Hi, I’m Brenna!

I am a chronically creative hopeless romantic with an academic streak, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my library. You probably know me through one of my three pen names—Chloe Parker, Eden Audley, or London Lennox—but this is the girl behind the pens.

I created all these pen names because 1) I’m a drama queen and 2) I wanted to do three very different things. My first pen (Chloe) was an accident, an attempt to. keep my personal life separate from the alien smut I was dying to write…thank you, TikTok, for making that impossible when you showed my profile to everyone in my contact list. Ever wondered what it’s like to have your acquaintances ask about your werewolf porn? I don’t recommend it!

What you’ll find across all three of my pen names is wicked worldbuilding, hellraising heroines, and serious (and I mean SERIOUS) smut. I think pleasure, desire, and femme-centered stories are still treated like guilty secrets, and I’m not interested in writing anything that asks you to apologize for what you like. We do not yuck anyone’s yum here. We only fee sexy, comforted, safe, and entertained.

I’m also a professional historian, which means I spend an unreasonable amount of time thinking about systems: how power works, how stories get shaped, how the past haunts the present, and how people carve out meaning inside structures that weren’t built for them. That background sneaks into my fiction whether I intend it to or not…especially in the worldbuilding and the social awareness. It also makes me write about war a lot, since I did my Master’s thesis on World War I. As my friends often say, “bitch loves a war.”

When I’m not writing, I’m usually making something adjacent to the books. I create digital art, design tarot and oracle decks, and build reference systems for my worlds because I like things that feel intentional and interconnected. I like knowing where things belong. The Starcrossed Library exists because I needed one place where all of that could live together.

I’m not interested in being everywhere online or chasing whatever platform is loudest this week. I care about making good work on a regular schedule and sharing it with people who actually want it. If you’re here, it’s probably because a story stuck with you and you went looking for more—and that’s my favorite way to be found.

If you like romance with heat, heart, and more than a little strangeness, you’re in the right place.

Welcome to the library.
