Reseñas Varias sobre este libro
I received this book as an ARC from the author. I have loved Danielle Keil's young adult novels and Reclaimed Hearts has quickly become my favorite. I absolutely loved this book!! Marlowe lives on a small island, Covington Cove and has lived her life believing she is unlovable. Her parents left her and her grandmother raised her, but Marlowe always felt people abandoned her from her parents, her best friend Grace, and her boyfriend Reid who broke up with her because he didn't live on the island full time. Marlowe was devastated when Elenor Covington passed away, Marlowe was very close to Eleanor. Eleanor's death triggers a scavenger hunt from Eleanor for Marlowe to find clues to get her prize. I related with Marlowe's charecter from her anxiety and panic and how she believes everyone abandons her. Can Marlowe and Reid find their way back to each other in this second chance YA romance? I highly recommend this book if you enjoy reading YA or want to start reading YA.2 s book_nerd13270 14

Second chance
Summer vibes
The more I read of this book the more I wanted! Marlowe I feel for you so much! Its clear Marlowe is use to heartbreak and losing people she loves. When she loses someone close to her shes sent on a scavenger hunt for a mysterious prize.
Not only that her summer fling and one true love is back in town.
I absolutely love Reid, excuse me sir is there any love language you dont show to Marlowe? Seriously hes the most thoughtful, caring, and adorably sweet MMC.
This book had all the summer vibes, cute moments, and mystery to keep you wanting more. That ending tho?! I need more now!

I got the opportunity to read this YA romance through BookSirens.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this honest review voluntarily.
Overall this was a sweet fluffy YA read. This is a dont judge a book by its cover as I have to mention that the artwork for this novel does not shout YA at all. Its actually one of my biggest complaints of the book as it gives a wrong impression.
Anyway, subtitle written as part of the good reads posting says it all- a forced proximity second change romance.
The one thing I appreciated about this young persons romance is that it was actually based on a healthy dynamic. She explains many reason why they each other beyond the physical or some magical instant attraction that has no underlying basis.
I rarely round up when Im rating books but I did so in this instance. I would put it at a 3.75 out of 5. The one thing that took away from me not giving it a 4 star is that there wasnt too much that was exciting or galvanizing. Despite that I wanted to keep reading. The side plot was that she was going on a mini scavenger hunt which fell flat for me in the end.
To sum things up, it was cute and fluffy. A young beach read. Perfect for young teens!
My rating system since GoodReads doesnt have partial stars and I rarely round up.
** I rounded up this time as a 3 didnt do it justice. For what it is, I recommend it as it puts a smile on your face.

I was kindly provided with this book (censorship is BS and I hate it but here we are!)
4.5 stars. Second chance is growing on me, dont tell anyone!
The plot - This is a YA, second chance romance with friends to lovers, forced proximity and a scavenger hunt! There is no smut, given that its YA but some steamy kisses involved. Its a HEA with a VERY intriguing cliffhanger for a potential future book? Very interesting.
Honestly I debated DNFing this one around 25% because that first part? NOT A FUCKIN FAN. However after you get past that, and I realised that the FMC was a teenage girl so she was gonna make teenage girl mistakes, I was hooked!
The MC - Marlowe is our FMC, who had the CUTEST nicknames honestly. She was a lil naive but shes 17, what are you expecting? I loved her in this book, she fit 100%.
The male counterpart - Reid is our elusive MMC who holds his cards to his chest but when he shows them? Magical. Actual butterflies. Marie330 9
Marlowe enjoyed her life on Covington Cove, although if she was totally honest with herself she felt alone. Everybody who was supposed to love her left her and never looked back, even Reid broke her heart and left her behind last year. Ok she had friends and her Grandmum had brought her up since her parents left her and never looked back. But the shock of finding out Eleanor Covington had died was a curve ball she'd always been there another Grandma, she'd always treated Marlowe as if she belonged. This is a brilliant story that twists and turns making you so gripped you have to keep reading. The scavenger hunt Marlowe is sent on helps her see so much the she never realised until she saw things through different eyes. The story shows how island life can be difficult with the differences between the haves and have not culture. I loved the story and must say I'm really hoping there's a follow on story. Marie28 2
Welcome to Covington Cove Island
where timeless charm and secrets intertwine, and every wave whispers a tale of hidden hearts and summer dreams.
I was honored to be picked to be a part of the promo team for this book and I am so happy I was!!
This was such a perfect read to start the summer! My trip to the Cove was amazing yet way too short so I am excited to come back again soon!! (aka the other books in the series)
Reclaimed Hearts had a few different genres sprinkled in which I thought was so fun!! I loved trying to figure out the scavenger hunt along with Marlowe!
Also the twist at the end had me clicking my kindle for about a minute because I wanted there to be more to the story! I can not wait to read more of this series!!

I received this book as an ARC a couple weeks ago and just didnt have time to sit and read it yet. I finally found time yesterday and am sorry to say I didnt read it sooner. I was hooked from the very first chapter. The dynamic of this book is amazing. See a character Marlowe that thinks she is so unlovable she believe anyone who ever tells her they love her is going to leave is heartbreaking. Marlowe has to learn to trust people when they say they are not going to leave her. In light of this someone she was very close to decided to send her on a scavenger hunt that could change everything. Will she be able to figure out the clues and solve the hunt? Can she learn to forgive the people that left her? Will she be able to trust love again? Nicole Seckman20

First off, I am not really into YA novels but the romance and mystery of this book was *chefs kiss*. Danielle does a great job developing the characters and diving into the complexity of a girl just wanting to be accepted in her small town.
I cried at the end when the mystery was solved and Marlowe finally gets all she has ever wanted. The book did end on a major cliffhanger but honestly, I wanted more story anyway.
This book has a little something for everyone: second chance at love, small town romance, and mystery. I got a little bit of the OBX vibes from the novel and the play on townies vs visitors.
This should be a must for summer reads Amanda Davanzati526 17
This book gave me all the feels! I love the OBX and TSITP vibes from this book!
Reclaimed Hearts is a YA, second chance romance that is perfect for your next summer read! Danielle Keil takes a heartwarming romance and mixes it with an exciting scavenger hunt to make a fantastic read! Marlowe and Reid really captured the readers heart right from the start. This book felt so realistic and has so much to it. I love Marlowe and can empathize with her. Reid just blew my heart away. The way he cares is just so effortless and strong. I love this book so much! Definitely gonna be one I reread!
I definitely cant wait for more of this series! I love all the little hints and twists. I definitely recommend this for all! Even if young adult isnt your thing, it still could be a good read! Sylvia Pelletier310 19
Ready for the scavenger hunt of the summer? Marlowe sure wasn't. Her summer started out with a crash and definitely didn't go as she had planned. She was still heartbroken after her breakup with Reid last summer, the last thing she wanted was to run into him. She's believed that she's not able to be loved, because everyone that loves her ends up leaving. But when unexpected events lead to her shacking up with her ex, well she's in for a whirlwind of a summer. And that cliffhanger at the end was just cruel
