Carly Bryant
Romance and romantasy with heart, heat, and the kind of found family that feels more real than blood. Love stories that don't pretend the world is simple.
The Chaos Coven Series
A found family of queer women in Brooklyn — tender, emotionally driven, and built around the idea that the people you choose can hold you together when blood family won't.
The Inner Circle
Meet the Chaos Coven before it all began. Sierra and Lauren's story starts in Brooklyn, before the park, before the photograph, before everything that comes after.
The Inner Circle is the essential prequel to the Chaos Coven series — introducing the found family, the friendships, and the community that holds everything together. Free as an ebook. Available in paperback for those who want it on their shelves.

Loving Lauren
Photographer Sierra Turner has always been better at capturing other people's moments than living her own. Until one afternoon in the park changes everything.
Lauren creates beauty for a living, but they've spent years learning that being seen comes with risks. When their worlds collide, both must decide whether love is worth the vulnerability it demands.
Loving Lauren is a contemporary LGBTQIA+ romance about chosen family, personal growth, and discovering that sometimes the most beautiful love stories begin when you finally stop running from yourself.
Features pansexual and transgender protagonists with themes of family, identity, and healing. A tender, character-driven romance with gentle intimacy and emotional depth.
"Some things don't feel imagined. They feel like prologues, and Sierra wasn't ready to let go of the beginning."
Loving Lauren is a standalone romance, but the found family you'll meet here... they'll show up again.
- Transphobia (external, not within the relationship)
- Family rejection
- Pansexual identity invalidation
- Light references to past trauma (not graphic)

Other Titles
Encore
Autumn Winters has sworn off men. At thirty-four, she's got enough on her plate running a struggling animal rescue without adding relationship drama. Then she locks eyes with Cole Stone across a crowded bar, and every rational thought vanishes.
He's twenty-four. A musician. Everything she's told herself to avoid.
But Cole sees past her walls, her insecurities, and her dog-hair-covered wardrobe. He wants her — age gap, trust issues, and all.
Three days. That's all they have before his tour takes him away. Three days to decide whether this combustible chemistry is worth the risk.
Sometimes the best encores are the ones you never saw coming.
