Summary: SeaSwept is perfect summer reading!
Comment: SeaSwept is my favorite Nora Roberts' book. Actually, the entire Quinn Brothers trilogy is an excellent read (Inner Harbor, Rising Tides). SeaSwept introduces you to the Quinn family and in particular, Cameron Quinn. Ms. Roberts' male characters are always strong, sensitive men with an incredible sense of family and morals. Upon meeting Cameron in the opening pages of this book, he's what one would call a "player." But when called upon by his siblings during a family crisis, he comes through shining. It has always been the three Quinn brothers but a family tragedy brings about the possibility of there being a fourth Quinn that they had no knowledge of. SeaSwept is a familial story of strenghth and love and of the ties that bind fathers & sons and brothers to each other. As with each of the Quinn boys, they must come to face their past demons and ultimately, their present, as they each make their way into the future and join to affect the future of their youngest brother, Seth. It is an excellent read and is enchanced by the story setting of the eastern seaboard town in which it takes place.

Summary: Best Trilogy I've read! Don't miss these: they *grab* ya
Comment: Though I don't care for the title, knowing Nora could've done much better, this book quickly overcame that fault. Sea Swept is a novel written about a family of 3 adopted brothers-Cameron, Ethan, and Phillip, 11 year old Seth, and his social worker, Anna. The book is Cam's story, the famous daredevil son who likes fast boats, cars, and women. Cam has just won a famous boat race as he's notified his Dad is in a coma. As he returns, his Dad becomes coherent long enough to ask his sons to care for Seth. At the time of the accident, he was adopting Seth. The scene is set for shocking discoveries, as rumor has it Seth is Ray Quinn's child. Clearing their Dad's name uppermost in their minds, the three brothers take turns falling in love with young Seth. Each sees part of his past in the boy. You're caught up in the war of love and conflict here, and Nora Roberts makes sure you can step inside each character's shoes. The story unravels in surprising directions. I found the book exciting and captivating, the seaside a perfect backdrop for the tranquility needed during the tempestuous times and impending scandal. Anna is the center of attention, along with Seth, as she's surrounded by three virile, single brothers. You discover her heart-wrenching past as you're already her biggest fan. Taken in by her feisty, sexy, independent and honest to a fault personality, you are indeed *seaswept*...Watching Cam and Anna fight their obvious attraction, the the ways their love for Seth sneaks up on them both is genuine fun. Caught between their tangling and clashing one moment - and fiery passion the next, you are sucked in to Sea Swept without an ounce of resistance!

Summary: One of Nora's Best Trilogies!
Comment: The first novel, Sea Swept, introduces the story of three adopted brothers and how the deal with the loss of their father and the gain of another adopted brother. Therefore, to fully understand the situation and the developing relationship with the brothers, the series should be read in order: Sea Swept, Rising Tides, Inner Harbor, Chesapeake Blue.
The books take place on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Therefore, be prepared to read about the lives that accompany Maryland natives.
Each book in the trilogy tells the love story of one of the brothers, beginning with Cameron, the first boy adopted. The brothers have completely different personalities, which allows the reader to better relate to one brother of the four.
Cameron, the star of Sea Swept, is extremely outgoing with breathtaking looks. Before the events that take place in Sea Swept, Cameron's heart lied in racing and women. Now, he unexpectantly falls for a woman whose main goal is to make sure the new addition to the family (brother number four) is properly cared for and his biological mother does not interfere.
Rising Tides is my favorite book in the series, dealing with the shy but undeniably masculine brother, Ethan. He is the only one of the three brothers who decided to stay on the shores of the Chesepeake and care for his father. His life is immensely simple, spending his days as a fisherman on the bay. The love story that develops between him and his lifetime love is the most romantic of the series.
Phillip's story is developed in the third book of the series, Inner Harbor. This book is immensly important in the trilogy because a great number of unanswered questions are resolved during this story. Phillip is a hansome, well-mannered, businessman with a taste for fine wine and beautiful women. Not prepared to ever become a family man, a mysterious woman with a suprising background comes into town and steals Phillip's heart on first site.
The last book of the series, Chesapeake Blue, tells the story of the last adopted brother, Seth. Twenty years have elapsed since Inner Harbor. This was the perfect ending to a breathtaking series. In this book, you are able to see how Seth has dealt with his new surroundings and if he has been able to separate himself from his biological mother. The book also updates readers on the lives of Seth's three brothers and their families. Seth unexpectantly falls in the love with a new businesswoman in town. They develop a relationship as friends that blooms into undying love, respect, and compassion.
I highly recommend any romance novel fan to read this series. You won't regret the time spent!
