Description

The “hot and humorous” debut of the action-packed shapeshifter series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Pride novels (USAToday.com).
 
It’s not every day that a beautiful naked woman falls out of the sky and lands face-first on grizzly shifter Berg Dunn’s hotel balcony. Definitely they don’t usually hop up and demand his best gun. Berg gives the lady a grizzly-sized t-shirt and his cell phone, too, just on style points. And then she’s gone, taking his XXXL heart with her. By the time he figures out she’s a honey badger shifter, it’s too late.
 
Honey badgers are survivors. Brutal, vicious, ill-tempered survivors. Or maybe Charlie Taylor-MacKilligan is just pissed that her useless father is trying to get them all killed again—and won’t even tell her how. Protecting her little sisters has always been her job, and she’s not about to let some pesky giant grizzly protection specialist with a network of every shifter in Manhattan get in her way. Wait. He’s trying to help? Why would he want to do that? He’s cute enough that she just might let him tag along—that is, if he can keep up . . .

    I have never laughed so hard or so much when reading a book. This book was lots of fun and I am definitely reading the others in the series.

    This was a pleasant change from other shifter storylines that I have read. Most of the others revolve around alpha shifters. I like those, too, but this one made me laugh out loud several times. Max was a hoot and Stevie was funny in a crazy way (pun intended). I loved how Charlie managed them both but still was able to find the humor in the situations they found themselves in. It was a little too long for me, hence the 4 stares, but overall I liked the author’s writing style and it kept my interest for most of the story.

    This is my first read from this author. Not my last. I was looking for humor and definitely found it. However, I was expecting a cheezy PNR. You know the ones. Smart, tough females turn into TSTL, while hot guy saves the day with no real story and lots of sexy times. Despite the ratings, I prepared myself for disappointment. Boy was I wrong. This book was full of strong female characters. The three main characters Charlie, Max and Stevie are sisters. All are very strong and smart. The youngest, Stevie is an actual genius. They share an idiot, selfish father and different mothers. There is action throughout the entire book. However, you are laughing from the Prologue to the Epilogue. Amazingly enough, there is an actual story. Sit back and enjoy this page turner. I’m moving on to the next installment.

    I really can’t understand how none of Ms. Laurenston’s books have been made into movies. Many lesser books have. This book especially would make a phenomenal film. This is my second time reading it and I love it even more than the first time. Maybe Chinese investors would fund it; they are really infatuated with the kind of CGI which would make a movie of this book snap. We can only hope—and read the rest of this author’s works.
  • Hilarious and Action packed
