Lisa Carter is Starr's mother and Maverick's wife. She is employed as a nurse at the Garden Heights medical clinic, until she is later offered a better position in management at a hospital in a nicer neighborhood. Lisa worries about Starr's well-being, and the emotional toll the events of the story are taking on her, but she supports Maverick when he encourages her to speak out. Lisa offers words of wisdom to Starr about taking the time to mourn Khalil, and about ending her friendship with Hailey, who is a toxic influence in her life.
