Ambition

In Natalie Keller Reinert's utterly immersive and propulsive eight-book Eventing Series, we follow Jules and her friends through the joys and losses of competitive eventing as they climb to the top of their sport-and into one another's lives and hearts. Jules Thornton didn't come to Florida horse country to make friends. With her beloved horse, Dynamo, and her ruthless ambition, she is intent on becoming a world-class rider and trainer. Chasing dreams this big doesn't leave much time for things like friends or vacations or properly cooked meals. And she certainly doesn't have time for Pete Morrison, the handsome heir to one of Ocala's grandest horse farms, who keeps beating her at events and, for some reason, asking her out to dinner. But even Jules has to admit that she is hanging on by a thread. As a new horse challenges her skills and her farm slips toward bankruptcy, she begins to realize her ambition can take her only so far. With hurricane season on the horizon, Jules will need to learn to trust her community-or risk losing everything.
