The Carrero Connection – Book One First Draft Complete! ✍️🖤

Today marks a big milestone… The first draft of Book One of The Carrero Connection trilogy is officially complete! This story introduces Nick Carrero and Rachel Hunt, and what began as a fun idea has grown into one of the most emotional Carrero stories I’ve written. Watching these two go from complete strangers to something far more complicated has been an incredible journey, and I’m so excited…

Which Carrero Man Would You Actually Survive Dating?

One thing I’ve learned over the years of writing the Carrero books is that readers never agree on which Carrero man is the best. Every time I think there is a clear favourite, somebody turns up ready to passionately defend another brother and suddenly we’re all debating again. Some readers are completely devoted to Jake. Others will defend Arry until their dying breath. Then there are the Alexi…

The Carrero Family Tree Is Now Available

One of the questions I receive most often from Carrero readers is: “How is everyone related?” With such a large family spanning multiple generations, cousins, siblings, marriages, and future storylines, it can sometimes be difficult to keep track of where everyone fits into the Carrero world. To make things easier, I’ve created an official Carrero Family Tree that brings together the major…

🎵 Music Inspired by the Books of L.T. Marshall

Music and storytelling have always been deeply connected for me, so creating songs inspired by my books felt like a natural extension of the worlds and characters I’ve spent years building. These tracks aren’t official soundtracks or polished studio productions. They’re creative companion pieces inspired by the emotion, atmosphere, relationships, and chaos inside the stories themselves. Some…

The Carrero Empire Song Is Officially Live

One thing readers have always said about The Carrero Series is that it feels cinematic. The emotion, the family loyalty, the chaos, the power struggles, the romance… it has always played out vividly in my head while writing it. So after so many messages asking if the Carrero song would ever be available to download, I finally decided to make it happen. “The Carrero Empire” is now officially…

Idolisation

Demo Audio Disclaimer:This track is a demo created to bring my lyrics to life and explore the sound and direction I’d love to take as part of a band. Vocals and production are not performed by me, and the track is intended for creative and illustrative purposes only. This one came from thinking about how easily people fall in love with a version of you that isn’t actually real. It’s something I…

🎼 I'm Sorry

To hear a digital made demo…. This song comes from a version of me that didn’t understand love yet. Not because I didn’t care… but because I was still too broken, too naive, and too caught up in just surviving my own emotions to really see what I was doing to other people. I moved through connections lightly, chasing the feeling of being wanted without knowing how to return it in a real,…

🎼 Who I wanna be

I feel like this has always been the theme tune of my life. I wrote this with that rebellious teen in mind. Want to hear it? Digitally created demo – Verse1 From the age of nothing, all I heardBeing a girl was something absurdHolding me back from greatnessDNA controlled the place I fitYou push your ideals like it’s the lawExpecting obedience, not ‘Get Lost!’Guess I never knew how to obeybridgeI…

L.T. Marshall Theme Tune

Want to hear it? Digitally created demo – This one is a little different from my usual songs… and very on-brand if you know my books 😏 I’ve spent years creating men that readers fall in love with. The calm ones, the dangerous ones, the ones who say just enough and mean everything. The kind of characters that live rent-free in your head long after you close the book. And somewhere along the…

🎼 Why Me?

This one is about that kind of impact. Not love, not really. More like a collision. The kind of person who walks into your life and suddenly everything feels louder, sharper, more intense than it should. The kind you recognise as trouble a second too late, when you’re already standing in the line of fire. Why Me? Verse 1I always thought I was lucky in loveHad a few brushes, nothing of…

🎼Delusional (alt-rock / pop-rock)

This one’s about that kind of relationship you keep going back to, even when you know better… until one day you finally don’t. Verse 1I was nineteen, totally greenYou came and swept me off my feetI thought it was love, utterly realIt was an illusion steeped in deceit While I was falling, deep, deep downYou kept control of all the feelsEvery promise, every frownJust empty words laced with…

🎵 Same Blueprint.

Verse 1 I don’t know your storyBut I recognise the weightIn the way you hold your silenceLike it’s something you don’t sayThere’s a fire in your distanceLike you’ve walked through it beforeNot asking for forgivenessJust not breaking anymore Pre-Chorus We don’t talk about itDon’t need to explainSome things you just carryLike a permanent stain Chorus We’re built on a similar emotional…
