What do readers think of The Magic of Untamed Hearts by Raquel Vasquez Gilliland? Write your own review.

Overall I enjoyed the story. I haven't read the first two in the series and wasn't familiar with the sisters which might have helped understand the family elements more (missed that this was a series.) Sometimes wasn't sure what the main theme was - magic or relationships or ghosts although I do think the story worked. Might look for the first two books.

All in all The Magic of Untamed Hearts was an enjoyable and entertaining read. I was intrigued by the enchantment connecting the humans with the earth. The main characters were also quirky and fun as well as the mystery that was surrounding the lives. I did find the intimate moments too detailed and could have been left to the reader's imagination. With that caution, I would recommend the book to friends.

This was an easy and fun read! I truly enjoyed how Sky was developed as a character. From the missing years of her life, to the loneliness, to the gift, to the aspects of her behavior that definitely put her on the spectrum, she (not surprisingly) made the book come alive. Even if the spicy scenes were a bit more graphic than they needed to be, they were an integral part to Sky discovering (rediscovering) herself. The online exchange between Adam and Sky also had a "You've Got Mail" vibe to it that was enjoyable, and I loved the way that the author wove in all of the various family issues in a way that did them justice without overwhelming the rest of the story. I do wish that the ending wasn't so abrupt and included more about the "cult."

Whimsical story of a young girl with special gifts that make her the outcast of the society. She struggles to find her way back to her true self, her family, love, and friends. Unexpected help comes from the grumpy next door neighbor.

This is not a book I would normally recommend select to read. Magic gifts to a family of women bring fun into the book, but the theme of "fitting in" hits home with many of us-/no matter what your gifts may be. It's also a love story. I could have done without the explicit sex in this book, but I realize that appeals to many others.

The Magic of Untamed Hearts was an unexpected delight. There was so much about the novel that drew me in. I enjoyed the magical aspect, especially Sky's ability to communicate with creatures. I thought the characters were well developed and relatable, particularly the Flores sisters. I like quirky characters and Sky definitely is one to remember. My reading is generally more tame, but if you realize this is more along the lines of Hocus Pocus meets Shades of Gray you will be prepared. This novel is the third in the series about these magical sisters and it makes me want to read the other two, it would be interesting to see how they treat Sky's eight year disappearance,
I think any reader open to a fun, sexy novel would enjoy this book. Thanks to Bookbrowse and Netgalley for the opportunity to preview this book.

Sky and Adam's world collide after findinng comfort in each other's presence. Sky has never felt so comfortable around someone and even when she shares her secrets with 'Adam, he doesn't judge her. As more than friendship seems to be blooming, Sky's uncertainties melt away.

I enjoyed this read. It was fast paced and well written.

I enjoyed this book! It's an interesting story line and I love the connection into earth, science and nature. The story strayed away from mythical world and dove straight into a romance! At times, I found the writing about the sex scenes a little too explicit and borderline raunchy.

I loved the manner in which the Author created and expressed the relationships among each of the characters. I felt how deeply bonded the sisters were, and I felt the real pain of their struggles.
