Summary: Good, but not the awesome ending I was expecting
Review: I must say I was somewhat disappointed with this story. Yes, all the questions are answered but it just all seemed too hurried for my liking. Why do we hear about Grace's pregnancy through Anna looking out of a window? Don't you think the readers deserved to have heard first hand the dialogue between Grace and Ethan at such an important moment? It's good to see how much Seth has developed and his character is the only one that does develop throughout this triology, apart from Ethan's. We found Cameron swearing and cussing and we left him that way in the end. We found Anna being a pushy, know-it-all and she gets worse. Grace, who seemed like a strong woman in Rising Tides, barely had anything to say in Inner Harbour. And I was looking forward to some deep moving stuff about Philip but it just never materialised in this hurried love story, wanna-be family drama. I figured I would be in tears when the Quinn story ended but on a whole I was quite content to put the book down because it really didn't move me. And the ghost story, thrown in for good measure failed to impress, come on. We weren't born yesterday! Don't get me wrong. It's a good read, especially if like me you spent the last year with the Quinns. But it was missing something... I can't quite put my finger on it, but I know, it just wasn't there.

Summary: Have not been disappointed by Nora yet.
Review: Now it is Phillip Quinn's turn for Fate to play with. He meets his match in a high class woman who analyzes everything from people's behavior to how their surroundings effects them and then puts them into books. With two books in her background she is independently and financially secure. A city woman with modern gadgets. Phillip falls for her hard and fast. Phillip's other two brothers are now married. With them and their wives, they continue to care for Seth. Seth's mother is trying to blackmail more money out of the Quinn families. In this last book of the trilogy we finally learn the truth about Ray, Seth, and the abusive woman who raised Seth. Suddenly, Phillip's new lady friend turns out to have secrets of her own. Secrets which can destroy them all. ***A fitting end to the trilogy! I knew Phillip's story would be the best of the three. In my opinion, I was right.***

Summary: wonderful!
Review: The Quinn brothers are definitely my favorite trilogy. I have not read to many books that really revolve around males. They pulled me in and made me laugh and cry. Nora Robert's always keeps me hooked. I hope we will get another story of the Quinn's when Seth is ready for love.

Summary: Leaves you wanting more of the Quinn Family
Review: I thought that the "ICE" trilogy was the BEST ! But, Nora Roberts has out done herself with the Quinn Brothers. I just hope that Roberts finds a way to return to this wonderful family, perhaps when Seth gets older and perhaps more about Grace's daughter, Aubrey. Please ! Nora ! More, more !!

Summary: Captivating, Surprising, Insightfully Funny! What a *Joy*!
Review: As you read the final book in the trilogy of the Quinn brothers, you don't want it to end. Clearing their Father's name and getting guardianship of young Seth, 11, was their Father's dying wish. This trio of brothers and young Seth, a family that fate formed, struggles on, bonding solidly. As the last brother to enter the scene, Phillip Quinn demands attention in Inner Harbor and he gets it. He is young, ambitious and full of himself. He is also totally unprepared for Dr. Sybil Griffin, who ventures to their Chesapeake Bay town to supposedly to research for her latest book. She is already woven delicately within the Quinn's lives, though they don't yet know it. Dr. Griffin sets out to find out all she can about the Quinn's and Seth, as she ignites the passion in Phillip. His smartly intellectual and snobbish side comes into full play, challenged by the cool and collected Dr. Griffin. His senses and body are afire, and he has to explore this. As far as he's concerned, he has the perfect life, the perfect condo, the perfect job. Traveling to the seaside family home on weekends to help with raising Seth, takes him back to a past he'd like to forget. As he struggles with his memories against his growing affection for the boy, his life is up in the air. Watching Phillip Quinn finally fall in love, discover many new things about himself, along with the family secrets revealed, this is about as captivating as a book can get!!!

Summary: Fabulous!!!!!!!
Review: Absolutely Captivating!!! I couldn't put it down! But, then, what did you expect from the woman who brought us the MacGregors? Phil's story is not the best of the series, but it was still fantastic, and a marvellous ending to the the Quinn saga. Who would have thought he'd fall for...well I'll let you find out for yourself!

Summary: best trilogy books I have read
Review: I live in Baltimore and have visited the Eastern Shore many times. I read the first book in the trilogy by accident and enjoyed it so much, I could not wait to get the next two. Roberts has captured what life for some in Baltimore (or even other cities) might be and the life of those in a fishing village. The story of these brothers was so real and heartwarming and their wives were so loving and understanding. As I was reading these books, I felt as if I was actually there. I now hope to read many more books by Nora Roberts.

Summary: WONDERFUL BOOK!
Review: This is my first Nora Roberts book and it won't be my last. She is an excellent writer and has a definite way with words. Her characters are heart-warming but not the stereotypical romance characters. Anyone who likes a good read should pick this book up.

Summary: Couldn't stop reading until I completed triology in one week
Review: A wonderful afterglow feeling comes when you complete the triology set. Family pulling together against all odds. Feel for the abused children and admire them in their growth to overcome the past. It is the most compelling books I have read in a long time.
