Sometimes a story knows who it is long before the cover does.
Over time, these books became deeper, darker, more emotionally raw than I first imagined — so I gave them the visual identity they always deserved.
Hostile Takeover is now Mine & Yours — the first and second books in the Carter Dynasty series. Burn With Me has become Almost Yours and Never Enough — the first two books of the Almost Series.
Same stories. Same heat. Same emotional wreckage you fell in love with.
Just finally wearing the right name.
If you’ve already read Hostile Takeover or Burn With Me, you’ve already been there. You know what happens. These aren’t new books — they’re the same ones, finally dressed the way they always should have been.
If you’re new here: welcome. You’re starting exactly where you should.
One note on Burn With Me: this one is a special case — it’s still available under its original title on some platforms while the transition completes. I’ll update you when it’s fully live everywhere. In the meantime, Almost Yours and Never Enoughare the versions to read.
The Carter Dynasty and Almost Series are available on Amazon, including Kindle Unlimited.
Mine
She perfected the art of invisibility.
He perfected the art of obsession.
Lena Monroe has everything: a powerful husband, a beautiful Geneva home—a life that looks flawless from the outside. But inside, she’s disappearing fast. Her only true escape? Writing forbidden, filthy novels under a secret pen name. Her words are dark… and definitely not for public consumption.
Enter Dr. Daniel Carter: brilliant, dangerous, out for revenge against the man who destroyed his career (hint: Lena’s husband). Seducing Lena was supposed to be his weapon.
But then Daniel stumbles on Lena’s secret pages—her unfulfilled fantasies, her hidden cravings, every dark desire she’s too scared to say out loud. Now? Destroying her husband isn’t enough. Daniel wants to give Lena every wicked thing she’s written about—whether she’s ready or not.
When the man sent to break you becomes the only one who truly sees you…
Game over for everyone.
Mine is book one of The Carter Dynasty Trilogy—a dark romance loaded with obsession, power plays, and oh-so-dirty words.
Mature content, obsessive antihero, power dynamics, cliffhanger ending!
Audiobook available on Spotify.
Previously published as Hostile Takeover in the Forbidden Passion series, now fully revised and re-edited.
Yours
Carter Dynasty Trilogy, Book 2
She tried to choose safe. She tried to be a good wife, a good mother, the woman who could make herself whole by force of will and perfectly filtered posts. But the hunger never left. Daniel Carter still lives under her skin, haunting every touch—even while her husband tells the world he’s proud to love a “dark romance queen.”
Now Lena Monroe is Mara Black—dangerous, honest, finally visible. But the more she feeds the world her stories, the more Daniel pushes her from fantasy into addiction. Late night texts. Lingering shadows. The promise: you’re not just writing it, you’re living it now.
Mark thinks he can protect her, own her, even play her games. But Daniel knows better.
Some desires can’t be buried.
Some men refuse to let you go—even when you beg them to.
Some women can’t be kept safe, because when the fire’s inside you, safety just means you burn slower.
Yours is where pretending ends—and true surrender begins.
🌶️🌶️🌶️ Explicit, Dual POV, deeper obsession, even bigger stakes.
Book 2 of The Carter Dynasty Trilogy.
For mature, messed-up, and dangerously hungry hearts only.
Almost Yours
Geneva.
One man. Two women.
No one is safe.
Liam Morel swore he’d protect the good girl, Élise, but it’s the girl from his past, Sophie, who still haunts his mind and body.
When Sophie storms back into town, desire and old wounds explode. Élise starts to see the cracks and finds escape in the arms of Dr. Theo Marchetti, Geneva’s answer to “bad decisions but make it sexy.”
Staying is slow heartbreak. Leaving costs everything.
Almost Yours is a dark romance about secrets, obsession, and what happens when loving “right” feels all wrong.

Publication note:
Almost Yours is part of The Almost Series and contains the first part of a story originally published in the novel Burn With Me by Cara Ravelli.
Never Enough
Liam Morel chose Élise. He chose loyalty, stability, the life that made sense after everything they lost. It should have been enough.
It wasn’t.
Sophie Dubois was never something he could replace. What they had didn’t fade when he left—it waited. And when he finds his way back to her, it doesn’t feel like a mistake. It feels like recognition.
What begins in secrecy becomes routine. Days with Élise. Nights with Sophie. A life carefully divided, until the lines stop holding.
Sophie no longer asks for promises. Élise no longer believes in them. And Liam, caught between the man he tried to be and the one he can’t stop becoming, realizes too late that wanting both isn’t the same as keeping either.
Élise is the one who ends it.
But losing her doesn’t give him peace.
Because what he has with Sophie was never something he chose.
It was always something he couldn’t escape.
Prefer to listen? Never Enough is also available as an audiobook on Spotify.
