Blurb/Summary:

Wild Irish, Book Seven

The child who is born on the Sabbath day, is bonny and blithe and good and gay.

Sean Collins is happy working at the family pub and sharing a house with the woman of his dreams. He and Lauren are equals in every way, including in bed, where they burn the sheets. Life is good. Even if he must hide a couple of secrets to keep it that way.

Lauren is madly in love with Sean. They share everything—almost. She can’t deny sensing…something. A certain feeling when she, Sean and their friend Chad are all together. But she doesn’t press. How can she when she’s not being completely forthright herself?

Chad is feeling pretty miserable, and renting a room in Sean and Lauren’s home has only made it worse. In a house filled with secrets, Chad’s are doozies.

When an opportunity arises to explore their deep desires, the trio plunges into a sex-filled, emotionally charged ménage. Long-buried feelings are revealed, changing their lives irrevocably. Whether for better or worse, only Sean, Chad and Lauren can decide.

Review:

Any Given Sunday was an incredible story about trust and love. It was refreshing to see the back story spanned years and made the three main characters very good friends before becoming lovers.

We are introduced to Lauren and Sean as their relationship has just reached the next level. While all the time Chad is a main part of their lives; he is suffering from the love that he feels can’t be expressed or returned.

Everything comes to a head when Lauren and Chad, psychology students, are given some interesting research topics. Lauren wants Sean and Chad to help her explore the D/s dynamic with her as the submissive. The boys take it as a challenge not to let her down. Chad is excited because he finally gets to explore and express his feelings.

The chemistry between Chad, Sean, and Lauren just sizzles off the pages and will leave you breathless for the next Sunday. The D/s dynamic really brings forth the trust and friendship that they have all shared throughout the years.

The secondary family characters add some fun and whimsy to the story. However, the fun is never out done by the loving acceptance they all show one another. Mari Carr, set up a truly wonderful family model with the Collins Family.

This is a must read. For any Wild Irish fans, it’s another glimpse back into their world that you won’t want to miss.
