Special Agent Finnegan
Love for his father makes a man weak - what’ll happen when he gives his heart to a woman?
When Special Agent Finnegan O'Reilly gets shot, and the news brings on his father’s heart attack, he decides to take leave from further undercover assignments. The O'Reilly has suffered enough and Finn can’t be the cause of more distress for this beloved old rascal. Then his boss forces one more case on him - to take place in their own pub. Acting as the target to expose serial, suicide killers rampaging through New York City, Finn must play the part of a wife-beater, a cheating husband and an all-time jerk. No problem, until he meets his make-believe wife.
Renée Knight enjoys her job as a New York City cop. Her disguises have become a permanent fixture in her life, and no one knows what she really looks like. Except for the father she loves fiercely… the man, whose suicide makes no sense. If it means going undercover in an Irish pub where the culprits hang out, she’s their girl. Playing the wife of the bar owner to catch the killers—easy. But they never intend for her to fall for this guy, she does this all on her own. Now she has to hire the assassins to arrange his suicide. Can she catch them, before they complete the mission?

I received a complimentary copy of this book as a part of a book tour for a fair and honest review and rated it 4 out of 5 stars.
A romantic suspense filled with plenty of action and steamy chemistry, Special Agent Finnegan is the first book I’ve read by author Mimi Barbour. Colorful characters, good dialogue and two separate mysteries kept me turning the pages to uncover what would happen next. Set in New York City, Ms. Barbour reminds us of the dedication and sacrifice law enforcement agents take to keep the rest of us safe.
On leave from the FBI due to an injury received in the line of duty, Finnegan O’Reilly is unsure what his future holds. Guilt over his father’s heart attack, and having to shoot a youthful suspect, Finnegan thinks it might be time to change careers. Summoned back to work early, he finds himself reluctantly agreeing to take on a new undercover assignment that will take place in his family’s bar. Trying to catch a “serial suicide killer”, has Finnegan pretending to be married to a New York City detective, falling in love was not a part of the plan.
Undercover at a local college, Renee Knight is determined to catch a rapist who grows bolder with each attack. She’s also determined to get the local FBI to declare her father’s “apparent suicide” a homicide. Attracted to an agent she keeps “running” into while talking with her dad’s friends, Renee is pulled into a joint investigation with the FBI and finds herself posing as the agent’s “wife” and working in his family’s pub. Falling for Finnegan O’Reilly was not a part of her assignment.
Ms. Barbour does a good job developing both main characters; Finnegan and Renee have just enough in common to make a relationship between them believable while their differences make them attractive to each other. Both dedicated to helping their fellow man through law enforcement, they approach their jobs with an attitude that will not accept failure. While Finnegan is dealing with guilt over having to kill someone in the line of duty, Renee looks forward to getting a chance to maybe giving a violent offender a taste of his own medicine. I easily connected with both characters and found their steamy attraction to each other believable and hot!
The secondary characters are well developed and I fell in love with Finnegan’s dad, Collin O’Reilly aka The Joker and The O’Reilly. He’s funny, loveable and reminded me a bit of a jolly leprechaun. Both Finnegan and Renee’s bosses are dedicated to their jobs, driven to succeed and care about their agents. The “criminal masterminds” are also well developed and are an interesting mix; both evil and cunning, they are successful because they are determined to stay out of jail and have really thought out their crimes.
Will Finnegan and Renee be able to catch the “serial suicide killers” and bring them to justice? Will their steamy romance last beyond this particular case? You’ll have to read Special Agent Finnegan to find out. I enjoyed it and I think you will too.

I enjoyed this book. Finnegan and his father are so funny together. Finn has been undercover for a long time, but got shot and had to recover. His poor father had a heart attack when told about Finn. Now Finn is thinking about retiring from the FBI. There is someone killing people and making it look like suicide. Unfortunately Renee, who is a city cop, found her beloved father killed by the suicide killer. She is heart broken, and wants her uncle Jack who is heading up the FBI investigation to let her in on the sting. The one clue they have has something to do with the pub his father owns. Renee and Finn have to work together in the pub to try and find the killer. I enjoyed watching the two get to know each other. I loved how Finn is so protective of the lines he loves. I encourage you to read the book.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Coming from opposite ends of the spectrum, Finnegan, an FBI agent on leave after being shot is taking care of his father's bar after his father's heart attack, and Renee, a New York city cop, working undercover at a college to nab a serial rapist, these two meet in the middle in an attempt to set-up killers for hire. Renee, insisting to an old family friend (Finnegan's boss) that her father would never have committed suicide, threatens to investigate herself if something isn't done. I loved the fact that Renee wore so many disguises no one knew what she really looked like. Finn and Renee keep running into each other for brief periods of time increasing the level of sexual tension. Finn, struggling with his future plans which might not include the FBI, is flung into this investigation as the only lead seems to be his father's pub. Brought together in a joint investigation, our couple develops a plan to trap the killers. The plot, and sub-plot, were well done, a few nice twists really upped the overall suspense level. The writing was enjoyable making this a very easy read. The characters were very engaging, and the secondary characters, especially Finn's dad, were well-fleshed out. Except for Finn's boss' boss (the big boss), I found his one appearance a little out of whack, and his anger over the top. It just took me away from the story for a couple of minutes trying to figure out what his problem was. On the whole, a well-written, fast-paced, romantic suspense story. I think the way the plot and characters were fleshed out took this from a four star to five star book for me. Let me just add to those who are looking for it, there is no graphic sex in this novel. I'm looking forward to reading more from this author.

OMG, Irish cops and FBI centered around a neighborhood Irish bar complete with an old curmudgeon keeping an eye on things.
Let me just say that I discovered book one of this series, Special Agent Francesca, a few years ago and fell in love with the characters and the story. Many rereads later I was overjoyed to find there was a book two and hopefully a book three this spring.
This story has it all: a hot guy who knows his way around behind a bar, a sexy undercover agent with a penchant for disguises even when she's not working, humor, a great story and a wonderful ensemble cast for backup.
Highly recommended :)

What an incredible story. There are two undercover cops trying to flush out a serial killer who made the murders look like suicides. The plan is for the female cop to act as though she hates her husband (the male cop). That isn't too hard to pull off because she is making him out to be a cheater and wife-beater. They play out these scenes in the man’s bar since that is where the killers appear to find their “clients”. They hope the woman will be contacted by the killers and make her an offer she won't want to refuse - getting rid of her husband. Even though that puts her partner’s life in danger, they both know its part of the job.
I love police stories and especially undercover ones. But for the main characters to fall for each other when they have to act like they hate each other makes this story even better. This is a gripping suspense as well as a terrific romance. You can feel the emotions in this book. Especially the love between the main characters and the strong affection Finn and his dad have for each other.
If you like romantic suspense, you won’t want to miss this book.

I received this book free as an ARC reader for review.
Agent Finn fell in love with a dimple!
This was an odd book. It really felt like it had two completely separate parts. I know the first part was designed to let you get to know the characters and for them to meet each other but what could’ve been accomplished in a chapter or two took almost half of the book... and it was a bit of a slog.
Then, at about 46% through my e-book, the characters actually started to interact with each other and a story seemed to take off. Then I felt like it skipped a bunch. Two people who had pretty much just met were all of the sudden in a passionate relationship, all kissy and emotional...It was odd. I actually went back and looked to see if I had missed something. The action was OK, basically the same scene repeating. That poor girl really needs to invest in some nice scarves. There’s no explicit sex, But lots of passion and some very stereotypical “claiming” by a typical alpha male. I think Papa O’Reilly, called Joker was probably my favorite character. Talk about a caricature of an Irish pub owner!

Suicide Killers
This KU library selection takes place in NYC, where undercover FBI agent Finnegan O'Reilly is helping out at his father's Irish pub while the man recuperates from a heart attack. Finn's boss wants him back on the job, but Finn says no until the op becomes personal.
Renee Knight, undercover officer with the NYPD, and a master of disguise, is currently working uc to capture a brutal rapist on a college campus. She still struggles emotionally with her father's untimely death, an apparent suicide. But Renee believes he was murdered and she has been hounding her boss to investigate, to look into whether a serial killer could be behind his death. So when her boss presents her with the opportunity to go uc in an Irish pub to try to catch the killer, Renee willingly takes the job. What she doesn't count on is her attraction to the FBI agent playing the role of her husband.
I enjoyed this book quite a bit more than book one. The mc's are likable, the setting and storyline are well developed, and it's an easy book to get lost in. I've already bought the next book and am looking forward to beginning it.

In so many ways, this series reminds me of a written version of the Lethal Weapon movies. There’s the heavy law enforcement presence, the silly, loving family and friends, and the twisty little mystery with lots of action and suspense. I love that Renée is so fierce and independent. What I love even more is that her tough outer shell hides a vulnerable heart with the consistency of gooey marshmallow. And Finnegan is her mirror image with his own tough-as-nails persona and gold-plated marshmallow heart. Even more than I loved watching this pair interact with each other, I adored seeing the time spent with their friends and family. Those connections are where this book really came alive for me.
December 10, 2019
I received this book for an honest and voluntary review. Finn O'Reilly is leave from the FBI, to run his father's Irish pub while The O'Reilly recovering from a heart attack. Renee Bishop is an undercover officer for the NYPD. So undercover that no one knows what she really looks like. These two are teamed up to investigate a bunch of questionable suicides, all have one thing in common Finn's family bar. Finn struggles with coming off his LOA and Renee has another case that she needs to tie up first, which is interesting and the reader as well as Renee thinks she's got the perp figured out until the very last minute. This is the second book in the FBI undercover series, but a complete standalone.

A little Irish love:
Another fast paced, action packed romantic suspense novel by the talented Mimi Barbour. It grabbed my attention from the very beginning and had me frantically turning pages to see how it would all turn out. There was humor and witty banter but it also had a depth to it, especially surrounding the issues of domestic abuse.
Finn and Riley were both likable characters and it was fun seeing their relationship develop into something long lasting. I particularly loved the elder O'Reilly, what a card he was! I would have liked an epilogue but overall this was an enjoyable, easy read.

BOY, IS HE SPECIAL !!!!
This story grabs you at the beginning and never let's go. We start with a murder, we see how the killers do the deed and why they are so difficult to catch. One girl cop and one FBI guy set up a sting operation to catch the murderers. The writing is superb, you can feel the excitement and the scared feelings right along with the characters. I probably will be reading more from this author. I did get this book for free and am leaving a voluntary and honest review.

I enjoy the first book enough that I thought I would try the second. I enjoyed this one just as much. I did discover this series really can be read in any order. The only thing they have in common is undercover FBI. The New York characters in this book were not the same as the New York characters in the first book. That kind of surprised me, but no big deal.
I found this story a bit more 'thrilling' than the last one. No big surprises though not entirely predictable either. A nice mix. Again, I found myself enthralled with something I didn't want to put down. Nice job.

Another wonderful story in this series by Mimi Barbour. She writes stories with lots of heart, action and love. Finn is a strong and sensitive character. He feels things, and loves deeply. He is loyal and dedicated to the people in his life. Renee is a cop who is dedicated to to protecting people. She hates injustice and can’t help stepping in when she sees someone being hurt. The two get together to work on a case and can’t help but fall in love. Collin, Finn’s dad, is another character you will not be able to help falling in love with. A great page turning read with excellent characters.

Special Agent Finnegan (Undercover FBI Book 2) by Mimi Barbour is a read that will have
you on the edge of your seat. I enjoyed the first book and Mimi did not let me down with this
second book in the series. What happens when a sexy Irish FBI agent is partnered up with a
cop who has a love of disguises? I love the quirkiness that Mimi installs to her characters
and they make for some funny and explosive moments. With plenty of action, thrills and
spills and romance for our characters this is one journey you will enjoy whilst they try to find
the killers wreaking havoc in their town.

This my first book to read by Mimi Barbour. It did not disappoint. Great story and great characters, Kept me turning the pages. The opening chapter really sucks you into the story with professional killers that stage the murders as suicides. The two main characters go undercover as a married couple that hate each other, yet in real-life the chemistry between them is off the charts. If you like suspenseful, undercover, investigative-type books, you will like this one!

Loved this story! The suspense is amazing throughout this story. Renee likes to wear wigs and colored contacts, but when Finn runs into her three different times, he recognizes her and can't seem to forget her. When they get paired together to solve a case, the sparks fly. It is a wonderfully written story that keeps you interested in what is going to happen next from the very first page. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

He had had enough of the covert operations, especially after his father's near death experience, from a heart attack, when he had been told his son had been shot in the line of duty.
She was a NY cop, who had lost her father in what looked to be a suicide, but a number of factors pointed to foul play.
Together they were set to find out those causing death and mayhem, making it look to be suicide in each case.
Interesting read!

Another great read by Mimi Barbour
The 2nd book in the Undercover FBI series, Special Agent Finnegan is a fun read that keeps you on the edge of your seat while Finn and Renee work together undercover to find a pair of serial killers and fall in love with each other at the same time. Even though this book is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.

Mimi Barbour has a way of making you fall in love with her characters, especially the "Joker", the old man in the story. She defines her characters with such outrageous quirks, like a heroine who wears wigs!
Plenty of action and suspense mixed in with the satisfying romance for a fun and endearing couple! I truly wanted to read more about this couple after the story ended.

Great read.
Loving this series! This story is full of intrigue, it looks at abuse and the different aspects of helping people through difficult times. Finn and Renee work together in an undercover operation that is intriguing and action packed. Their chemistry sizzles. The story has wonderful deep characters and everyday heroes who stand up for those in need.

This is the second book in the Undercover FBI series and was well written. Renee and Finnegan have sizzling chemistry. Their banter was hilarious at times to read. This has action, danger, a serial rapist and so much more. The characters are strong, protectors and you can't help caring for them. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

New binge author for me.
I read Mimi Barbour's first book in the series and enjoyed it so read numerous 2 and now I'm hooked. The characters were a blast, you do kinda have to go with love at first sight ( or darn near close to it), these two know what they want and don't play games, aside from needing the occasional confidence boost. Heading off for book #3.

What a joy to read!
This book was such a joy to read. Renee is such a kick arse cop that doesn't like to look the same for all her undercover work and so has a bit of a thing for wigs. Finn is a FBI agent that ends up pairing up with her for a case and maybe for more.

Interesting story. Murders made to look like suicides in a very convincing manner. Then special agent Finn and New York City cop Renee decide to set up a sting in the bar that Finn's father owns and end up falling for each other. Keeps you guessing till close to the end.
