A stolen treasure, a sabotaged pie, and a town full of trouble…
Silverville’s St. Patrick’s Day is bigger than ever, thanks to Nana O’Shea’s Pot of Gold display at her brand-new magic potion shop, Celtic Moon Herbals. The centerpiece? Antique gold nugget boxes that just might form a treasure map. Most people think it’s just another of Nana’s tall tales—until the display vanishes.
Things go from festive to chaotic when the mayor’s famous Irish cream pie is sabotaged with body lotion, and security footage points straight to Nana. Anna Albertini steps in to defend her, but the missing gold, a town full of suspects, and a crime that makes no sense have her questioning everything.
Meanwhile, federal agent Aiden Devlin is back in town on a case he won’t discuss, and tensions between him and Anna are rising fast. Between nosy matchmakers, a rogue leprechaun fun run, and Nana launching her own mystical investigation, Anna has her hands full. But if she doesn’t get to the truth soon, Silverville’s charming St. Patrick’s Day may end in something far worse than a little bad luck.

Celtic Justice by Rebecca Zanetti The Anna Albertini Files series #7. Romance with mystery. Best read as as part of the series but can be read as a standalone. The town of Silverville celebrates St Patrick’s week, not just a single day. Fiona O’Shea, also known as Nana to the Albertini family, has a pie in the annual contest. She’s won the last two years, so it’s pretty much guaranteed she’s going to win this year. When her competition’s pie is tasted, it seems it’s been filled with a peppermint lotion straight from Nana’s new magic potion shop. More disturbing, a display from her shop has been stolen. A set of silver boxes with a map on the bottom to a long lost treasure is missing. The Sheriff is called to investigate the pie incident and the break-in at the shop. The whole family is ready to support Nana. Even Nonna Albertini. Who ruined the pie? Who stole the silver boxes? Who is the mysterious Irish man who seems to know everyone and wants a reward for finding the missing boxes? Anna is not waiting for the sheriff to figure it all out. She’s going to ask her own questions.
A fun return to the Albertini family with a bit of mischief and mayhem thrown in. A bit of intrigue and danger, a bit of laughter and sisterly support. And of course, Aiden wants to keep Anna out of danger but that’s just not her way. Engaging and lovable. A tight knit family plus a little mystery for chaos.
Well, here I am in the waning days of December 2025 reading a book set on St. Patrick's Day. The plot revolves around events that take place at the annual Silverville St. Patrick's Day Celebration, but really, you can enjoy this wonderful mystery with romance anytime, like after a stressful Christmas Season. Light and humorous with a side of mystery and a big meddling family, I love, Love, LOVE the Anna Albertini Series!!! More, please, Please, PLEASE!
Anna Albertini's Irish Nana, Fiona O'Shea, has won the Best Pie Contest two years in a row and has her sights set on Number Three. But someone has sabotaged the contest and fingers, and lawsuits, are pointed at Nana. It doesn't help that someone attempted to blow up her new shop, Celtic Moon Herbals, possibly to try and hid the theft of the O'Shea family antique gold nugget boxes which were on display. The boxes are pure silver and together they have a treasure map painted on the bottoms. Of course, the kids have done the treasure hunt thing and didn't find the gold. There is also a mysterious man, Cormac Coretti, interested in the boxes, or is he more interested in Anna's sister Donna?
Explosives make this a case for Anna's boyfriend, ATF Agent Aiden Devlin. Not that it means that Anna, her Italian Grandmother, Noona Albertini, Noona's detective agency, Three Hens Investigations, Nana O'Shea, and just about the whole Albertini - O'Shea family aren't getting involved. Welcome to the family, Devlin. He has more help than he needs or wants but Anna isn't going to leave this one alone especially when it involves family.

Something is also becoming clearer in their relationship. Maybe a wedding will appear in the next book. And I'm curious about this mysterious Cormac "Mac" Cornetii.😎 I'm looking forward to the next book, hopefully soon. In the meantime, I highly recommend the entire Albertini family chaos series. It's a fun, intriguing, and captivating read.
In my opinion, the story never really took off, but this book is saved by the secondary characters, especially the grandmothers. I didn't particularly like Cormac, he seems like a caricature of himself. Aiden and Anna remain one of my favorite couples, though.
La storia secondo me, non é mai decollata, ma questo libro lo salvano i protagonisti secondari ed in particolare le nonne. Cormac invece non mi é piaciuto particolarmente, sembra la caricatura di se stesso. Aiden e Anna restano una delle mie coppie preferite comunque.
📖Genre & Tropes📖 : romance suspens-ish x mystery plot x small town x some rom-com elements x cute lawyer heroine x sexy biker ATF hero x spicy but not too spicy
Un énorme coup de cœur pour ce nouveau tome des aventures d’Anna !!
J’avais oublié à quel point j’adorais cette série ! La famille Albertini est TELLEMENT amusante et attachante (JE VEUX ÊTRE ADOPTEE ET VIVRE LA-BAS <3) et dans le cadre de la Saint-Patrick, j’ai adoré voir tous les rebondissements de l’intrigue avec la grand-mère d’Anna, les vols, les complots, les explosions et bien sûr voir Anna mener l’enquête =D
J’ai beaucoup aimé la romance entre Anna et Aiden notamment parce que contrairement à la plupart des romances, même si ils sont un couple, il y a encore des tas de questionnement sur la façon dont ils vont pouvoir construire leur futur (en particulier avec le boulot d’Aiden) et j’ai hâte de voir comment toute cette histoire va se régler !
Même si Aiden reste mon favori, est-ce qu’on peut parler de Cormac aka le mystérieux et sexy peut-être ancien agent de la CIA reconverti en une sorte de chasseur de prime ??? MAIS JE VEUX UN TOME AVEC CORMAC ET DONNAAAAAA ><
Bref, une romance mignonne et tellement amusant que j’ai dévoré ! Vais-je relire toute la série en commençant par les nouvelles de Noël avec les cousins d’Anna ?? OUI OUI OUI !!
I absolutely loved this new installment of Anna's adventures !!
I'd forgotten how much I adore this series ! The Albertini family is SO funny and endearing (I WANT TO BE ADOPTED AND LIVE THERE <3) and, as part of the St. Patrick's Day celebrations, I loved seeing all the plot twists involving Anna's grandmother, the robberies, the conspiracies, the explosions, and of course, watching Anna lead the investigation =D
I really enjoyed the romance between Anna and Aiden, especially because, unlike most romances, even though they're a couple, there are still tons of questions about how they'll build their future (particularly with Aiden's job), and I can't wait to see how everything will be resolved !
Even though Aiden remains my favorite, can we talk about Cormac, aka the mysterious and sexy, maybe former CIA agent turned bounty hunter ??? I NEED A CORMAC AND DONNAAAAAA BOOK ><
Anyway, a cute and incredibly fun romance that I devoured ! Am I going to reread the whole series, starting with the Christmas stories about Anna's cousins ?? YES YES YES !!
St. Patrick’s Day has arrived in Silverville and their weeklong Irish celebration always starts off with a highly competitive Shamrock Pie baking contest. Anna Albertini’s grandma, Nana O’Shea, has won first place the past two years and aims to make it three. The crowd is shocked when judges discover that Freya Walton’s pie has been contaminated with Nana’s signature lotion. And Freya is pointing her finger straight at Nana!
I loved Celtic Justice! It delivers on the comedic absurdity that I have come to adore about the Anna Albertini series. This time, Anna’s grandmothers take centre stage. Nana and Nonna haven’t always been that fond of one another, have they? But with Nana O’Shea in the middle of a scandal involving pie sabotage and stolen nugget boxes from her new shop, Celtic Moons, Nonna Albertini is quick to step in with her investigative agency to help in any way.
Earnest and well meaning, but somehow a magnet for trouble? A tendency towards the ridiculous while still managing to be effortlessly classy? Ah, now I see where Anna gets it from. Imagine this. Anna sitting in jail (again), between her grandmothers, explaining to Detective Pierce (yet again) that it wasn’t her fault. It’s all so hilarious that my internal fun-o-meter exploded with confetti!
Although Rebecca Zanetti has already gifted us with a full cast of lovable characters who are as sexy as they funny, she succeeded in stirring my interest with one particular new addition. Cormac Coretti. Nana and Nonna each have a keen interest in his Irish and Italian halves respectively and he keeps showing up when Anna’s elder sister Donna is around. Who. Is. He?
For this mystery and more, keep reading. Celtic Justice reveals some good old-fashioned Silverville history that even Anna had no idea about, and there are some exciting developments with her Irish hottie, Aiden, that I wouldn’t want to miss!
Celtic Justice is the latest installment in the Anna Albertini series, and continues to be a good time. If you like romcoms with plenty of humor, and quirky characters, along with a bit of steam and romantic suspense, I highly recommend this entire Rebecca Zanetti series.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It’s almost St. Patrick’s Day in Silverville, Idaho, and Anna’s family is in rare form. Until her Nana is accused of sabotaging her competitor in the annual pie baking contest. And then Nana’s new lotions and potions store is attacked. And her beau, federal agent Aiden, is working on another case he can’t talk about. Attorney Anna is just trying to keep her grandmother out of jail, and everyone in one piece. But with stranger things happening on an hourly basis, including her feuding Nana and Nonna conspiring together, she has her work cut out for herself.
I had a great timing reading this book. It was the perfect palate cleanser between some heavier books. The plot doesn’t completely fit together for this one, but it doesn’t matter. It’s the characters and the humor that make this series so much fun. It’s a blast to sit back and watch what shenanigans Anna and her family can get up to while simply trying to help each other out. I also love the way Zanetti uses the rain as atmosphere here; it’s almost like an additional character, and I could almost feel the chilly, damp weather while reading.
If you love romcom and romantic suspense, you’ll have a great time reading the Anna Albertini series. Each story can be read as a standalone, but it’s great to see how the characters evolve over the course of the series. Anna’s extended family is filled with hilarious, quirky characters, while her relationship with Aiden has chemistry galore. Rebecca Zanetti creates a genre mash up with this series, and Celtic Justice is simply the latest bit of fun.
Every time I get the opportunity to go back and visit Anna Albertini and her zany, wonderful family, I'm thrilled. The cast of characters in this series has grown to the point where I don't even know who my favorite is anymore! It changes every time I read, I swear. Sometimes it's the grandmothers (Nonna and Nana) who are my inspiration in everything I do. Sometimes it's the sisters who are queens in their own right. Sometimes it's the men, from Aiden Devlin to Nick Basanelli to Detective Pierce to Clark Bunne to James Saber. Sometimes it's Anna herself, both for her legal prowess and her accidental troublemaking ways. When reading this book, it very well may have been the new face in town, Cormac Coretti (and yes, you're noting both Irish and Italian in that name, and trust -- Nonna and Nana have noted that too). Finally, finally, FINALLY Donna's getting a love interest, everyone!!!!!! Best news ever, truly.
I just want to live with these characters always. I'm so excited to see what comes next for this crew, especially for Anna and Aiden. I always wish that we could get more time with them, but Rebecca Zanetti knows what she's doing -- we're always left wanting just a little more, and it's for the best. I was always going to tune in for Book 8, but with the hints at what's next for our lovely couple, it's even more of a guarantee now.
I love the Anna Albertini series, and this book was no exception! Anna's newest case hits closer to home as she defends Nana. As is normal for Anna, she ends up in some interesting situations while trying to prove Nana is innocent. I loved getting to see more of Nana and Nonna in this book! Never fear, there is still lots of Aiden in this story too. It has been nice seeing their relationship grow as they fight to overcome some typical (and not so typical) relationship issues many people face.
Sabotaged pie, missing gold nuggets, stolen silver, leprechauns, and a new stranger in town, what else could possibly happen? Don't miss this installment in the Anna Albertini series. I'm hoping Donna and Clark each get their own books soon!
It's funny how crazy these books get. What made this one so funny was that Anna wasn't in the middle of things, it was her Nana and she was there trying to help her. And of course things started to get out of control and Anna ended up in the middle of the chaos.
When it came out who was the bad guy and why, I kinda laughed. I had started to get an inkling, but man...some hurts are deep, not sure I could have waited that long to try to get back at people.
It also looks like there might be changes ahead for Anna and Aiden. I hope he picks the choice that is there, it would be better for them as a couple, plus for us readers as you can only imagine the crap he would have to do.
It’s no secret I am huge Rebecca Zanetti fan. Stumbled upon the 2H of the Dark Protectors series then moved onto the Laurel Snow series. Somewhere along the way I fell into the Anna Albertini series and devoured them.
What I like about them is the combination of intrigue, humor, and a crazy cast of characters. I need another one right now !!! Anna and Aiden are a great duo and I want to see them have a forever HEA.
I loved how this story focused on Nana O’Shea and Nonna Albertini. These women are #goals so full of spunk!
Here’s hoping there are some more case entries in the Anna Albertini files.
Simply put: I adore this series and these characters. Every installment feels like coming home to Silverville, where chaos and charm walk hand in hand. This latest adventure is no exception: a stolen treasure, a sabotaged pie, and Nana O’Shea at the center of it all. This series is pure comfort and pure fun. Rounding up to five stars for keeping me hooked, making me laugh, and reminding me why I love these characters so much. Silverville is the kind of place I never want to leave.
🎶galway girl by ed 🎶Cosmic Love by florance 🎶 i will wait by mumford and sons
Another fun book in this series. This one has less shenanigans for Anna but more issues for her grandmother. Both her nana and nonna were fun and I enjoyed scenes with them in it. Lots of mystery popping up and pop twists but the ending wraps it up nicely. Action packed book that kept me hooked. The romance between her and Aiden progresses. I love their sexual tension and hot chemistry and sweet tender moments. I recommend this book and series. I’m excited for future books in this series.
I fell in love with Anna Albertini and her Irish and Italian families. Sisters, cousins, parents, grandparents -- I need this family in my life.
Nana has been arrested! The St. Patrick's Day pie contest is rocked by scandal. Anna and Aiden work together (well, kind of) to figure out whodunnit. There may be a touch of magic, mysteries to solve, and through it all: Family.
If I could give this book more than five stars, I would
Another fun addition to the series. Silly and engaging mystery.
Really enjoy that Aiden and Anna are all in for their relationship, but still trying to figure out how to make it work for them as a couple. Aiden is my favorite type of MMC, an alpha male who is secure and caring enough to let his FMC lead her own life. He will always try to protect but doesn't control those that are important to him.
I love all of Rebecca's series books but I think Anna is my favorite. This one was especially good and a lot of plots twists and the usual craziness. I so love Anna and Aiden together and Cormac is a great addition. I would rate it higher than five stars if I could. It is amazing to me that Rebecca can create so different and great series that keep you entertained. Keep up the hard work! I was hoping Aiden would propose.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I’m happy to say that this series remains fresh and interesting, here at book 7. The grandmothers are in the thick of things as trouble, legal and otherwise, multiplies. I did get just a tiny bit tired of the shtick. Feisty, trouble causing, no concern for the real problems they leave in their wake. Enough. I loved Anna and Aiden in this book; really dialing down the drama and settling in as a solid couple.
This was a wonderful story with so many twists. Anna has to find a way to prove that her grandmother is innocent in two cases. Aiden is there to help in every way possible. I like the idea of maybe a change of career path for him. I'm sure if he does change his career, things will be just as dangerous as always with trouble finding Anna like it does. I'm looking forward to the next book.
Celtic Justice is 💯percent fun! Anna & Aiden and their friends and relatives are a joy to spend time wih. This latest standalone story of Anna Albertini's adventures involve a poisoned pie and stolen family treasure during the week-long St Paddy's Day festivities. As always, there's a lot going on case-wise, fun family chaos, steamy times between Anna & Aiden, and a happily ever after. I loved every minute.
Oh my gosh, I love this story! Anna and Aiden will always be one of my all-time favorite couples! Nonna and Nana, hilarious! Everyone needs grandmothers like these two. I have always loved the support Anna has with her big family. Who is this mysterious Cormac Coretti!?! Is he good or bad? We must find out more about him. I really hope Donna gets a book. We have unfinished business!
I love REBECCA ZANETTI's books . Do writers use ghost writers who add their own style to book? This is the first time that I've given Rebecca a 4 star rating or skip ed ahead. Loved the story ,I look forward to Donnas story. and all the drama that only Anna and family can create. Highly recommend.
I owe the author an apology; I had written her previously complaining about the Nana/Nonna book take over. Now I get it; this one explained their past feud and history. And of course, it has the comedy antics we know and love with Anna. Now my only "complaint" is having to wait for the next in the series. Loved this one and love this series!
I love adian and anna they are so perfect fun and funny with so much love for each other. I want to be the grandmother's when I grow up they are so full of character, I like that there are some new characters in this book. It was a fast paced book with some turns I didn't expect it is definitely worth the read and can't wait for the next book.
The fight scene with the grandmothers was over the top “quirky”. There’s a line between fun to read and self conscious quirkiness that makes me roll my eyes. This series has been getting closer and closer to that line, and in this book, it went well over. I’m going to wait and read the reviews before I buy the next one. There’s only so much zaniness and amazingly beautiful family members I can take before I lose patience.
I’m a huge Rebecca Zanetti fan and I’ve even met her a few times at book events. No one hits a bullseye every time.
I really love this series. It has a little of everything. Humor quirkiness ,romance ,mystery . Love the Italian and Irish backgrounds mixed in. I can't wait for book #8!
Love Aiden and Anna. Zippy is a Great name for a character. Love that the grandpas and Anna’s dad had bigger roles in this book. Laughed, cried and enjoyed every minute . Wanted to solve the mystery but hate that it is over.
The gang is back! The sisters, the Italian and Irish family, the hot boyfriends. The grandmothers, Nonna and Nana, are the main culprits in this story, along with an evil leprechaun. You can't beat the action in this story!
Such great character building, story line and just an all around good read. Can’t wait for the next book in this series. Oh yeah and Aiden is really really hot!
