Publisher's Weekly

January 4, 1999
This is the final installment of Roberts's juicy Chesapeake trilogy--one volume for the romance of each of the mighty Quinn brothers: Cam, Ethan and, now, Phillip, the bronze god whose Italian suits hide the scars of bullet holes on his chest. Like his brothers, Phillip was a tough street kid who was rescued and adopted by Ray and Stella Quinn. After the deaths of their adoptive parents, the men have come together in the bay town of St. Chris, Md., to build boats and raise Seth, the last abused kid Ray took in before he died. Phillip, whose plans include women but not much love, falls for Dr. Sybill Griffin, a repressed academic who studies social groups so that she doesn't have to participate in them. As Phillip messes with her well-ordered agenda, she tries to keep secret that she is Seth's aunt; when discovered, she sets out to make amends for his terrible mother. With bright dialogue and lots of heart, Roberts provides a safe harbor for Phillip and Sybill--and for her many fans.

The long-awaited conclusion to the Quinn brothers trilogy, which includes" Sea Swept" and "Rising Tides," can easily stand on its own. Urbane Phillip divides his time between his work as a Baltimore advertising executive and his hobby as an Eastern Shore boatbuilder, deliberately burying all traces of his troubled youth until the arrival of a woman and a 10 year-old boy. The woman, Dr. Sybill Griffin, may be out to destroy his family, and the boy is Seth, Philip's adoptive brother, the one he promised his dying father he would raise as his own. Philip is soon infatuated with Sybill, a psychologist and best-selling author who claims to have come to the small town of St. Chris to do research. But her subject turns out to be the Quinns. Seemingly cold and dispassionate, Sybill is fascinated by the Quinn clan, who are not at all what she was expecting. It is gradually revealed that the three older brothers had all experienced the horrors of abuse, neglect, and crime before being adopted by Ray and his wife, who both, though now dead, still exert considerable influence on them. The prolific Roberts has once again come through with a winning contemporary romance enhanced by a concern with special issues.
