Irish is a Standalone, second chance mafia romance with MCs >30. It's spicy with the audiobook is duet style with Maxine Mitchell and Joe Arden. 
This wasn't a 5 star for me because the Mafia plot had a lot of build up that very quickly ended and the angst/tension could have been a smidge more. Then the last 45mins - hour of reading, although wrapping up plot points, felt slow until the last couple pages. Still a great standalone.
