A while ago I gushed about {Fish Stick Fridays by Rhys Ford}, link to that review: https://www.reddit.com/r/MM\_RomanceBooks/s/HKB4FTR63n

I have now listened to their Murder and Mayhem duology, the first book being {Murder and Mayhem by Rhys Ford}. It's about a detective (Dante, 38) and a reformed cat burglar (Rook, can't remember his age but I think around 30). They have very brief and complicated 'work related' history and now, after many years, their paths cross again as people around Rook suddenly start turning up dead.

Again I was absolutely spellbound by the relationship. The honest communication, the vulnerability and the intimacy made my heart swell. The hurt/comfort, Rook fighting his inner demons, Dante showing him with words and every touch that he is worthy of love and commitment. And the whole time, no real relationship angst. I'm still feeling all swoony. 😍

Now, in the books Rook's cousin Alex is being mentioned, Alex and his cop boyfriend James (John, J-something). I might be projecting but I got the impression they might be MCs in their own story/series. I have checked out some of the author's other books but haven't found MCs by these names, but then I thought, maybe it rings a bell for someone on here.

Is it wishful thinking on my side or is there a book/series with these MCs? 

TIA! 🙏

I am trying to figure out if the Irish Roulette series by M.D. Gregory and Ki Brightly might be something for me. It's about four enforcers in the Irish Mafia and a professor specializing in organized crime. They end up saving the professor's life when the Italian mafia tries to kill him. The first book is {How did you survive without us by M.D. Gregory and Ki Brightly}.

I know it says it's MMM(+ ?) and poly but the blurbs and covers are confusing me. Is the MMM constellation changing/expanding through the books (and if yes, does that cause internal drama like jealousy)? Or are some of the books about interconnected MM couples?
