A Carter Brother Series

Malik
I’m Harlow Evans. Shortly after my parents were murdered I moved in with my Grandma.
It meant switching schools, losing friends, and moving away from the only home I knew. All I wanted was to finish the school year hassle free.
Switching seats on that first day altered my life. After surviving the loss of my parents I never thought anything could break me, but then HE came into my life....
He wants to hurt me
Destroy me
Ruin me
Tragedy brought me here, and a cruel twist of fate has me desperate to leave. There's also someone here that has me fighting to stay though.
All my life I’ve lived in the shadows, trying to go unnoticed, until I met HIM....
Malik Carter....
He’s broody, quiet, and holding on to a dark past. From that first meeting I was drawn to him, his painfully gorgeous looks and model physique, but I also knew he was totally out of my league.
He's the boy next door who, with his domineering personality, has somehow etched his way into my life.
When the Carter Brothers take it upon themselves to protect me from what’s coming, I’m not sure whether to be relieved or shocked.
You see, when a Carter brother loves, they love fiercely, strongly and protectively. No one can get in their way. They’re also used to getting what they want, even if it means getting hurt.
There’s one thing you should know about the Carter brothers before you read my story....
If you mess with one, you mess with them all.
Mason
​I’m Denny Smith.
The kindest thing my parents ever did for me, was kick me out. To them, I ruined my future, and they wanted no part in it.
I didn’t. I was a naïve seventeen-year-old girl who chose to sleep with the boy she had loved from afar for years. Only, said boy wanted nothing to do with me in return, and he let me know it over and over again.
So I left.
And I took a secret with me. A big one.
Because I had to protect my heart.
Now, I have to return to Coldenshire to be a key witness in a court case about my friend.
I planned to be in and out without being seen, but the Carter’s and my best friend have other ideas.
They want me to stay.
Because he knows my secret.
Only, I’m not the same broken girl who left. And he isn’t the same guy.
I don’t know if I can trust him with my heart again.
And I don’t know if I’m strong enough to say no.

The first time I walked through the gates of Grayson High, I was sweet and innocent, and the world seemed bright with colour.
Now all I see is grey.
Craig Davis ripped my innocence away from me, tortured me, and made my life a living hell. He broke me down until I could no longer recognise who I was.
But that’s about to change.
I’m ready to face my fear. And that’s going right back to the very place all of this started.
Grayson High.
Back to the halls where students whispered, bullied, and taunted me. Where the teachers turned a blind eye and ignored my torment.
All but him.
Myles Carter sees right through the forced smile and fake persona. He did then and he does now.
He sees the real me.
Which scares me. Because I have a secret. A big one. And I don’t want it getting out.
I’m Kayla Martin, and this is my story.
Evan
Evan Smith has had his life planned out since the age of twelve. He knew what he wanted and knew how to get it. It’s only when his sister is kidnapped that he realises that the life he has isn’t the one he really wants. He wants more. Evan starts laying down roots and everything seems to be going well until a hot, tiny brunette with round brown eyes turns up at his doorstep. Not only does her beauty knock Evan off his feet, but what she comes to tell him alters his whole life. Kennedy may have given him news that shook him, but she also gave him the very thing he had wished for. But when someone threatens to break up the life he's always wanted, how will he handle it? Will he be able to keep them safe or will he be too late?
Max
Max
I’ve got my looks, my charm, and a smile that melts panties. My extraordinary charisma, however, didn’t get me very far when the police caught me vandalising church property.
In my defence, I didn’t know it was a church. Now, I've got to serve my sentence: three months' community service at the church's Salvation Shelter.
The judge thinks three months here will change me; put a stop to my delinquent ways.
The fool couldn't be more wrong. Nothing—no one—will ever tame me.
I was taught at an early age that love destroys you.
Love is a weakness, which is why that four-letter word will never leave my mouth.
Lake
For the past year, I’ve been living on the streets. I ran away from home with only a backpack, and left everything else behind.
When I arrived in Coldenshire, and a job at a local church shelter popped up, I took it. I was tired of being hungry and searching for scraps in bins.
I know my time here is running out, especially when the town’s bad boy gets me caught sleeping in the church shed.
I should have run that night, but instead, a family brought me into their home.
With him: the guy who got me caught.
He’s sexy as sin and annoying as hell, since he thinks he’s God’s gift to women. Ignoring him is out of the question because he is constantly getting in my space.
He’s everywhere I turn.
He thinks life is a joke, that his smart mouth hides the pain behind those soulful brown eyes, but he’s so off track I’m surprised he’s not lost.
I see the real him though, and it scares me. I have my own pain, my own loss and grief to suffer through; I don’t need anyone else’s.
I don’t need anything.
Not love, not sympathy, and certainly not forgiveness.
After all, I’m a murderer.
Maverick
MAVERICK
I'm the eldest of five brothers.
Brothers I fought to protect.
Brothers I failed.
They don't know the truth. I've kept secrets. Told them lies.
And now everything I've worked so hard to keep hidden is about to explode and everyone I wanted to protect will be caught in the crossfire.
TEAGAN
Meeting him was fate.
Him being a part of my past was a coincidence.
Falling for him was my destiny.
What happens after... THAT is a disaster.
