Let me start by reminding you that I don't believe in spoilers. So this won't be a play by play of the the book. With that being said, Dutch: The Keeper Series Book One is the fourth book by Madhuri Blaylock. Dark, gritty, carnal, and passionate.
From the very first page, Blaylock paints with her words on the blank canvass of your mind taking you on a journey with Dutch Mathew and Juma Landry. First page to the last you will be completely consumed by Dutch, Juma, The Gate, Keepers, and Poochas. Leaving no stone unturned, Blaylock carefully crafts a a world that will draw you in and hold you captive.
Truth be told when I first started reading Dutch, I thought I was simply going to be reading another paranormal romance. I couldn't have been more wrong. The romantic part of the relationship between Dutch and Juma is a catalyst for the characters, but they are not defined by or bound by that alone. If you're an avid romance reader you will be drawn to the romance piece, but you will quickly find yourself digging into the suspense aspect of the story as well.
Dutch and Juma are both emotionally scarred by events of their individual pasts, and from the day to day gritty grind of the life that they live. What I found fascinating was that its through their damage that they are brought together.
There is ABSOLUTELY nothing formulaic about Dutch. I thought that I would be able to predict the path that the characters were going to take, but I was wrong Blaylocks writing is not for the faint of heart. But I promise you that when you finish, you'll want to start all over again.
