Chesapeake Blue (The Chesapeake Bay Saga)

From AudioFile Internationally acclaimed painter Seth Quinn has returned from Rome to his boyhood home on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Adopted as a child, Quinn is now running away from his blackmailing natural mother, who knows a dark secret he's convinced will ruin the lives of his (also adopted) brothers. His birth mother dogs his steps, but Quinn still finds the time to fall in love with the gorgeous new florist in town, even as he tries to save his family. James Daniels's voice conveys convincing female desire, as well as rough male camaraderie, and singes the listener's ears with Roberts's trademark passion in the last of the Quinn family romance trilogy. E.V. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine Product Description Seth Quinn is finally home. It’s been a long journey. After a harrowing boyhood with his drug-addicted mother, Seth had been taken in by the Quinn family, growing up with three older brothers who’d watched over him with love. Now a grown man returning from Europe as a successful painter, Seth is settling down on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, surrounded once again by Cam, Ethan, and Phil, their wives and children, and all the blessed chaos of the extended Quinn clan. Finally, he’s back in the little blue-and-white house where there’s always a boat at the dock, a rocker on the porch, and a dog in the yard. Still, a lot has changed in St. Christopher’s since he’s been gone — and the most intriguing change of all is the presence of Dru Whitcomb Banks. A city girl who has opened a florist shop in this seaside town, she craves independence and the challenge of establishing herself without the influence of her wealthy connections. In Seth, she sees another kind of challenge — a challenge that she can’t resist.
