Customer Reviews

Loved all four books about the Quinn brothers.

I love the books that Nora Roberts write but the Quinn brothers was exceptional. I enjoyed all four books they are the kind of books that you can't put down. A story of a family with problems and how they dealt with them. I hated to finish the last book. I so enjoyed all of them.

Awesome series, but this is only the first two books

When I saw the title "The Quinn Brothers" I thought it would include all four of the books so I was amazed at the price. When I purchased it I was sad to see it was only the first two. Oh well still a great price even for just two books, I just thought I would let others know in case they thought the same as I.

Quinn Brothers

Nora Roberts is a favorite author of mine. This series was just wonderful.

Wonderful Beginning of a Heartwarming Series

This series (a total of four novels) reflects the story of the Quinn Brothers and the setting is the beautiful harbor of Maryland's coastal Chesapeake Bay - Cameron, Ethan, and Phillip (Seth came later after Stella had died). Not blood brothers, but broken, sad and damaged boys all adopted at different times by Ray Quinn and his wife, Stella. The first novel, Sea Swept, tells Cam's story and takes us through his journey with the social worker, Anna Spinelli, assigned to the case of Seth DeLauter, the boy Cam's father took in off the streets before he died in an auto accident. The family focus of the men and the plot that develops through each of their personalities is amazing. They all work together to hold onto Seth (and abide by their father's dying wish) even though there is mystery and question as to his heritage relating to their father. They restructure their lives and begin their boat building business - "Boats by Quinn" - and through it all discover that the bond they have with each other that was started by Ray Quinn, is only stronger as time goes on. This is a fantastic story and each novel tells the story of another brother. Rising Tides takes us through Ethan's life and tortured past and his struggle to continue on, help bond and accept Seth in his life and try to dismiss the ghosts of his past in order to make a future. Grace Monroe and her daughter Aubrey are the keys to unlock his struggle, however, he has a very difficult time accepting them into his life. Grace is a very strong and lovable character and the reader is just pulled right into the whole family so much that you feel a very big part of their closeness. Go out and begin reading - you will not be disappointed!
