Once again, fourth time novelist, Tracy Price-Thompson has drawn the reader into a captivating and compelling storyline with her latest novel, Knockin' Boots. Price-Thompson continues to demonstrate that she can creatively craft a story and write outside of the box no matter the plot/theme. In her latest release, she takes the reader on a wild and wicked sexcapade as she allows one to experience the wild-freaky side of sexual rendezvous via friends, lovers and spouses.

Set against a military backdrop (Fort Dix, NJ), Price-Thompson demonstrates that once the uniforms come off, the blinds are shut, the bedcovers are turned down, there is no telling who might be knockin' boots with whom. But as the old cliché goes `what is done in the dark will come to the light' and sometimes what is exposed might be embarrassing, explosive, deadly and unfortunately very addictive.

Knockin' Boots is a plot-driven storyline with colorful and memorable characters, edgy dialogue, and sometimes steamy and erotic but definitely raw and raunchy sex scenes. Disclaimer: If you do not like in your face booty call scenes then this might not be the book for you. Filled with taboo and sensitive subject matters, Knockin' Boots touches on any sexual escapade you can envision; if you can imagine it is probably included in the storyline. However, as is Price-Thompson's tradition, when you look beyond the surface, there is generally a social message present.

Despite her latest novel being fun, sexy, raw, edgy, and at times racy, she does not disappoint in leaving us a message to ponder long after the last page is read. If you are looking for a book with plenty of juicy sex scenes, but also a well-written storyline, then check out Knockin' Boots by Tracy Price-Thompson. It is definitely hot and guaranteed to make the most frigid reader warm.

I do not generally like to compare authors to other authors, and readily admit that Price-Thompson is a talented author with her own style who needs no comparison to others. However, I highly recommend Knockin' Boots to Zane fans and believe that after reading Price-Thompson's latest release these same readers will want to pick up her other books.

Hi everyone.

This is Kola Boof, author of "Flesh and the Devil" and a few other books. I'm also a PERSONAL FRAND of Miss Tracy Price Thompson.

Girlfriend did not tell me that this book was off the hook LIKE THIS!!!

Now peep this.

Tracy knows that I'm separated from my kids' father, not open to dating right now, and trying to make sure the boys's Father doesn't have his cake and eat it too----he visits the ranch every weekend to see the boys and sleeps in the guest room downstairs----tries to flirt and act MANLY and stuff, but I'm a totally in control woman, right?

No hanky panky, right?

Raise your sons and leave me alone right?

Well then after we came from church and had dinner, I figure---ok, I'll relax with a nice bubble bath and read Tracy's latest book (see what social issue she carefully talks about but PRETEND to be talking about Acupunctural Orgasms or something with her sly self---she sneaks stuff into your brain like that so you have to watch her paragraphs)....anyway....I'm reading KNOCK'N BOOTS. And wondering...why is this bathwater so hot?

My skin usually gets used to the temperature and I'm able to relax....but the more I read, the more I was sweating.

I swear...I had to get out that damned tub!

And I huffed and wondered-----WHY is this book so damned SEXY???

I kept thinking...OK, it's Tracy Price Thompson, you know she writes incredible love scenes, BUT...surely it's about to get back to a nice boring explaining the characters part or something and give me a Breather from the Steam.

But, no, no. That's why that Heffa called it "KNOCK'N BOOTS" and didn't even TRY to come up with a more pretentious title. She just said---come all YEE freaks and freaks IN dee-NILE.

And who would knock at my door talking about I forgot to bring him some blankets and pillows but the children's father.....then noticed Tracy's book on the bed and asked me, "What's that you're reading?" And then HE picked it up and started reading where I left off....Damn you Tracy!!!!!!

KNOCK'N BOOTS is.....

Passionate, smart, shocking, brazen, make SURE you take a bath before you walk into church on sunday HOT, EROTIC, Better than Sweet Potato pie.....good to the last drop......SEX.

Delirium.

And so, unfortunately....Tracy broke down my RULES....and the children's father benefitted (Oh, HE LOVES him some Tracy Price Thompson!!!!). Meanwhile--I'm mad at old girl for not warning me.

This is NOT "A Woman's Worth". This is tantillizingly delicious "button"-reading. Perfect for slow boring nights or rides on the train to work.

I hope this review makes you buy the book. It really is GOOD and you won't be disappointed. To be honest, although "A WOMAN'S WORTH" was more "literary"----I kinda like the characters in this book better. They are laugh out loud true to life and some of them are doing things we WISH we could do before we hit pass 40.

But within reach. And that's what I love about Tracy's writing. She's so real.

I love her writing style.

Make sure you treat yourself to this (**And get your man a copy).

KOLA

The Military is the background for this tale of sexual addiction and self - hatred. Kevin and Emile are best friends and foster brothers who were sexually abused by their foster mother Dirty Sue. Both are now grown men serving in the military, Kevin a top demolition instructor and Emile a commander, neither would have thought that the severe abuse put on them by Dirty Sue would lead them both down the path of self destruction.

Kevin is married to Fancy Lawson. To the outside world Kevin is a hard working loving husband and Fancy is the one they see out shopping for sex all over town, so they believe she's cheating on him. What people don't know is that Kevin is a abusive heartless man with a serious sexual addiction, he will do anything to get his sexual fix, even send his wife out to solicit partners to play out his perverted sexual fantasies.

Sparkle is Fancy's best friend, sassy and sexy she thinks she's all that and a bag of chips. Sparkle has major issues with black men who date outside their race and would never date a white man or would she?....

Emile worships the ground his white girlfriend Becky Ann walks on. He has no respect for black women and says "too many trifling and confused black women running loose and I can do fine without them". He treats Becky Ann like a queen, but his attitude towards black women doesn't sit well with her and causes big problems...

Tracy Price-Thompson has bought two excellent issues to the table and we are reminded that sexual addiction and self-hatred are serious problems that can lead to HIV and alcoholism and will ultimately bring you down along with your friends and family.
I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

I love stories like this--stories that involve love, sex, drama, deception, and that are written in a down-to-earth way that enables you to relate to the plot(s) despite your education level. I was instantly pulled in to this novel and finished reading it rather quickly. I became a fan of this author after reading this book and now I'm interested in reading her other fiction books (both new and old). I recommend reading this book yourself and I hope you get as much pleasure out of reading it as I did. Enjoy!:)

THE BOOK WAS GREAT, HAD ME GOING FROM START TO FINISH, AND I LEARNED A LOT FR0M READING IT

I really enjoyed this book and with it being the first I have read from Tracy Price-Thompson I will be looking for other books of hers in the future. I really appreciate the subject matter with a sex addict as a male character. The way Mrs.Price-Thompson go into details about the addiction she leaves no stone uncovered. This book is happy and funny at times and others you can feel the grime coming off of the page. There were moments when I said "EWWWW" outloud. I will not give away the story and there is a summary of the book up above to read. I would rather tell you how the book made me feel. It is an excellent read and is most definitely a page turner.

This book was definitely roller-coaster ride!! Emile Pinchback and Kevin Lawson were raised as foster brothers. Emile was a fat dark-skinned child and their foster mother Dirty Sue reminded him of that fact every day and made him her personal slave.

Kevin, however was the "pretty boy" and her daughters Lil Mama and Teesha used him as their sex slaves and infected him with three curable diseases by the time he was in the 7th grade.

Emile grows up to despise everything about black women and tries to imitate white men and date nothing but white women. Kevin turns into a sex predator and uses his wife Fancy as bait for some of his insane sexual urges and sick fantasies. He ultimately rapes her best friend.

This book has some HOT HOT sex scenes, and some twists like you wouldn't believe!!! I read it in two days. You wonm't be disappointed. get it NOW!!!!

Knockin' Boots chronicles the lives of Kevin Lawson and Emile Pinchback two foster brothers who are both stationed at Fort Dix in New Jersey. Both brothers suffer from serious problems due to the abuse of their foster mother Dirty Sue and her two daughters Lil Mama and Teesha.

Dirty Sue and her daughters ridiculed young Emile about his weight and the color of his skin and turned him into their personal slave. But their abuse of Kevin who was a pretty boy was far worse. They used him as a sex slave giving him two cases of the drips and one dose of chlamydia all by the time he was in the 7th grade. Needless to say both Emile and Kevin have serious issues by the time they reach adulthood.

Emile has a hatred of black women and of his own dark skin and now as an adult he can only find beauty in white women (Becky Ann). Kevin has become an sex addict who manipulates his wife (Fancy) into participating in his dirty little games to satisfy his perverted urges.

Fancy has been painted as the base whore because of all the traffic leading in & out of her house but unbeknownst to everyone she's just soliciting partners for her husband. Once Fancy finally decides that enough is enough the book spirals to an explosive conclusion. Kudos to Mrs. Price-Thompson for delving into the taboo subject of sexual addiction and all of it's consequences.

This book kept me on the edge of my seat. I would highly recommend this book to others, especially individuals who may live this type of lifestyle. The ending was a shocker and I felt so sorry for Fancy and Sparkle. Emile and Kevin got what they had coming to them. I hope there is a sequel. I would like to see how everything turns out for them.

Tracy, you really did it this time; This book is off the hook!! OK, you have these two brothers, Kevin and Emile; Kevin is one fine brother and body to boot; that he has to have it whenever he can; Although his wife Fancy is not unlike her husband, it seems as though he goes one leg up the notch to kinkier things; Then you have dark skinned Emile; who hates all things black but cleaves to all things white; but he finds out that all things white may not be the way either if you cannot love who you are in the mirror; For those of you who remembered Black Coffee, Tracy's first novel, folks remember Sparkle Henderson, the sister with attitude but a heart of gold; Add these together along with other characters(a swinging couple, a lilly white sister with a lesson to tell, and a sister Colonel who saves Emile's butt in the end)has the makings of a great book; Underneath this surface is how did these brothers get to this; Read and be aware;
