An Amazon Most Anticipated Book!
“Shelly Laurenston’s shifter books are full of oddball characters, strong females with attitude and dialogue that can have you laughing out loud.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer
The Honey Badgers are at it again in the New York Times bestselling and outstandingly witty, snarky, sexy, shape-shifting, world-building Honey Badger Chronicles. This time around, a family of clueless tiger shifter brothers have no idea how lucky they are to have caught the eye of three fierce honey badger females.
Emily “Tock” Meyerson-Jackson is on a mission to rid the world of shifters trafficking humans for hunting and cash. And now that she’s narrowed down her suspects to a brutal coalition of male lions, nothing will get between this honey badger and her prey—not even a dog-loving Tiger with absolutely no time management skills. Doesn’t matter that Shay Malone is ferociously adorable. With a war brewing between cat families, Tock doesn’t have time to lounge around with a football-playing tiger shifter. But when she realizes the coalition is also responsible for the death of Shay’s father, she’s forced to partner up with the flirtatious feline. . . .
Revenge is most definitely on the menu for Shay and his tiger shifter brothers. But when it comes to Shay’s alluring partner in crime-solving, so is seduction. Tock might be a bad-ass of a honey badger, but she’s awfully cute when she’s flashing her fangs, which she’s pretty much doing all the time these days. Good thing revenge is a dish best served hot. Because when it comes to Tock, Shay knows just how to turn up the heat. . . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A fun, action-packed romp, Laurenston's fifth Honey Badger Chronicles paranormal romance (after Breaking Badger) follows Emily "Tock" Lepstein-Jackson, who shape-shifts between a human and a honey badger, though her honey badger nature rules her personality at all times. Whether she's helping her grandmother's syndicate right wrongs, winning basketball games in an underground shape-shifter's athletic league, or practicing her skills as a master thief, Tock always leaps headfirst into danger. Her most recent mission: to stop the lion shifters she suspects of human trafficking. Weretiger Shay Malone is after the same lions, who are responsible for the death of his father. Shay is uncommonly kind in a cruel world, but he's still up for action and adventure—which is good, because working together with Tock lands him in ambushes, hospitals, and more. Meanwhile, Tock shows her budding love for Shay in the fiercely protective way that only a honey badger can. Though newcomers may struggle to keep up with the layered worldbuilding and large supporting cast, Laurenston delivers all the fast-paced comedy, romance, and hijinks that longtime fans expect. For those readers, this will be a treat.
Customer Reviews
Loved it!
I love Shay and Tock. Oh and Dani. I hope one day Dani gets her own book.
I did not really like the book in the beginning. It was to slow and not very interesting but wow did it pick up with a great twist and suspense and I can not wait for the next book!
Insanely great!
I envy those folks who are just now starting to read Shelly Laurenston’s Honey Badger Chronicles. Nothing beats the first reading of these hilarious stories. By the second and third readings our delight and wonderment has been replaced with delight and anticipation of the outrageous story to come. Try one; you’ll see.
Not Yo Momma's Badger Book
Really! I wasn’t ready for the incredible action in this one but, WOW. Amazing! I usually read in the evenings but I was really hunger for spaghetti and found myself reading it while the pasta cooked because..ya know…Charlie. Every “Badger Force” fan can’t miss this one!
