A champion boat racer, Cameron Quinn traveled the world spending his winnings on champagne and women. But when his dying father calls him home to care for Seth, a troubled young boy not unlike Cameron once was, his life changes overnight.

After years of independence, Cameron has to learn to live with his brothers again, while he struggles with cooking, cleaning, and caring for a difficult boy. Old rivalries and new resentments flare between Cameron and his brothers, but they try to put aside their differences for Seth's sake.

Sea Swept Starts Adrift but Builds Into Full Sails

For me, the beginning took some time to get wrapped into but once I got there, the plot was very rich with characters whose personalities are deeper than their initial introductions. I am looking forward to Part 2. I loved David Stuart's narration...he did an excellent job even when he read for the female characters. It is worth your purchase and time:)

Good Story, Too much language

The story was really good. The characters are boys who have been adopted by a couple. The boys are grown and both parents have died. The 4th boy is only 10 yrs old. Seth has a social worker who knows what he needs. The story could have been told without all the language. It would stand on it's own.

Charming

What made the experience of listening to Sea Swept the most enjoyable?

The story line was sweet.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Cam started to love Seth, but he didn't even know it.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me both laugh and cry.

Any additional comments?

Had a difficult time trying to stop listening to this book.

Good story tho

Story was good but the performance wasn’t. I could hear some kind of background noise through the entire book. It was so distracting that I plan to return the last two of this series without listening.

Swept Away from start to end

If you could sum up Sea Swept in three words, what would they be?

Feeling right there

Cam

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No really like to savor the books but its hard when there this good

Good Nora Roberts reading

If your a Nora Roberts fan, this book is a good read.

Love affair way to predictable

What did you love best about Sea Swept?

The concept for the story was great but come on Nora let's get a better love story. Even I, who didn't realize she had a date (thought initally I made the cut for Little Sister) figured it out after a 1/2 hr.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

Put another male and/or female in the love story to give it some realizm.

Ok, but not enough to go for the rest of the serie

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No. There are better ones out there.

If you’ve listened to books by Nora Roberts before, how does this one compare?

I LOVE her "In Death" series and have all 38. This one drones compared to those.

Did Sea Swept inspire you to do anything?

Yes, try another series.

Good Story!

Great love story with engaging back drop! Looking forward to the next book in the series!

excellent

Great Story Great narrator - I've read this book then bought it on tape and now have bought it again for my mp3 as I love the story. This is the first book in a really good series. Romance for sure but with some super personalities and very well written. One of the very best.
