Summary: Adoption Forms a Family Just Like Any Other!
Review: I enjoyed this book a lot mainly because it shows that adoption forms a family just like any family related through blood.Cameron, Ethan, and Philip were all troubled young boys who were adopted at difficult periods of their lives by Raymond and Stella Quinn. They didn't share blood, but they became a family unit. The family faces tragedy and scandal that will change lives. Cameron's lived the reckless life of a daredevil since leaving the quiet community on Maryland's Eastern Shore where Ray and Stella raised him and his brothers. He likes the fast paced life and fast women as well. Now he's been called home, not only to say good-bye to the only father he's ever loved, but also to face the challenge of caring for the last boy Ray was determined to save. Seth is a prickly young boy a dying Ray asked his sons to protect. Cameron ill have to put the life he has chosen on hold, and everybody has to make serious changes. A sexy social worker comes into the picture who has Seth's welfare in mind as much as Cameron. Anna Spinelli is full of challenges, especially since Cameron falls head over heels in love with her. This book was very very well written and hard to put down. I look forward to reading Rising Tides, which is next in the series.

Summary: Not-so-Swept-Away
Review: Nora Roberts is a terrific romance / mystery writer; however, this novel is not one of her best. I usually have no trouble getting caught up in her stories and characters, but this one left me flat. The characters were dull and what little mystery there was didn't pull me in. This one took work to finish. It is a weak start to her trilogy. Her other good stories have me expecting better from her.

Summary: Buy all three books in the trilogy together
Review: Sea Swept is the first book in the Chesapeake series. I intended only to buy Sea Swept, rather than all three books in the trilogy, because I wasn't thrilled with the last Roberts' trilogy that I read. My friend talked me into buying all three and I am so glad she did. I couldn't put them down and read them in quick succession. The backstory, three juvenile delinquents adopted into the same family, is very intriguing. A new boy has been adopted, the adoptive parents are both dead, and the three brothers must join forces to save this child. The hero and heroine, Cam and Anna, are vibrant, strong, exciting characters and the romance between them is charming. Cam's relationship with Seth, the new little brother, is very sweet and touching.

Summary: OK
Review: Even though I enjoyed Seth's storyline I just did not get into the romance between Anne and Cam I must say she is the first character of Nora's that thoroughly annoyed me. I think it may be because I have an aunt who truly is a social worker and know even second hand the realities of the job, I just found Anne to be bitchy and whiny. I did not enjoy her at all and she made it difficult to finish the book.

Summary: Got me reading again.............
Review: With a husband, house, job, two kids, and a slew of pets, plus a passion for cooking, there never seemed to be enough time to read. We took a weeks vacation and I picked up this book at the supermarket, looking for something to read during the road trips we were planning on taking. Well am I glad I did. It had been well over five years since I took the time to read something and thanks to this book, I was hooked, and haven't stop since. I read all three in this series, plus several others of Nora Roberts, and have even ventured out to other authors. This series is great, easy to read, keeps you hooked and the romance is great. I have to say I did enjoy this book the most out of the three but all are great. I read Inner Harbor in 3 days!! If you love romance, definately start here! Enjoy!

Summary: What I Thought!!
Review: I have read many of Nora Roberts books and this is one of the best I have read so far.. The way she captures the characters and the plot & the way it makes you feel and relate to it as well. I like the way she thrown 3 grown men with lives of there own and in the mist of things they try to raise a 10 yr-old boy who has serious problems to deal with. The way Cam relates to his brothers, the kid, Anna made me laugh alot cause he is the type to do what he wanted and that is it but trow a kid in it makes it interesting. When u read this book you will laugh, might cry a little, and wish why can't it be you with the romance...... it is a good read

Summary: I liked it but ...
Review: I really enjoy Roberts' family sagas, and this is no exception. However, is there no one out who has read these who recognizes that Seth's social worker cannot begin an affair with one of the men who is petitioning for guardianship without losing her social work license, her job, and any credibility she might have in court? This kind of behavior is grossly unethical and simply not permitted. If she wants to have a personal relationship with Cameron, she would have to remove herself from the case. And she certainly could not continue in the role of social worker, making decisions and recommendations about the boy's future, when she is for all practical purposes his step-mother. The ridiculousness of this part of the story undermined for me what was otherwise a very good read.

Summary: All the elements of a great story
Review: Nora Roberts has somehow managed to combine the best elements of what I consider to be a great story into this one book. Sea Swept has romance, family togetherness, siblings bonding, and so much more. The three Quinn brothers, plus their newest sibling, Seth, all adopted by Stella and Ray Quinn, seem to be so different in personalities that you wonder how they manage to stay together under one roof without killing each other! There is some really humorous writing in this book, I especially like the part when they were in the car on their way to the shops, or how the other two brothers call Cameron `Mummy' because he has to do the housework. I love stories where brothers fight all the time and these brothers are a classic right from the start. Their relationship with the youngest brother that has been adopted by their father is also really touching to read. I'd recommend fans of romance not to miss out on this trilogy. It is an extremely wonderful and satisfying read.
