it seems and learn to like each other. In more ways than one.

Dance Til You Bleed (MxM) by cherry_booker

***TRANSLATIONS IN COMMENTS OF PARAGRAPH OR IN TEXT*** Ariel Jiménez is the best dancer in his class. His teachers always compliment him, and his parents always praise him. So, when his school mentions a famous dancer will be dancing with one of their students, he does his best to be chosen. But the man that arrives, also happens to be the man he cussed out, three days prior. The smirk on the man's face says it all. Nathaniel Azevedo is going to be one pain in the ass. ~ Ariel Jiménez is in the middle of 9 siblings. He lives on a farm and his family gets by with just enough. His dream of being a dancer seemed like it would never happen until a scout arrived at his local dance class. She was amazed by his abilities and offered for him to go to a dance academy in the city. Offering to pay for everything. To which he happily accepted. His family was incredibly happy and extremely supportive. Some looked down on him for his background, but he proved himself. He's always struggled for stability and attention. Dance was the only thing he excelled at, the one thing he felt unique in. Nathaniel Azevedo had everything given to him. When he told his mother of his love for dance, she encouraged him to be the best. Working him for hours upon hours with a private teacher until he became the most well-known dancer in the dance world. Even taking modeling jobs. Soon dancing no longer felt like a fun activity to pursue. It felt like a duty and always a competition. He took the opportunity to work at an academy to teach a few students, hoping maybe, he can get that dancing spark back. Cover by @raspberryminnie #6 → rivalstolovers

All Of You: A Romantic Comedy [COMPLETED] by alexbenkast

When Latin singer Juan Peláez hires hyperrealism artist Lin Solavida to paint a mural in his home, he doesn't know what he's in for. Word around town is that Lin is a forty-something guy with a Quasimodo-like hunchback. But no one has ever actually seen the man. Their contract comes with specific instructions: Juan isn't allowed to enter the room while the artist is working in his house for the next two months. Straightforward. Doable. Until his accidental run-in with the mysterious artist. Here's the problem. A: SHE is gorgeous, witty, and crazy talented. And B: She has walls so high no one can climb them. Finding ways to entice Lina into wanting to spend time with him shouldn't be too hard for a charming, creative guy like him, right? Wrong. Every attempt backfires. He either upsets her, runs her over, or, you know, epically embarrasses himself in front of her. But every miserable failure also makes her laugh and teaches him something new about Lina. ----------------------------- Tropes: forced proximity, lone (she-)wolf, meet cute This is a feel-good rom-com that came to me after watching Disney's Encanto. 😅 Just that "We Don't Talk About Bruno" turned into "We Don't Talk About Lina."
