Knocked up by a Southern preacher, Keyshia is sent to live with her aunt in New York, but after a horrific act of violence, the timid young woman becomes ice-cold - turning tricks and finding comfort in a crack vial.

Clyde and his two brothers find themselves living with a family friend after their mother is shot by their own father - leaving her institutionalized and unable to communicate, and him behind bars. Clyde's older brother leads a decent life, working as a bank manager and trying to keep Clyde off the streets, but Clyde's younger bro is the coldest killer in Harlem and takes every opportunity to involve Clyde in his infamous robberies turned blood baths.

When Keyshia and Clyde meet, they are instantly drawn to each other. Forced to pay back a large sum of cash to one nasty Harlem kingpin or risk the lethal consequences, Keyshia and Clyde use their tight game and their loyalty to pull off the impossible. And when Clyde is falsely accused of a bank hit, Keyshia vows to stick by her man - no matter the cost.

"Treasure Blue continues and solidifies his position as the true heir to Iceberg Slim and Donald Goines. A book full of gritty realism, violence, drug abuse, and hope; the book is simply off the damn hook!" (African American Literary Book Club)

What did you love best about Keyshia and Clyde?

I like the fact that Keyshia took her street smarts and usd them to help get her man out of jail. Which goes to show that if you can concoct an illegal scheme, you can concoct a legal one.

I had been eager to read this book ever since I read and loved Harlem Girl Lost many years ago. After having this book on my audible wish list for months and months, I was so disappointed when it was not anything like I had expected! I did not intend to compare this book to Harlem Girl Lost as I read or in my review now but I just can't seem unable to help but compare the two books! First of all, this book is absolutely nothing like Harlem Girl Llost. Keisha and Clyde is a much more tame, diluted version of that vibrant, engaging book!

Keisha and Clyde is an interesting story about two characters and their immediate families. Although this book is well written and the character's stories are interesting, there were very few exciting or gripping scenes in this book. Additionally, there were very few, possibly no characters that were extraordinary or exceptionally interesting. Mr. Blue is capable of writing compelling, gripping characters and scenes so we do get a few of those in this book but very few; in such a lengthy book, I felt that a lot more was needed. The talent is there, maybe I just chose the wrong book? Hopefully the next book I read/listen to by Mr. Treasure E. Blue will be much more upbeat and juicy!

Treasure E Blue is capable of much more

I did not think I would enjoy this book as much as I did. This was an excellent story that did not fall into the melodramatic, surprising good story with a great end.

In a word WOW

The ending is powerful and awesome. I picked this book by chance. Although Im writing a review, I am a skeptic on others opinions as far as books go. This book was good all the way through. I had it on all three of my computers. The characters a muy vivid, many emotions are evoked. I always compare to Coldest Winter and the darkest child, this is up there. THIS IS A MUST READ!!!!! GO AHAEAD AND SELECT NOW!

MUST READ!!!!

This was my first Audible book, and the first book I have ever listened to on my mp3 player. I guess the angels were in my corner, because this book was AWESOME. The narration was excellent! My intention was to listen to the book while I did my morning walks, but it got so good, that I would listen, at home, at work....everywhere. Lots of suspense and I hated to see this story end!

Loved It!
