About this ebook
At the core of New Orleans lie the otherworldly vampires and shape–shifters that hide in plain sight among mankind. As one of the Keepers, an elite group possessing superior skill and strength, Fiona MacDonald's duty is to maintain peace in a place where one vampire's bite could ignite war. When Detective Jagger DeFarge, a vampire, is called in at the discovery of a body drained of blood, both the detective and Fiona must join uneasy forces.
Jagger will stop at nothing to find the murderer including working with the sensual and suspicious Fiona. As more die, it becomes clear that this isn't the work of an ordinary vampire. No one is safe. So when the killer's attention turns to Fiona, will Jagger risk destroying his own species to protect the woman he so passionately desires?
The Keepers: Three extraordinary sisters, balancing the duties of their birthrights and the yearnings of their hearts

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5What another great book! I never suspected that kind of ending ... It is a must read!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I did want to like this one, but somehow it just didn't hit my sweet spots.Fiona MacDonald is a keeper, one of a group of humans who ensure that the supernatural creatures who share this world with the humans police themselves and keep under the radar. Jagger DeFarge is a policeman, a detective and also a vampire. When the second young woman is found drained of blood in a cemetary, the fingers start pointing at vampires, but neither Jagger or Fiona are happy with the accusations and are convinced that there's something else going on.He really should have just arrested Fiona and got a vampire leader to lock her up in a cell I'm sure they have for containing vampires (she can use some of their powers), so that he could get on with the investigation without her introusions. She kept getting in the way of his work, liking her is not a reason not to stop her from making a mess of the investigation.Readable but the heroine displayed a little too much too stupid to live traits.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Loved the twist and turn
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Fiona MacDonald and her sisters are the Keepers of supernatural creatures in New Orleans. Fiona is the Keeper of the Vampires and has some of their abilities. When things go wrong in the supernatural community it is up to the Keepers to settle things. But when the supernatural invades the human world in the form of murder, the Keeper has to work with the police. This time the victims are drained of blood and the lead detective, Jagger of DeFarge, is himself a vampire. He and Fiona join forces to find the killer and find each other along the way.I enjoyed this book. This is one of those stories where the supernaturals are just trying to fit in and hide in plain site. I enjoy that sometimes. I think the characters were really well defined and the world is well setup for the next book in the series. There is just enough romance and sex for me. Not too much but enough to steam up my glasses just a bit.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Keepers is the first in a collaborative trilogy by three award winning authors 1)The Keepers by Heather Graham, 2) The Shifters by Alexandra Sokoloff and 3) The Wolven by Deborah LeBlanc. The otherworld or underworld has to have order and policing just like the human world and that’s where The Keepers come in, in the form of three sisters each responsible for a sector or species of creature they make sure the rules are followed or the consequences could be deadly.Fiona MacDonald is the keeper of the Vampire society and it looks like there’s a rogue out there killing innocent and not so innocent victims and while she’s hot on their trail she’s constantly bumping into sexy Vampire cop Jagger DeFarge with who’s help she intends to put an end to the killings even if it kills her. Jagger is a Vampire and perhaps a better New Orleans cop because of it, he can smell a rat and the rat seems to be a Vampire, but not all is as it seems and he with the help of sexy Vampire Keeper Fiona will have to battle to end the senseless killings.These characters are literally out of this world and out of this world good as well, we have all manner of fantasy and paranormal species that could only be visited between the pages of a novel of which Ms. Graham is no stranger as she herself is the author of many, many previous paranormal reads. She gives us a dialogue mix between antebellum and modern slang with characters that could grace the cover of Vogue one minute and the cover of Sci-Fi magazine the next. Her hero Jagger and heroine Fiona give us mere humans something to yearn for as she mixes not races but species to race toward their HEA. The love scenes are as hot as the New Orleans summer and will make your palms sweat even in the Arctic in winter, and yet the love these two characters feel for each other make the explicitness of the scenes necessary.So get your bite on and experience the first in this wonderfully new, inventive and imaginative paranormal trilogy The Keepers is a keeper.
