He won an hour with me from a stupid bet.

We were several shots of whiskey and two pints of Guinness in when Devin suggested we play his game.

That hour turned into the next morning.

Then, all hell broke loose.

I ransacked his wallet to find his identification card.

Our bliss disappeared into anger, hate, and accusations.

When he rejected me in that room, he didn't just leave me with a pounding headache and remorse.

He left me with a forever reminder of that night—the mix of two enemy bloods.

And now no one can ever know…including him.

Illicit Heir is book three of Mafia Wars Ireland. It’s a one-night-stand accidental pregnancy, secret baby, forbidden love, enemies to lovers, dark mafia romance.

Illicit Heir by Maggie Cole is a dark mafia romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Jacob Morgan and Alyssa Avery. This is the third book in the Mafia Wars Ireland series.

I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Devin and Lauren. It was extremely messy, but you couldn't help but root for them to be together. I liked that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

I can't wait to dive into the next book in the series Illicit Monster so I can get Tynan and Maeve's story.

Jacob and Alyssa did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you're looking for a dark romance, mafia romance, enemies to lovers romance, or secret baby romance.

Illicit Heir drew me in immediately. I love the family dynamics in this series. The brothers with their different personalities and getting to know each one better in their own stories has been interesting. This one was about Devin and his curiosity led him to bartender/family business Lauren. The story has a few of my favorite tropes dark mafia romance, accidental pregnancy, one night stand and enimies to lovers. How can you not eat this up? Every interaction they shared left me smiling whether it was the flirting mostly Devin or the good banter between the two, I could not tear myself away from this story.
The plot itself kept you wanting more, like what now, what's going to happen next? However at some points I was a little frustrated but that was due to annoyance with Lauren's mom as I never understood her loyalty. She spoke of how she loved Lauren but to me it never really showed. She just complicated her situation even after being asked several times to not get involved. The only other thing that had me annoyed was the amount of time that past before the HEA. I know it was needed for the storyline however I was so anxious for these two to just be together.
Narrator selection was impeccable. Jacob Morgan can never do me wrong and whenever he throws on that Irish accent forget about it. SWOOONNNN!!! I always feel like he draws me in not just lost in his voice but he pulls me into to the story. I see it as if it were a movie and that's what I love about a good audiobook. I do not believe I've listened to Alyssa Avery narration before, however, I was also intrigued and immersed into the story even more if possible. I often am pretty specific with my woman narrators but she was amazing. I enjoyed her as Lauren and she really made me feel her emotions the anger, the fear and the happiness. That is what you want from a good narrator to make you feel what that character is feeling . Will definently add her to my list.
All in all this book is 5 stars for me and the spice, the spice, Daddy Devin....yes please! This isn't a story that's like sexy time all the time but when it happens it will leave you thinking about it even after. Listen now if you haven't.

All in a DAY!!!

I'm so glad I added audio to the mix! It was worth every minute!

I love Lauren Byrne, even when she's rationally irrational. She asks for her desires to be met, she takes necessary steps to preserve herself and her future, and she doesn't back down from making some really hard decisions.

I love when Devin goes all alpha. I also absolutely love how he reacts to the news about Lauren that's shared. 💙 He went from being fourth on the list of love for O'Connor siblings to top of the heap, with Bridget in second.

There's one thing that drove me a little bonkers. I don't get why Devin doesn't do a better job of muzzling Tynan on occasion. For a charmer, he isn't very good at reading the room. 😱 I expected, and still demand, that Devin would give him a real blow to do a better job of bringing him in line. It's not as if either is a young, dumb twenty-something to excuse the man-child behavior.

The narrators, Jacob Morgan and Alyssa Avery, are terrific. I loved their voices and accents! 💙🎧 🇮🇪 Duet narration is the only thing that could've made this better.

The narrators expressed the emotions of the characters soooo well! This was a spicy, action packed mafia story and unlike Ive ever read before. I loved how the characters were combative and didn’t ever backdown. The heroine was strong as hell and I absolutely loved her. Sometimes I get annoyed with decisions that the heroine’s make and this time I loved how she knew what she needed to do and was strong as hell to do what she needed to do in every situation. I want to hear more about their HEA! And I rarely want that!

Action packed

Perfect Narrators for Irish Mafia Wars (3)

So much potential with this book but when down to the last three hours of the book, only Jacob Morgan kept me going. The female narrator drove me nuts… she talks like her teeth are glued together or she’s got a large dip of chew in her mouth. The other problem was believing the two MC’s got so serious after two non-consecutive nights together despite being family enemies made the drama too much but droll and unsurprising. Too bad since Jacob Morgan with an Irish accent is basically ear porn.

Had potential

Wow!! Just all I can say...Another exciting, suspenseful, mafia story from Maggie Cole. This continues the O"Connors And the O'Leary Irish mafia war.
Devin O'Connor has met his match with Lauren.She's a spitfire,, independent, who caught Devin"s eye at the bar. He knew he was in O'leary territory, but went after her anyway. It was one hot, sexy, steamy night that neither one would forget.
Caleb O'Leary, head of his clan, considers Lauren belongs to him. Lauren has no allegiance to him. She knows he is dangerous, ruthless, soul less. When he wants something nothing will stop him from getting it..Murder, revenge, bullying, and threats. Lauren knows he will follow up on those threats.
Devin is determined to find her when she disappeared. He knew he had to find her before Caleb O'leary did. Wonderfully written , that kept me on the edge of my seat throughout this story.
I can't say enough about Jacob Morgan and Alyssa Avery exceptional narration. I could feel the anguish, intensity, anger, despair in their performance. Very well done!

Wow
