Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wild Ride Through Florida's Horse Country Jules came to Ocala one year ago, with only one goal on her mind: becoming a top Three-Day Event rider and trainer. She's young, hungry, and driven by demons only she knows about. To Jules, being fiercely ambitious is simply the fuel she needs to achieve her dreams. But to the rest of the Ocala equestrian set, Jules Thornton is a nasty know-it-all who deserves whatever comeuppance she gets. Jules doesn't get the hate. What’s a hard-knocking horsewoman supposed to do when no one likes her, everyone is whispering behind her back, and the same pretty rich boy keeps beating her at every event? It will take a hurricane to blow some sense into Jules, and even then, she won't be quick to accept help. If Jules is going to succeed, she has to learn to let go of her past and embrace a different version of the world she's built for herself: one in which people can be just as trustworthy as horses, and everyone deserves a fair shake. With deepening friendships, a budding romance, and a fresh start, Jules could be on the road to recovery. If she doesn't mess it up for herself. Take a journey like no other, as you explore the gorgeous Florida horse country with Jules and her horses, working students, and friends in Ambition.

Book excerpt: The fourth book in Natalie Keller Reinert’s beloved Eventing Series, set in the high-stakes world of three-day eventing, now reimagined and repackaged! Jules and Pete have hit rock bottom. They are living in the middle of nowhere in a tiny horse trailer, their horses are in temporary stalls, and they are dependent on nearby farms for training facilities. Yet somehow, despite all of that, Jules has never been happier. She has her horses and her boyfriend and her loyal beagle, and, for perhaps the first time ever, she feels free. But Pete doesn’t see things the way she does. Still reeling from the loss of Briar Hill, the beautiful farm he was supposed to inherit, Pete struggles to adapt to their new life. And when word of their new circumstances gets out, the owners Jules and Pete depend on begin to question whether or not they can trust them with their horses. Desperate to shore up their reputation, Jules finds herself teaching students, something she had long ago sworn off. But to her surprise, she actually likes teaching—even the snarky, pink-haired student who is more like Jules than she realizes. As Jules begins to imagine a different kind of life, one arranged around teaching schedules and teenage hopes, Pete schemes to get back to the top of the Ocala equestrian scene. When he resorts to questionable tactics to secure a new horse for his barn, Jules realizes how lost he is. Jules has never considered herself to be lucky—Pete was always the lucky one. But maybe she’s had it wrong all along. Can she convince Pete that the only luck they need is their horses, and each other? In Natalie Keller Reinert’s beloved eight-book Eventing Series, we follow Jules and her friends through the joys and heartbreaks of the competitive eventing circuit, as they work their way into elite echelons—and into one another’s lives and hearts. Utterly immersive and propulsive, this series is an unforgettable journey for anyone who has ever fallen in love with horses, or humans.

Originally published in 2011, The Head and Not The Heart spurred the creating of the bestselling, award-nominated Alex & Alexander series. Now, read this bonus novella for more background on the action between Runaway Alex and Other People's Horses. Alex's life looks pretty wonderful to the casual observer. She's in a committed relationship with a master racehorse trainer. Surrounded by hundreds of horses in the green hills of Ocala, Florida, it's a dream life for any equestrian. But suddenly she's tired of hitting the ground when a flighty racehorse decides to spook, tired of fending off biting and kicking foals, tired of 2 AM calls for veterinary emergencies. And Alex is starting to wonder if she's made the right choices in life. When their racing stable suffers a loss, she and Alexander slowly begin to fall apart. A chance find of a long-lost horse sends Alex alone to New York City, and she wonders if this is the sign she's been waiting for. Is it time to leave it all behind and start fresh? Running from the lush pastures of Florida horse country to the icy streets of Brooklyn, Alex experiments with being a different sort of person, as if horses had never mattered to her, and finds herself lost in the company of strangers. Dealing with love, loss, and obsession -- all the components of a life with horses -- "The Head and Not The Heart" brings the world of racehorses and the people who love them to life.
