New Release: Her Terms Only

If you’ve been following the Carver Brothers Trilogy, you already know this: Marcus Carver—the oldest brother—is not easy to love. He’s controlled, calculating, used to getting exactly what he wants. He doesn’t ask. He decides. And yes… he can be arrogant. Even unkind.

But the question that kept pulling at me from the very beginning was this: is he actually a criminal?

I knew early on that I wanted to redeem Marcus—but not in a way that softened him into someone unrecognizable. His personality is too strong for that. Too sharp. Too set in its ways. If he was ever going to fall—truly fall—for someone, it couldn’t be on his terms. It had to be with a woman he couldn’t outmaneuver. Someone who held authority over him. Someone who forced him, for once, to let go of control.

That idea became the heartbeat of Her Terms Only—the third and final book in the Carver Brothers Trilogy.

This story brings Marcus face-to-face with Elena Voss, a federal prosecutor who doesn’t just challenge him—she dismantles everything he thought he understood about power.

She builds cases. He controls outcomes. Neither of them expected to lose control.

Elena is handed what should be a perfect case: airtight evidence, aligned witnesses, a guaranteed conviction against Marcus Carver. It should be simple. But something about it feels… off. Too precise. Too clean. And Elena trusts patterns—this one doesn’t fit.

Marcus, for his part, isn’t afraid of being investigated. What unsettles him is Elena herself. She’s the first person he can’t read, can’t influence, can’t bend. And instead of pushing her away, he finds himself drawn to her—because she refuses to play his game.

As Elena digs deeper, the truth begins to fracture everything. What looks like a solid case may actually be something far more dangerous: a carefully constructed frame designed to destroy Marcus completely. And exposing it will cost her—her career, her reputation, and the life she’s fought to rebuild.

What follows is a reluctant alliance. The kind where trust is fragile, stakes are high, and every step forward tightens the trap around them.

And then there’s the pull between them—unexpected, undeniable, and impossible to ignore. Because if Elena is wrong, she ruins an innocent man. And if she’s right… someone powerful will make sure they both fall.

Her rules. His restraint. Their hearts.
