The night I’m released from prison, she’s in my bed.

It’s been eight years since I touched a woman, and the Native American beauty is half-dressed, beaten, bruised, and devastatingly exquisite.

We’re toxic together, but we want the same things. Blood. Vengeance.Violent relief in a warm body.

Beneath her touch, I’m alive. Against her skin, I’m redeemed. Buried inside her, I forget the past. Until the past takes her from me.

Prison made me cold, but losing Raina makes me cruel. Ruthless. Unforgiving. I killed before. For her, I’ll kill again. I’ll end this once and for all or die in my boots.

I was provided a review copy; this did not influence my opinion of the book.


This series has complex stories with complex characters. I have experienced all the emotions while reading it. With ‘Knotted’, Pam Godwin built a rollercoaster of emotions. The highs were thrilling and the lows were gut-wrenching. While reading ‘Buckled’, either my heart was in my throat, tears were in my eyes, or I was bellowing with laughter. With ‘Booted’, I felt disappointment. I had high expectations for Lorne’s story. After reading ‘Buckled’, I couldn’t wait to read his book and get inside his head. Sadly, I didn’t learn who Lorne was, what he thought about while in prison or what kept him going. I didn’t feel his struggle. We know why he made the choice to go to and stay in prison, but when he’s released, he showed no emotion toward his sister. I cared more about Raina than him. Her struggle and her fight were more interesting to me. Their relationship was full of fire, disagreements, and passion. Sadly, though, whereas with ‘Buckled’ I loved that the sensual moments complimented the story, and were not the focus, I didn’t feel the same with ‘Booted’. And, in fact, found myself skimming the sex scenes. While this didn’t work for me, I am in the minority. My friends who have read it really enjoyed it. So I do encourage you to read it. I would love to know your thoughts!

About Pam Godwin

New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author, Pam Godwin, lives in the Midwest with her husband, their two children, and a foulmouthed parrot. When she ran away, she traveled fourteen countries across five continents, attended three universities, and married the vocalist of her favorite rock band.

Java, tobacco, and dark romance novels are her favorite indulgences, and might be considered more unhealthy than her aversion to sleeping, eating meat, and dolls with blinking eyes.
