“When it comes to combining offbeat humor and mayhem, it is tough to beat Laurenston.”
—RT Book Reviews
She’s the woman he’s been hired to kidnap. But ZeZé Vargas has other ideas . . . like getting them both out of this nightmare alive. Just one problem. She’s crazy. Certifiably. Because while he’s plotting their escape, the petite Asian beauty is plotting something much more deadly . . .
Max “Kill It Again” MacKilligan has no idea what one of her own is doing with all these criminal humans until she realizes that Zé has no idea who or what he is. Or exactly how much power he truly has.
But Max is more than happy to bring this handsome jaguar shifter into her world and show him everything he’s been missing out on. A move that might be the dumbest thing she’s ever done once she realizes how far her enemies will go to wipe her out. Too bad for them Zé is willing to do whatever it takes to keep her alive . . . and honey badgers are just so damn hard to kill!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Laurenston (In a Badger Way) delivers all the dark, hilarious lunacy her fans expect in this third Honey Badger Chronicles paranormal romance, which delves into the life of the middle MacKilligan sister. Max MacKilligan, a full-blooded honey badger shifter, has a well-earned reputation for smiling sociopathy, so it's no surprise that very few of the ex-military criminals hired to kidnap her make it out of their encounter alive. In fact, the lone survivor is Z Vargas, who Max spares because she can sense that he is a jaguar shifter, though he doesn't know that yet. Z , who infiltrated the kidnappers hoping to take their organization down from the inside, is a model of sanity and integrity and he's completely out of place in the all-shifter neighborhood of New York City into which Max drags him. Max's fierce devotion to her sisters and loyalty to her friends quickly win Z over as he attempts to navigate both his newfound powers and the shifter world while keeping Max safe from the myriad enemies who want her dead. 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.

Definitely a repeat read
I’ve read this book several times and will read it several more…. Awesome laugh and great read…
Loved it
What a fun read. I agree with other reviewers that there was a lot of filler and chaotic jumping around, but in the end, I loved it. I did not understand the hatred Mairia had for Max. The only thing I could figure was jealousy. Everyone was terrified of Maira, the Cracken, for years. Then Max comes along and is a better killer. That was a weird turn of events. I figured the author could not figure out how to tie up that story so gave us this weirdness. I thought Ze and Max were the perfect couple. Both a different crazy. Loved how he loved his tree. Such a funny story. I did miss the triplets. Berg rarely spoke. Glad I finally read it. It was in my library since the release. Highly recommend.
