Publisher's summary

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....

Contains mature themes.

Awesome book.

I loved this book, I couldn't put it down. I'm glad I stopped waffling about buying it and just bout it. it was worth it.

Honey Badgers are awesome!

Laurenston's Hot and Badgered story had me glued to the tale from the opening scenes. The Sisters are a unique trio with interesting quirks and strong spirit but together they are a formidable powerhouse to be reckoned with. Trouble followed these three and the shenanigans they pulled off to survive had me laughing out loud. An awesome story! Traci Odom did a nice job narrating.

Love this book

I love the humor in all of Shelly’s books. I laugh out loud every time I read or listen to them on them.

Funny and Exciting

This is a fun start to a series! The characters are funny and the plot is entertaining. The narrator does an awesome job with all the different voices and her delivery is spot on! I can't wait to listen to the next one.

Slow Burn

It really takes off after a couple chapters. I love the honest display of the relationship of the sisters. It’s a really good tale with lots of laughs and character arcs.

Very funny

If you like shifter stories with some humor, you’ll enjoy this book. Well written, excellent pace, well defined characters equals a great read. I was listening in bed and had to move because trying to stifle my laughs woke up my husband. It is a laugh out loud shifter family romance.

Loooove this author! Challenging narrator

Loved it but put narration speed at 1.25 to hear the emotion in her voice

Hot and Badgered by Shelly Laurenston
Book 1 of the Honey Badgers Chronicles. Paranormal shifters romp with some romance.

I don’t know where to start with this book. So much happens from the beginning where the three girls join the family compound to their antics as young adults to fully opinionated, strong minded women who take no prisoners in their protection of each other and family. Local laws and international rules make little difference to their crooked father. Because of that, survival for the women is often precarious but regardless, they win against the odds, and live life to the max.
It’s ridiculous and humorous and highly entertaining. There is bickering and manipulation. There is badgering and a reliance of trust. There is a lot of snark. There is a huge cast of extended family that often make the story a bit confusing and crazy but so much fun.
There is also romance and some naked antics.
400+ pages of light heartedness and messy family with little regard to “proper”.

4.5.
I listened mostly to the audiobook. The narrator had me laughing out loud. A good use of emotions and timing.

by the series

I advise everybody that likes comedy good book action come to characters to buy this book to buy this series I don't know about the rest of the reviews I don't know anything about a narrator because nine times out of 10 you getting outrageous that you don't like listening to I listen to the book not the narrator and it is hilarious please please write another one immediately I am so ready do not listen to the rest of them please write another one

Hysterically funny

My favorite one yet. If future badger books have a lot to live up too. My only complaint is the strange accents the reader used for people; just seemed awkward and unnecessary.
