Reminiscent Hearts: A second chance love story Kindle Edition
Jake - the ultimate bad boy, and certainly not boyfriend material. Scarred from his past, he never believed he was worthy of anything innocent and sweet. And, unwilling to let his deepest, darkest desires corrupt someone so pure, he pushed Lily away - straight into the arms of someone else.
Lily Hill was quiet, shy and completely in love with Jake Stewart in high school. But after fighting for their friendship for so long, she finally accepted that he would never feel the same way about her as she did about him, and moved on.
But five years later, an accidental reunion gives Jake one more chance with Lily. But the Lily he meets isn't the same girl he remembers.
What happened to her?

- Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2017I loved this story. From beginning to the end I couldn't put it down. Have tissues near by because you will need them. The ending cracked me up. I wasn't expecting that.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2017I like this author and all her previous works. In this novel however, I didn't feel the characters and stayed remote. I also have never hated the sentence " God, I'm a bastard" so much. This for the first half of the novel was Jake's end thought of himself, with his unrequited lust for the innocent Lily.
Lily is an interesting character, during the first half of the book, she was super sweet, secretly in love with Jake, stayed his friends even as he broke her heart as a teenager and then after university even after she found a second love, which during the adult part of the novel she changes due to tragedy in her life and her entrance into Jake's life shocked him.
The reverse can be said of Jake as he was a bad boy through and through, angry at his parents, his brother, women and Lily. Essentially he was a user and a jerk. However he did come.e back into his own in the latter half as he tries to do the right thing and save Lily from herself.
These two go through a lot in this book and have baggage that defines their lives as teens and adults. When a second chance to be together come around, will their differences let them work it out. Solid 3.5 stars for me.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2017I struggled with this story until around 62%. This wasn't what I expected and while I prefer darker, angst filled romances, I didn't feel like Jake had a single redeeming quality. He was a mean, angry guy. I agreed with his remark at the end of many of his chapters "God, I'm a bastard."
But then he experienced a sort of rebirth and began to evolve into the person he was always meant to be. He came through for Lily in a huge way after tragedy turned her into an emotionally dead shell of her former self. Jake saved her. Yeah, sometimes he was impulsive, childish and impatient, but give the guy props - Lily was probably the only person he'd ever loved and when he finally admitted it to himself he was all in. He was very endearing. I felt like pair of them blossomed together.
I loved Lily. She was tough and spunky and didn't take Jake's crap. She lost so much and survived on her terms. You gotta admire that.
There are 2 rather violent sex scenes that lowered my rating - not because sex bothers me but because they were bordering on rape. But I would recommend this story. It ended up being surprisingly good. Cute ending.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2017I am a HUGE fan of Author Rachel De Lune and never give up a chance to read her work. Reminiscent Hearts is a beautiful 2nd chance romance story that had me fully absorbed and rooting for the characters from the very beginning. Rachel earned herself 5 stars from me on this one for so many reasons. She kept me glued to the pages and curious about both the past and the future of Jake and Lily. She had my stomach in my throat, and tears on my cheeks when I found out. The steamy, sexy bits are scorching hot and a true reflection of the author’s talents. This story brought out all the feels for me; joy, anger, sadness, and desire, just to name a few.
Jake and Lily are unlikely high school friends with an unrequited attraction to each other. Jake is determined to keep his feelings to himself; he does all he can to ensure he is not the object of Lily’s infatuation in an attempt to save her from himself. Lily sees through the rough and tough exterior of Jake and holds a special place in her heart for him.
Reminiscent Hearts follows Jake and Lily’s their unconventional friendship as teenagers and young adults, until their shocking chance encounter years later. The story is written in both past and present and dual POV. The author has done a good job using this style. She keeps the reader in the moment and the story does not become confusing, it only enlightens the reader, and gives a glimpse into the thoughts and minds of both characters.
Both Jake and Lily have seen more than their fair share of tragedy and rejection. They have both handled their situations in ways which may make you want to strangle them but characters have a very strong resolve which is why Jake and Lily are sure to be one of your all-time favourite couples. This story has a few side characters that I wanted to strangle as well but these characters are part of what makes Jake and Lily who they are. One thing I loved about Lily’s character is her strength. She may have had a setback but she is not easily deceived nor is she a withering flower in need of protection. She stands on her own two feet and puts those who need to be, in their place. Jake is very protective over Lily and his love for her is probably what saves him.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story and I look forward to more stories from this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally got lost in this story
Aww this book is really lovely! Lily and Jake’s story is a stunning emotional rollercoaster and one that I was happy to be on. I’ve smiled, laughed, fumed and even cried as I read this book, there is so much pain but so much beauty in the words and the beauty is the light that shines so brightly as you read. I’m sitting here now with a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart, a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. Not often I wish I could go back and feel all the emotions I felt as I read but this book is one that totally makes me feel that way.
