Law of the Irish

By Ezra Dawn

Mickey O’Rourke is the boss to Boston’s Irish mob. He’s vicious when it comes to business and protecting those he loves but he’s also a saint when it comes to doing things he cares about. Anything you can think of that’s illegal he’s got a hand in it. You cross him you get dead. End of story. No matter how tough he is though, Mickey still longs for someone that he can share his life with. Someone who isn’t afraid of him and doesn’t want to be with him for their own selfish reasons. Mickey has trouble within the ranks. Someone is out to get him and he doesn’t know who. Bringing in someone new is the best plan he’s got but will it work?

Justice J. Taylor is a special agent with the FBI. After three years of hard work on a case he’s suddenly pulled off to go undercover within Mickey O’Rourke’s organization. He thinks the idea is insane but his boss thinks it’s a terrific opportunity. No one knows what Mickey O’Rourke looks like let alone have any evidence to tie him to anything illegal so sending Justice in for valuable intel is the only option they’ve got. Feelings were never supposed to get involved. In the end, Justice will get a lot more than he bargained for when it comes to Mickey O’Rourke.

Ezra Dawn

Well Ezra isn't my real name obviously but I liked the name so I decided to use it. I live at home with my five dogs and one cat. I started out writing hetero romance novels but it wasn't where my heart lied. I adore all things paranormal and M/M is by far my favorite genre so I decided to start writing Paranormal Romances. There's a guaranteed happy ending with each of my books even if it may take some time for my guys to get there. I love each and every character on the page as if they were my own children. It sounds weird but that’s how I feel about them. ? I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember but only started actively pursuing it as a career three years ago when I decided to stop working in a salon and pursue writing full time. Since I published my first book in 2014 I have written and released nine other books with many more to come. My current list of projects is longer than my arm so I look forward to writing and creating new stories for my readers to enjoy ?

Justice J. Taylor

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a part of the Irish mob. I’ve always followed in my father’s footsteps even when I didn’t have any idea where those footsteps would lead. To me, my father was the greatest man in the world. He’d walk into a room and every person there would stop what they were doing just to greet him. He commanded respect. I remember thinking when I grow up, I want to be just like him. My father was the leader of the mob. The big boss. Nothing ever happened without his say so and if it did? Well, you’d better hope it was something he would’ve approved of and that he got his share of the profits otherwise you’d be at the bottom of a river somewhere with cement bricks tied to your ankles.

At eight years old, I began my journey into the mob. At first, I just followed my father around like a puppy. Where he went, I went. Then, one day we went for a walk and when we reached our destination my father turned to me and said, Son, one day all of this is going to be yours. You’re going to own Boston kid and I think it’s time you knew what that meant.

At thirteen I killed for the first time. The man was an accountant my father had accused of skimming off the top. By the age of seventeen I was fully immersed in the life. At eighteen my father was killed in a war between the families and I took over as the new head of the Irish mob. It’s been mine ever since. Now someone is making a play for my throne and I’m going to have to think outside the box if I want to find out who. It’s not going to be easy but it’s something I have to do. I refuse to let some asshole destroy everything my family has worked so hard to build.

We have to do something boss. These bastards are escalating. We’ve already lost two guys. How many more will we lose before you do something about it?!

I take a sip of my scotch and level Bruno with a glare. The idiot has always been a hothead. He’s good to have around when you need back up during a fight, but his brain is the size of a pea. I’d say he’s stupider than a rock at the best of times, but that would be an insult to the rock. Listen to me Bruno. I can’t just go off halfcocked like some rookie with a death wish. We have no idea who these guys are or where they’re coming from. I know we’ve lost two guys already and I’m sorry about that, but I’ve got people on it gathering intel. I can’t do anything without information and you know it.

He sighs and says, I get it boss. I apologize for disrespecting you like that. We all know you’re doing your best.

Apology accepted. Try to reign in that temper of yours yeah? I’d hate to have to kill you.

Bruno turns white as a sheet and nods. Yes boss.

I tilt my head towards the door and say, Get out of here then.

He makes a quick exit and I try not to laugh. My head of security walks in with a smile on his face. You shouldn’t mess with him like that. The man probably thinks you’re going to strike him down at any moment now.

I couldn’t help myself. It’s too easy. Did you see his face? He looked like he’d seen a ghost.

Callahan laughs and says, No offense boss but you’re a sadist.

I shrug. I take that as a compliment. Now, let’s get down to business. What did you find?

He places a file on my desk and says, It’s an inside job.

What?! That can’t be right!

I’m sorry boss but it is. I know how much you love each and every one of us but someone within our ranks is out to get you. I’m not sure why but I’ve got a few guys working on it. We’ll figure it out.

"You don’t think it’s because of that do you?"

He shakes his head. I doubt it. You’ve been out for a long time. Your father didn’t have a problem with it. Most likely because you’re even more vicious than he was so I doubt anyone would have a problem with it now. There has to be another reason.

Guess we’ll find out soon enough.

Callahan nods and says, What we need is a plan.

I think I might have an idea but it’s insane.

I’m listening.

You know there’s no one I trust more than you. You’re my second in command but you’re doubling as my head of security because I haven’t found anyone I want to put in the position.

He tilts his head and says, I’m not sure I understand where you’re going with this.

This is the insane part. What if we bring in someone new but qualified for my head of security? A fresh set of eyes on the situation might be just what we need. We’re too involved to see who is telling the truth and who is lying to our faces, so bringing in someone who is completely unattached is the perfect solution.

You’ve lost your damn mind. Bringing in a stranger for your head of security? That’s the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard!

But it could work. You spread the word and vet each applicant before sending them to me. I’ll make the final decision. In the end it’ll be about picking someone I’m sure I can trust. I know it’s insane, but you have to admit it’s crazy enough to work.

He sighs and says, Okay, fine, but we’re going to screen every applicant. That means, interviews, background checks the works. By the time I’m done with them I’ll know everything about them right down to their favorite breakfast cereal. If they pass my process, I’ll send them to you but only if they pass.

Got it. So, do we know what we’re looking for?

Well, we definitely want someone with some kind of training. I’m not leaving your security to some noob.

So, you’re thinking military background?

He nods. At least.

What else?

Well, I’ll look into criminal history. I’m not too worried about what they’ve done as long as it doesn’t involve sexual assault. I know how you feel about that sort of thing. We also don’t want a full-blown psychopath either, so I’ll look into mental health as well. Other than that, the screening process is just to weed out those we can trust and those we can’t.

I nod and say, "Sounds good. Spread the word. This might cause an uproar within the ranks so make sure those with issues about my
