What do you do when you’ve got a hillbilly tiger by the tail? Or maybe the question should be: what wouldn’t you do…
Nikolai Vorislav likes his single life just as it is. Simple, relaxing and quiet. What he doesn’t need is some foul-mouthed Texan hellcat living in his house, eating his food, flirting with his idiot brothers and shooting holes in his home with his granddaddy’s gun. But those long legs, dark eyes and lethal tongue are making Nik insane and he fears he may be caught in the sexiest animal trap ever.
Angelina Santiago doesn’t know how she got from Texas to North Carolina in a night or how she ended up in some hillbilly tiger’s house wearing only a sheet. What she does know is that she doesn’t like good ol’ boys with slow, sexy drawls who can’t seem to stop rubbing up against her. Yet in order to protect her friends, Angie has to stay with a cat who seems hellbent on finding all sorts of delicious ways to make her purr.

This is the third and final book in the Magnus Pack series. In this book, we have Angelina getting kidnapped/rescued by a family of tigers from North Carolina. Angelina is a human, but is very close (almost like a sister) to the crazy alpha female of the Magnus Pack.
Nikolai Vorislav is the oldest of his three brothers and sister. His family is very different from most tiger families. All of his brothers and sisters share not only a mother, but a father too. This is very strange in tiger society. Tigers are rarely monogamous, but his father insisted upon it, no matter how much much it irritated his mother. Nik is determined not to walk in his father’s shoes. He has no intention of being with just one girl.
Angie pushes against being held in North Carolina. She takes to spending Nik’s vast fortune. She also has a lot of fun teasing the “hillbilly”. She wants nothing more than to get away from Nik, because he makes her feel things she doesn’t want to feel. However, when she learns that some hyenas are out to get her, she feels that she is safer keeping them from her pregnant friend, Miki.
This book is as funny as you would expect a book from Shelly Laurenston to be, if you’ve ever read anything from her. There are some great one liners. With characters like One Eyed Grandma and cousin Cleatus, what’s not to love. It is truly the characters that pull me into this story. They are all so much fun. Very loyal to their families, even if they aren’t blood relatives, they’re still family. If you haven’t tried the Magnus Pack or Pride series by Shelly Laurenston, I highly recommend to give them a try. They are a fun and light reads that are guaranteed to get me in a good mood.
Southerners always did tell the best stories. Of course, they were also the ones with relatives named Big Earl and Jackie Ray.
She still sighed out her answer, though. “Fine. I’ll go.”
“Now, darlin’. I know I’m pulling you away from playing grab ass with my oldest boy on
his nice hardwood floor…” Angie barely stopped herself from spitting out her mouthful
of coffee. “But if he’s anything like his daddy, trust me, he’ll still be here when you get
back.”
What started off as a nice little birthday party, turned into a full-blown hootenanny. Especially when some Pack from Tennessee showed up up. The Smiths or something. Their name may have been plain but these people really knew how to party.

I’m Melanie and I live in Ohio. I have two horses and a dog. I’m an animal lover, avid book reader and audiobook listener. I like to live vicariously through fictional characters. I enjoy reading and listening to mostly fictional books in the paranormal genre, including Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance and Horror. My favorite paranormal creatures are shifters, doesn’t matter the flavor.
I haven’t read this series, but sometimes I need a fun, light paranormal read. Great review!

This series is really funny. The heroines are crazy and do the funniest things. While I like the heroes of the stories, it the is women who keep me coming back for more.

I agree with Melanie, the woman make this series. And Angelina shows up again later with hilarious effect in the companion/secondary series.

I really loved this series, and her other shifters. The new book, not so much.

I love the Pride series too. I’m listening to those, since they’re available on audio. I liked the new book, even though I don’t think she followed the mythology very well.

I loved this book and of course I love Ms. Laurentson. Now I want to re-read this book and the series. ^_^ Good review Melanie.

Thanks. I loved the crazy in this book. I loved when they put Nik in a zoo as a tiger. LOL. I still have a few Pride books left to listen to.

It is a great series. The women in it do the craziest things. I hope you enjoy.
Melanie recently posted…Review: Shadowed Threads by Shannon Mayer
i’ll be sure to check her out. I will never turn down the chance to have a good laugh.
Shelly Laurenston shifters are hilarious. She has this one and the Pride series. They are tied together, loosely. I highly recommend both of them.

This sounds like a good installment in the series. I like how Angie is happy to spend Nik’s fortune, but when it comes down to it, is willing to step up for her friend. Great review!

I’ve been wanting to read this series for quite a while, but I’m still on my No-PNR mood… 🙁
BookaholicCat recently posted…Early Review: The Taming of the Billionaire by Jessica Clare
I completely understand. I have this obsession with shifters that keeps me reading PNR. It is harder to find UF series with shifters. I’ve been mostly sticking to the authors that make me laugh. 🙂
Melanie recently posted…Review: Bitten by Noelle Marie
Love the humor, I really should try this series
kimbacaffeinate recently posted…The Art of Sinning by Sabrina Jeffries
Shelly Laurenston has great humor in everything I’ve read from here. There is this series which has 3.5 books and Pride series, which I think has 9 plus some novellas). Both are shifters with some character overlap between the two series. I still have a few left in the Pride series. I’m listening to them on audio. Thanks for stopping by.

This series has been recommended to me many times, but I keep skipping it. Wondering now if that was a mistake.

I love Shelly Laurenston. She is always great for a laugh. I listen to her Pride series set in the same world. These weren’t available on audio, so I read them. I highly recommend them if you are in need of a good laugh.
Melanie recently posted…Excerpt and Giveaway: Bound in Black by Juliette Cross
Laurenston definitely does know how to throw out those awesome one-liners, doesn’t she?!?
She has some of the best that I’ve read. I’m still trying to catch up on the Pride series. I have a three or four left. I’m spreading them out.
