Black Hamptons

De: Carl Weber, La Jill Hunt

When a piece of land comes up for sale in this exclusive community, it sparks a war between the Brittons and the Johnsons. It’s old money versus new money, and neither family seems willing to compromise. Will the tension between them shatter any hopes of a peaceful summer?

Hidden away near the end of Long Island, New York, is a community where affluent African Americans, their friends, and the wannabes have secretly vacationed for more than 75 years. Unlike the bluffs of Martha’s Vineyard, black folks here own five miles of prime beachfront. With a mix of legacy families, new money, hangers-on, and thirsty developers, drama can never be far behind in a place called . . . the BLACK HAMPTONS.

The Brittons are the owners of Amistad Bank, the nation’s largest minority-owned bank. They consider themselves the “First Family” of the Black Hamptons and have owned their estate home for three generations. Their matriarch, Carolyn Britton, and her two sons, Malcolm and Martin, are not to be played with. They truly embody the Black Hamptons’ old guard and will do whatever they feel is necessary to maintain their place at the top.

The Johnsons are relatively new to the Black Hamptons, having summered there only five years. Sometimes they still feel like outsiders, but that might be because Anthony Johnson is viewed as competition by the Brittons. He’s the handsome CEO of Sydney Tech, a company he built from the ground up. Many people consider him the most powerful man in the Black Hamptons, but don’t say that around the Britton boys.

Loved the book!

Loved It. Couldn't stop listening. Finished it quickly. I must admit that the BET+ series sparked my interest in the book.

Unfinished

The story is unfinished! They left it on a cliffhanger!! The one girls voice was annoying but everyone else was fine.

Whew the Mother in Love

Great listen. Narration top tier. Enjoyed the story. Character development flowed. The book is a great prequel to the show.

I need more

Hurry up with the follow up. This was too good. Well written kept me on the edge of my seat

Rushed Ending

My title says it all. Loved everything about the book and reading. Just felt like the ending was rushed. It needs a Book 2, to let the reader know what happened to the other characters. You gave all the people in the book a major part. But technically only gave 1 of them somewhat of an ending.

Please do a continuation. You could always call it The End of Summer In The Black Hamptons!!!

The End!!!

Oh My! I was hanging on to every word. Wow!She would faint at the end.

Amazing

I enjoyed the entire book. Narration giving exactly what they’re supposed to be giving. I loved the delivery of this book, overall a good story & left me wanting for more. I wish the second book was available on here,.

A must read

If you know the life then you know. The first time I’ve read fiction concerning the black elite that really depicted the truth.

Great story, excellent performance

The storyline, while not plausible, was certainly enjoyable. It was like listening to a television sitcom. The plethora of actors enhanced my enjoyment. I will be buying more of Weber’s books.
