Claire Pierce
Carter knows Claire from several of her parties where he worked at. After her last party prior to the events of Rules of Engagement, Book 1, he left work covered in glitter and gasoline. His refers to her as "princess of spoiled brats". She is very attracted to him and always tries to get his attention and when he politely rejects her, she tells him to give in since her parents are rich and pay his paycheck. So she expects him to do whatever she wants him to do. Carter thinks that Claire is the most frightening teenage girl he's ever seen.

Bartender
They are co-workers and use to spend time together during breaks and talk in the hallway. Bartender thinks Carter is brave for expanding the "five-second rule" to two hours. If Main Character is marrying Bartender in Book 3, Chapter 16, Carter is giving a speech and calls him one of his best buddies on the cruise staff.
