He wants so much more than just her music…Bad boy rocker Sky Mitchell wants to buy Teagan’s song. Only it’s not for sale.Neither is she, but that doesn’t stop him from challenging her to a contest, a game of winner take all.Ruby Tuesday is book two in the Wild Irish series by New York Times bestselling author Mari Carr.
In the second book in the Wild Irish series, Teagan Collins is the singer and songwriter of the family, and she loves performing at her family-owned pub. Though she knows a world famous rock star is in the house, she doesn’t listen to his music and performs her set without a care. That is, until said rock star offers to buy her latest song and challenges her to a contest.
Sky Mitchell has lived and breathed music for years with his band The Universe, but wants to break out into a solo career. He’s hiding out in Baltimore to write songs for his new album and goes to a pub in order to relax. There he meets Teagan. She fascinates him, and he wants to record her song as much as he wants her in his bed.
Teagan and Sky are fun characters. He’s used to screaming, adoring fans, but she treats him like a normal person. He loves it! They share a love for music and start writing songs together, and soon their casual sexual relationship turns into so much more.
The Collins siblings play a bigger role is this story than they did in book one, and it was great seeing them and Pop again.
I really wish there would’ve been an epilogue to show Sky and Teagan’s future in the music business. Without it, there are some unanswered questions, but I can imagine what will happen next.
I really enjoyed this story and will look for others in the series.

Loved this story about the rock star Sky Mitchell and folk singer Teagan Collins. This is the second story in the series of the Irish family. Both of these characters were likeable, there was great humor in the book, some suspense, and some spanking. I’m looking forward to reading the stories of the rest of the family members.
OMGee! I love book 2 in the “Wild Irish” series! It’s my favorite so far. Okay, so I have only read books one and two, but it’s still my favorite.
I love Ruby. She is a very kind and giving person who thinks of others before herself. She is also a homebody, who loves her family and is a little uncomfortable with change. I relate a lot with Ruby.
Although, I can’t sing or play and instrument. Ruby has a chance encounter with a famous rock star and her life changes in a big way. She manages just fine with all the love and support of her family.
“Ruby Tuesday” is packed full of emotions and you might want to keep a tissue handy, too.
Can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
Happy Reading:)
This book rocked! Pun intended. A relatively realistic plot, witty and intelligent dialog, a cast of characters that you fall in love with and melt your mind passion between Teagan and Sky. I couldn’t put this one down!

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.
Ruby Tuesday by Mari Carr
The second eldest sister and redhead dreamer, folk singer, and pub waitress Teagan becomes embroiled in rock star Sky’s plot of becoming a solo artist gone bad. Contains some suspense and some steam scenes with light bondage/spanking.
Loved the characters and the laughter in this story. .
This was a fun read, but this is a series that should definitely be read in order.
Music
This second book brings the love of music to the couple. She has her mom’s talent but doesn’t want the stardom, he makes a living from being a lead singer.
Rushed adolescent romance disguised as an adult contemporary romance. I woud not recommend.
Charming. Beautiful. Lovely. What a book!
Enjoyed reading this book.
Really liked this book. Was easy to read and not your typical Rock Band theme
Have to read the whole series great read
Nice book for light summer reading

I love this author…easy reading.
real romance
Romantic HEA for the hero and heroine.
Teagan is a singer and songwriter but she just performs in her family’s pub, the nursing home, and teaches music to preschoolers. Sky is the lead singer of a band. He is hiding out in Baltimore to write songs for his upcoming solo album. He hears Teagan singing a song she wrote and offers to buy it from her. She refuses to sell and he places a bet, they will have a singing competition and if Sky loses he donates the money he makes at the concert in town to the nursing home. If Sky wins he gets Teagan’s song and she helps him write some songs.
When the paparazzi finds him, the Collins family sneaks him and Teagan out where they go to a friend’s cabin for a couple of weeks. But someone has found them and destroyed Teagan’s guitar from her mother. They set a trap to find out who’s trying to stop him from leaving the group.
Rockstar and a hippie dressing woman. The voice of an angel and the body to go with it. Funny. Very sexual. And a big Irish family. A rocker who realizes there’s more to life than casual sex and rock n roll.
Great book
