About this listen
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.

As an ex-Navy SEAL there are a few guarantees in life. Avoiding relationships is one of them. Dealing with PTSD is another. So when I come across the Reckless Bastards MC, it’s perfect for a man like me. Last thing I expect is to encounter Jana Carter at a painting class. Don’t ask why I was there. I can hardly keep my eyes off of her. She’s a shy, sultry vixen, and she grabs ahold of me so hard, I can’t let go.

In The Choir Director, Bishop T.K. Wilson is banking on dynamic new choir director Anthony Mackie to reverse the failing congregation’s fortunes. But while Anthony’s got more than enough chops to raise a heavenly chorus, he’s also got a weakness for the ladies that could make the Devil himself stand up and take notice.

My new favorite Author
Where does The Family Business rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The Family Business ranks in the top 10 audiobooks I have listened to over the past 12 years.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Family Business?
When I learned that Paris's job description of "trouble shooter" translated to assassin. What a twist and shocker! Even after learning what the Family Business really was, I didn't expect the spoiled Paris to be a major player.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
The narrators were pretty good, some better than others, but all in all the performance was pleasing
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
The Trouble Shooter
Any additional comments?
Now that I've discovered Carl Weber, I've put all of his books on my wish list. Just bought a new one tonight!

Where does The Family Business rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Loved this book. Brought it with me for a trip to American Samoa, I just couldn't put it down! The plot twists and character development was outstanding. Not to mention the drama kept me glued. Some parts were predictable, but for the most part I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen next. This one is worth your time? I first read Carl Webbers books about three years ago and have devoured everyone since.
