SYNOPSIS
Inner Harbor is the crowning achievement in the story of the lives of the brothers Quinn. While the previous two books dealt primarily with Cam and Ethan, Inner Harbor focuses its attention on Phillip, the most unattached of the three after having given up his sexy job in Baltimore to be part of a boat-building enterprise in the small town of St. Christopher's, on Maryland's eastern shore. Phillip may be the hunkiest of the brothers, and when a mysterious writer named Sybill crosses his path, his world begins to rock.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
From a barnesandnoble.com e-nnouncement
Nora Roberts is a staple on the New York Times bestseller
list, and having written more than 100 novels, she proves
that romance is far from dead. In Robertsﾽs latest novel,
INNER HARBOR, she concludes the captivating trilogy that
started with SEA SWEPT and RISING TIDES. Once again the
Quinn brothers are back in the final installment of the
trilogy. Read Noraﾽs insightful message before beginning
this enchanting conclusion.
Dear Reader,
Home means different things to different people. Making a
home can be both a challenge and a joy. Those of us who are
lucky have fond memories of the place where we grew up, of
the traditions there. INNER HARBOR deals with finding that
home, making it, preserving it.
Ray and Stella Quinn had given Phillip a second chance at
life. Heﾽd never forgotten what theyﾽd done for him. With
his brothers, Cameron, Ethan, and now Seth, Phillip worked
to maintain their home and keep a promise to a man he loved.
Maybe he preferred his life in Annapolis, the museums, the
restaurants, the crowds, but heﾽd keep his promise even if
it meant splitting his time on the Shore, laboring over
hulls and homework.
Home was what Ray wanted for his sons, all of his sons.
To keep his promise, and his home, Phillip must accept the
boy Ray brought into their lives, and deal with a beautiful
woman who has secrets that will affect all of them -- a
woman who needs both his trust and his heart.
To clear their fatherﾽs name and keep a sacred vow, the
Quinns will band together. A family formed by fate and
the generous hearts of a special couple.
--Nora Roberts
