DEATH is the third book in The Keeper Series and concludes the thrilling, sexy urban fantasy saga that began with DUTCH.

I am Death. I run this show. I have many at my command, people love and fear me in equal measure.

But I am almost out of time.

Juma Landry and Dutch Mathew have a love that is strong and sharp, wild and soothing. They would go to the ends of the earth—and beyond—to save each other from the hell of this world. To put a smile on each others’ face day after day. But danger is coming, dark forces that will push Juma to her capacity, evil that will rip away her lives.

One.

By.

One.

I know Dutch can’t bear to lose this woman—the darkness that always lives inside him will swallow him whole. But I’ve got plans for Juma. She’s always been my favorite, my sweet, my beautiful, my light. And now, I need her more than ever, one last time…

Savage poetic beauty. It's as if words in a dictionary were asked if you could be strung together in the most effectively stunning formation how would you do that, but you must be vulgar, hopeful, animalistic, loving and violent, Dutch, Juma and now Death would be the outcome. This needs to be read out loud the writing is so brightly dark and vivid an imagination is not needed. Death was the only proper outcome for many and when Simone embraced Khan I felt it was too kind but necessary. Limited time and yet unlimited lifetimes of power and love achieved through such brutality and sadness.

I thankfully received an ARC for my honest opinion.

By now you should have already read Dutch (Book 1) and Juma (Book 2) and have discovered for yourself that this series is pure poetry.

"She moaned low and just for me and I knew heaven had nothing on her. She was the reason my left lung was smaller than my right—it was all to make room for her, she was my heart." -Dutch

This story is full of pain, death, love and hope. Dutch and Juma were once on opposite sides of a line drawn down the middle between life or death. Dutch is a Keeper. Keepers take the lives of Poochas. Juma is a Poocha. She is one of a small group of people tasked with restoring the life of worthy Poochas. See the conundrum? Once upon a time Keepers and Poochas co-existed with a tentative agreement. A new faction has a deadly agenda and they want Juma and others like her eliminated. Dutch suffers greatly for his love for Juma and Juma sacrifices herself time and time again in the name of love and revolution. Dutch and Juma are pawns in a bigger game that will either be the beginning of something great or the beginning of something more sinister than what now exists.

Wow! This is the 3rd in the series and I was hooked from beginning to end. The characters are amazing and the read is dark with so much emotion. The story really draws you into this world. I loved it!

Madhuri Pavamani really knocked this one out of the park. This last book was full of humor and heartbreak and the most sinful sex scenes I’ve ever read. I couldn’t put this down at all, and I can’t wait to see what this brilliant author has in store for us next.

Fans of paranormal/dark romance, put The Keeper Series on your tbr; you won’t regret it!

One thing I should lead my review off with is that it was not too overwhelming to read this book without reading the others. While there were definitely relationships from the previous books, as well as plot twists, the book wasn't difficult to pick up.

And I think this lies with the electric chemistry between Juma and Dutch, the way it propels the book along, and the strength of their connection.

I just finished this book and am feeling a bit lost knowing that Juma and Dutch and everyone are done. The author out did herself with this series, I was hooked from the beginning of the first book and she kept reeling me in with each book. She has a way of telling a story that makes you want more. Juma and Dutch is a love story that shouldn't be but is, it's love story that's dark but full of light I don't know how else to put it. The author did it to me yet again, from the start I had a feeling she would but wasn't prepared anyways. You have to read this series, it would be a crying shame if you missed out on Juma and Dutch, Dutch and Juma. Toodle-oo!!
