About this ebook
#1 Essence bestselling author K’Wan returns with The Diamond Empire, the explosive, hard-hitting follow-up novel to the street love story Diamonds and Pearl.
It’s about to be an all-out war. While an ambitious rival has taken over Diamonds’s crew, Diamonds lies in wait in exile, carefully planning his next move to comeback and reclaim his position as king of the streets of New York for good. But when an unexpected enemy from the past one-ups Diamonds and beats him at his own game, Diamonds needs to dig deep into his bag of tricks—and make an unlikely alliance—in order to climb back to the top.
After opening her heart to Diamonds and then having him disappear, Pearl lives her days in a very dark place. But when her father’s empire is toppled and a gaping power vacuum needs to be filled, Pearl is drawn into the very life her father so desperately wanted to shield her from. Pearl needs to fight tooth and nail to become queen of her father’s kingdom, as Diamonds claws his way back to Pearl.

Most authors who write about urban crime fiction just can't seem to get it right, i always get the sense I'm reading a book by someone who learned about the inner city by watching hollwood movies , but not K'wan, he's a master storyteller. K'wan's writing style makes the reader feel like they are actually in the hood and this book is another example of his exemplary work. I read this title in one day it was amazing

I absolutely loved this book. Actually I've loved all the books I have read by K'wan. Something else that I love is how K'wan incorporates his characters from different stories into the new stories so all of his books are connected in variations of slight to full. I will be recommending this book to all of my friends just as I have in the past of other novels by K'wan!

I love his library of Books. I actually believe "Animal" can be made into a really good dramatic movie if done right. Think Nino Brown 21st Century Style" but more Human and indepth characthers. I see "Fizz" from B2K as adult Ashanti and "Lloyd" as "Animal" adult "Animal".....I got it all mapped out. Let me know what you think I'm a one person marketing firm. "MommyGirl Creations" "I can make good things better....better things the best ....and the best thing even better" There is a lot of talent from the LHH franchise, Kandie and Diddy working the soundtrack will take it to the next level....oh "Cardi B" can be "Yoshi" and newcomer "Channel West Coast" can be the one name that slips me....she's the only White girl that was in their clique who got killed. Anyways thats your starting line up .... Safyree is "Diamonds" get started on that new series ....let me know what's up....
