A review by buckeyebreezey
Sea Swept by Nora Roberts

4.0

Sometimes, I'm glad I started with the Donovan Legacy and the Chesapeake Bay saga when I started reading Nora Roberts. While the Donovan Legacy feels outdated (and a bit violent and tropey to me now), the first novel the Chesapeake Bay saga holds up well. It's one of the few trilogies where our protagonists are all male. Yes, unbelievably attractive male - but male.

What makes this trilogy special is that it ISN'T magic. It ISN'T fate. For all the romance and sex scenes, it was never about those. It was about the relationships forged between father and son and between brothers. And what makes a family is more than blood relations. The side plots about Ray Quinn's legacy and Seth growing up and becoming part of the family are so REAL as they are written. And they add to the story that Roberts tells.

Definitely one of my faves.
