Pam Godwin is one of my favorite authors and she does dark-romance better than anyone. As much as I loved Conor and Jake, I loved Jarret and Lorne equally as much. Everything he did, he did because he loved Conor and wanted to protect her. Looking back at the choices he made, I can see more clearly why he did the things he did. When it came to Jake, there were times I was so upset with him. I thought Conor was a fantastically strong and independent leading lady. The main characters in this book were both great. There were so many times I wasn't sure what direction this would take, or how the four characters would come back together. What happens with these characters forever alters all of their lives. I was actually a little shocked the author went there seeing as the characters were so young at the time. I'm not gonna lie, what happens in this book is intense. Something happens in the beginning of this book that shakes this couple to the core and changes the lives of these four friends forever.
Conor and Jake have been together for a while now, and even though they are young, they know it's a forever kind of love. Knotted is the story of brothers Jake and Jarret, along with siblings Conor and Lorne. I felt invested all the way through, and I love when that happens! It hooked me from the start and didn't let go till the very last page. I started it in the evening and did not put it down until I finished. OMG Pam Godwin- what have you done to me with this book? This story was unputdownable. If you are worried about something specific, you can always PM me. I will say that this book is riddled with triggers, so be aware of that going in. I'm saying that because if you like dark smut reads, this book will probably do you right. That said, this book was fucking riveting and, while the above issue bothered ME for whatever reason, it definitely won't bother everyone thus, if you are a Godwin fan and/or the blurb interests you, you should absolutely still pick this up - and no, I'm not saying that to kiss ass cause this is an ARC.
It didn't sit well with me, it didn't fit the characterization for that character up to that point (in my opinion), and it tainted the book for me from that point on. This is an ARC, so I need to be vague - but I just didn't like the actions of one of the main characters.
Sadly, this was just not my favorite Pam Godwin, which sucks, cause it started off really strong for me.
