Come Monday
After the death of her mother, Keira Collins became a surrogate parent to her six younger brothers and sisters, her own dreams put on hold. Now, at twenty-seven, she’s finally pursuing a college degree. Between classes, working at the family pub and still tending to siblings, she’s no time for romance. So why is she spending all her rare free time fantasizing about hot Professor Wallace bending her over his desk?
Ruby Tuesday
Teagan Collins has never aspired to fame and fortune. She’s content taking care of family, friends and neighbors, and singing in her family’s pub. Working on an album with Sky tests her patience…and her libido. The hot rocker plays her body like a fine instrument, their desire deepening with each song they write.
Waiting for Wednesday
Tristan Collins knows Lane Bryce is strictly hands-off. She’s smart, funny, kind…and married. But he still looks forward to her once-a-week visits to the family pub where he tends bar. When she fails to arrive one Wednesday, Tris is concerned. When he learns she’s in the hospital, brutally beaten after attempting to leave her unhappy marriage, he’s enraged. Tris vows to protect her, but doesn’t get the chance—Lane checks out of the hospital and disappears without a trace.
A year later, newly divorced Lane is back, and enjoying her independence too much to embark on a relationship. Tris intends to prove she can have freedom and love, and he’s not above using seduction to do it. The more she resists, the more he sets her body ablaze with a pleasure she’s never known.
Sweet Thursday
In high school, Lily was too shy to do anything about her feelings for her best friends, Justin and Killian. Now she’s ready to put to rest her regrets with a proposal that might shock even her oversexed friends—the three of them, together, one night, multiple positions.
K and J are more than a little surprised to see Lily at their ten-year reunion. The plain Jane they remember is now a stunning woman—who wants to have sex with both of them. Who are they to deny her?

This box set was so much fun to read! I loved each one of the siblings' s stories, there were all filled with humor, love, challenges and HEAs. I highly recommend that you jump on this set asap!
I believe if you don't have anything good to say then don't say anything. So I will not say anything about books 1&4. Books 2&3 are very good stories. I liked the characters and story. Good books.
4 stars I purchased Wild Irish Series books 1-4 by Mari Carr and this review was given freely. With titles centering around the days of the week and beginning with Monday, { Sunday was the mother who passed away} each book features one of the fun loving, close knit, protective and at times boisterous Irish American Pub-Restaurant owning Collins family members. The series feature the seven siblings from oldest to youngest and contains some wonderful family excerpts, a little suspense, a fair amount of steamy scenes,bondage, spanking,and menage. A lot of the storyline centers around the Collins apartment or business but it also branches out to include diverse themes such as student-professor, rock star, ex-military, virgin, crazy ex-husband, friends to lovers and more.
Come Monday by Mari Carr Beginning college at 28 after helping to raise her siblings, Keira is attracted to one of her professors, Wallace. Keira struggles with giving away control and make a life for herself not completely centered around her siblings and father in this first edition which contains an introduction to BDSM.

Waiting for Wednesday by Mari Carr This book features the bartending first of the Collins twin boys, Tristan and the married nurse Lane he fell in love with during her routine Wednesday visits to the pub. Some steamy encounters, an alpha male, the return of the crazy ex, and Tristan's father having a stroke are combined in a interesting and at times intense story.
Sweet Thursday by Mari Carr In this sequel,the second Collins family twin and retired soldier Killian along with his best friend Justin have taken over Justin's family's construction business. Reuniting at their 10 year highschool reunion with the third part of their high cliche Lilly results in the fulfilment of unrequited love but the three struggle with the thought of menage as a permanent relationship.

Come Monday (already read standalone, see separate review)
Ruby Tuesday Sweet story between Teagen, the Collins family resident singer and songwriter and Sky, a big-time rock star. The plot wasn’t the strongest, but the sex scenes were very hot.
Waiting for Wednesday I hate, hate, hate the woman-in-jeopardy-by-asshole-ex trope. Other than that, I enjoyed Tristan and Lane’s story.
Sweet Thursday Lily, Justin and Killian. I feel like this story could have been so much more. There is so much potential for the characters to do more than fuck and then agree they are in love.
Really enjoyed this box set for four of the seven Collins children. Each child is very different and therefore have varied love stories. They are a believable family who wrongly support each other. I will hopefully one day read these of their romances.
I loved this collection if the first four books in the Wild Irish series!! I loved meeting the Collins Clan. I am so in love with this family!! I can't wait to read the rest of the series and then move onto the Wilder Irish series next!! This is a must read. The stories are just the right length and this family dynamic is unbeatable!!
This is an addicting box set and once you start reading it was hard to stop until I read the last page of the last story in this box set! All of the stories are well written descriptive ones with characters that I easily connected with and was cheering on to finding happiness. Wild Passion was my favorite from the box set!
The Wild Irish crew provides a nice escape and an enjoyable read. While there is some angst throughout the stories, there is nothing too heavy--which I appreciate, as I use romance/erotica as a break from the challenges of life. The stories are sweet and the sex is hot, particularly if you like a little kink!
This was a good box set. I do love the Collins family. I love that they are so close and protect each other. Hopefully there is more families like this in the world. It was also nice to read a box set that was written so well and not filled with errors. Thank you for that. I enjoyed this box set.
Love this collection of books about the seven siblings of the Collins family. They are all unique in their own special ways. They are all loyal to the family.
3 stars I thought most of these books were okay. Some were almost good but all seemed way to short for any plot to develop. But I do want to know what happens to the other siblings so... Binge reading here I come!
This family shows you how falling in love should be done...in a variety of ways. Lots of ups and downs, curve balls and turmoil but each and every one leads to love. Loved them all. Each book is standalone with no cliffhangers.
The only thing missing was a gay couple. I like the collection a lot. It has this “when it rains it pours” thing going for it. I liked how the relationships were all different. They were all fun to read.
The Collins children have grown up and are falling in love. It is hard to stand out in a family of seven but each book is as individual as they are. Sexy times throughout.
Fun, humorous, compelling. What a hot family. Great read for St. Paddies day and beyond. Or whenever you like. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
Love this series, really considering buying the rest of the books. As to the reviews concerning the anal sex - it's not as bad as it sounds. The act was consensual and wanted, no persuasion needed.
Every character and ever story line had me hook, line, and sinker. Couldn't get enough of the Wild Irish family. My favorite is Killian, Justin, and Lily's story so far. Can't wait to read the next 3 books in this incredible series!!
A little hot but if you’re into a little harder sex scenes from time to time it’s a good read. It got a little hot in heavy in each box and not for the bubblegum crowd for sure.
It's been awhile since I've read any of these books. They're good reads for the most part, but they're mostly about sexy times. Not that I'm complaining, but I remember them as having more plot to them.
This is an entertaining series with strong characters, good storytelling, and nice pacing. Some readers might be put off by the violence in one of the books included in this collection, but still recommended for fans of the genre.
Collins family series, 4 books, each one was wonderfully written. Great character development and believable plot lines. Each story has a HEA, with bumps along the way.
Meet the four oldest Collins and the love/s of their lives. Each story reminds us that sometimes love doesn't come the way we expect but no matter how it comes you should total take that chance.
