THE WEIGHT OF THE CROWN - Book TwoTHE EMPIRE HAS BEEN BUILT. NOW THEY HAVE TO SURVIVE IT.Alano Carter once fought his way from nothing to a life most people could only imagine. Now his name commands rooms, his businesses span industries, and the Carter empire has become a symbol of wealth, influence, and power.But the higher the Carters rise, the more people want to see them fall.At Alano's side is Daniique Mathieu Carter-his wife, equal, confidante, and the woman who knows the man beneath the money. Their marriage is passionate, fiercely loyal, and stronger than the world realizes. Together, they have created more than an empire. They have created a family and a legacy worth protecting.Then the past comes knocking.Shannon Bennett, Alano's calculating ex-wife, returns carrying old wounds and dangerous intentions. What begins as interference soon becomes something far more calculated. False accusations. Staged evidence. Carefully placed lies. And when Daniique suddenly finds herself connected to a crime she didn't commit, suspicion begins closing in from every direction.But Daniique Carter is no damsel waiting to be rescued.As Alano uses every resource at his disposal to protect his wife and family, Daniique begins uncovering the truth for herself-and what they discover suggests Shannon may be only one piece of something much larger.Because someone has been watching the Carter empire.Someone knows where the cracks are.And someone is willing to use their marriage, their children, their reputation, and their future to bring everything Alano built crashing down.Through luxury galas, private family moments, passionate nights, boardroom battles, old enemies, and new betrayals, Alano and Daniique discover that maintaining an empire may be far more dangerous than building one.Money gave them access.Power gave them enemies.Love gave them something to lose.And the crown?The crown has weight.The Weight of the Crown is Book Two of A Carter Empire Novel, an interconnected family saga of love, ambition, wealth, marriage, betrayal, power, and legacy.
