Publisher's Summary
New York Times best-selling author Carl Weber and award-winning novelist Eric Pete team up to deliver the first in a much-anticipated new trilogy. The Family Business features two times the heat, two times the fun, and two times the drama as the members of an unforgettable family (not to mention their lovers and hangers-on) find their way in and out of trouble. As their many fans will attest, Weber and Pete share a talent for penning juicy fiction that their audience can’t get enough of.

"The story unfolds"
Wow how this story unfolded. I simply love the way the authors played the roles that they were assigned. I didn't really know what to expect but at the end of the book all the scheming that was taking place was brought together very well and each individual family members roll. I didn't expect so much drama and I was waiting to see who the first person in the family business was going to die. This book has some of the best narrators that urban fiction has to offer I love Patricia Floyd and Ezra Knight voices very strong. I would recommend this book to other Carl Weber fans.

"Excellent"
Wow! Fast paced and dynamic storyline. I enjoyed the twists and turns of this highly dysfunctional family. Not crazy about the gratuitous sex scenes, but the story kept my attention. Excited to read the next installment.

"NO SUBSTANCE HERE. POOR CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT"
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?MAYBE SOMEONE YOUNGER.
What was most disappointing about Carl Weber and Eric Pete ’s story?THE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND THE STORY DEVELOPMENT. I LIKE WHEN A STORY UNFOLDS, THIS STORY JUST HAPPENED. AND IT WAS VERY THIN.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?THEY WERE GOOD. NO, THEY WERE GREAT.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?THE NARRATORS WERE GOOD. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD STORY IF THEY JUST DEVELOPED IT BETTER. I LIKE TO KNOW ALL THE MAIN CHARACTERS. I FELT LIKE I ONLY KNEW ANY OF THEM THRU THE CONVERSATIONS THEY HAD WITH EACH OTHER.

"Not worth the time"
Any additional comments?Good idea, but didn't work. Situation is interesting, but the characters are wooden, and the plot drags. Quit half way through.

"The Family You Hate To Love"
What made the experience of listening to The Family Business the most enjoyable?I never in a million years would have guessed that this story would turn out to be about this type of family business. When I finally realized what LC was capable I just had to shake my head, and to raise his children up in this manner, well needless to say, I was shocked.
Who was your favorite character and why?I would have to say Paris because she just didn't give a care. She was what she was and nobody could do anything about it.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?Each narrator was very effective in their performance. I greatly enjoyed each one.
If you could rename The Family Business, what would you call it?This was the perfect name because they did actually own a family business, it just wasn't the type of business that the average person would know about.

"Exciting twists!"
Would you consider the audio edition of The Family Business to be better than the print version?Yes, because of the performances- I loved J.C., and Orlando, and, it took a really special person to read Paris' part!
Who was your favorite character and why?I think London... I could identify most with her character, similar experiences...
Which scene was your favorite?Orlando and Ruby...
Paris and Miguel...
Kidnapping..
Too many to name
Who was the most memorable character of The Family Business and why?Paris, I think.
Any additional comments?I can't wait for the sequel!
