Laugh-out-loud humor, a feminist outlook, and one-of-a-kind shape-shifting romance come together with the continuation of the fan-favorite Honey Badger Chronicles from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Shelly Laurenston.
Nelle Zhao is a social media maven who knows what matters. And the only thing that matters right now is survival. Not easy, though, when her honey badger teammates attract trouble the way she attracts attention. She didn’t know when it became her job to protect the ones she cares about from themselves, but even she has to admit…she’s really good at it. Too bad some people don’t appreciate when she’s being helpful. Especially Keane Malone, who doesn’t know how to accept a friendly paw. But Nelle excels at helping! And at ignoring other people’s irrational demands, such as doing it all alone. Keane, poor pretty kitty, doesn’t understand the kind of assistance a shit-starting honey badger like Nelle can truly offer . . .
Keane knows two things—he doesn’t like other people, and he is going to crush the de Medicis, an evil coalition of male lion shifters who are not only snatching innocent humans for fun and profit, but also killed his father. And for once, he may not be able to fight this fight alone, forcing him to let long-legged, jet-setting Nelle join the fight. And getting close to Nelle is suddenly bringing out his roar . . .
Praise for the Honey Badger Chronicles
“In a Badger Way is pure, unadulterated fun. It’s ten pounds of bursting-at-the-seams excitement in a five pound bag…No one does it like Shelly Laurenston when it comes to unique, unparalleled heroines and the heroes who can’t help but love them. Even when they’re honey badgers.” —Bookpage on In a Badger Way
“A wild, brilliant ride.” —Kirkus Reviews on Badger to the Bone
“A fantastic laugh-out loud read.” —Harlequin Junkieon In a Badger Way
“Fans of shifter romances will not want to miss the latest installment of the Honey Badger Chronicles.” —Bookishon In a Badger Way
“Laurenston delights…Zany, sarcastic humor…Familiar, well-developed characters and full immersion into the universe make this a must-read for a new and returning readers alike.” —Publishers Weekly on In a Badger Way
“After reading Hot and Badgered, I asked myself in which areas of my life can I be more like the honey badgers...Among my favorite things about Laurenston’s writing is how very affirming and inspiring and a whole lot of fun it is, because angry, fearless women make room for themselves, they get shit done, and they’re heroines. More honey badgers please.” —Smart Bitches, Trashy Books on Hot and Badgered
“Laurenston is a comic genius who understands that absurdity often lies at the heart of adventure and romance...Laurenston does it again with her newest book, Hot and Badgered, which is easily the top contender for Best Book Title of the Year.” —Omnivoracious, The Amazon Book Reviewon Hot and Badgered
“Shelly Laurenston’s world of shape-shifters is hilarious, sexy, often casually violent and always absolutely fascinating...The plot zips along with surprising twists, turns and fearless honey badger bravery. The non-stop action also allows for excellent character development and lots of snarky humor is a testament to Laurenston’s skills.” —Bookpage on Hot and Badgered
“Book Two of the Honey Badger Chronicles about the three MacKilligan sisters — beautiful, smart, and crazy-lethal…For all the joyful zaniness of her characters, Laurenston can also cover some heavy topics amid the hilarity and action. Mental health issues are addressed as Stevie works toward self-acceptance with the love and support of her sisters and Shen.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer on In a Badger Way
“Laurenston writes paranormal romance filled with offbeat humor and mayhem…Laurenston makes me laugh out loud. She has been known to make people laugh so hard they roll off their bed.” —Sunday Citizen-News on Badger to the Bone
“Laurenston delivers all the dark, hilarious lunacy her fans expect...Filled with familiar faces and more than a few kooky, delightful surprises, the plot neatly ties up loose ends while dangling tantalizing promises of things to come. Series readers will gobble this up.” —Publishers Weekly on Badger to the Bone
