Hot and Badgered

Five stars for what it is - a very funny, action packed, violence packed romantic fantasy about weres. This is a story of three bad-ass half sisters with a no-good honeybadger daddy, and each their own mom. The eldest, Charlie, has a wolf mom, who ends up being mom for everyone, as first the middle-sister's (Max) honeybadger mom leaves her daughter to be watched after while she was busy doing a heist, and then the little sister's (Stevie) tiger mom did the same. And then when their dad gets the wolf mom killed, the girls wander to live with her dad's pack. It was so funny, I laughed out loud a lot, and read a lot of passages to my husband. :-D Not that much hot sex, but some. I love it how Shelly makes the shapeshifters behave like the animals they are supposed to be, even when they are in their human form. I love these people, most of them. The villains are adequately evil and scary, the dad is an a-hole, and I love the violent fighting scenes. Charlie is my hero! :-DNow, this is the first in the Honey Badger Chronicles, but it helps, if you start with [b:Pack Challenge 112539 Pack Challenge (Magnus Pack, #1) Shelly Laurenston https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388246223l/112539.SY75.jpg 108358], the first book in the “Smith's Shifter World Series”. There were quite a lot of people I didn't have the slightest idea of who they were or what they were, and that made it a bit hard to understand.
