Hello!

I’m Natalie Keller Reinert, an award-winning author and theme park fan. I love to write about obsessive people, so making the turn from writing novels about the horse industry to writing about the theme park industry is not the stretch you might think.

My fiction work is published by Flatiron Books as well as self-published, and has won awards from American Horse Publications, the Equus Film & Literary Festival, and been named finalist for the Dr. Tony Ryan Book Awards. The Eventing Series and Briar Hill Farm series have been optioned by Amazon-MGM Studios for development as a streaming series. My next novel, The Jump, releases in March 2026 and it would be very cool if you preordered it. (preorder here.) Find out more about my books at nataliekreinert.com.

You can read my newsletter without a paid subscription - however, if you want to support my work by paying, thank you very much!

More About Me

I write women’s fiction and romance. Most of my books are set in the equestrian or horse industry, and feature details of these insular worlds that many people will never experience in person. I’m a two-time finalist for the Dr. Tony Ryan Book Award, a literary prize for literature about the horse racing industry, and the winner of several awards for my novels, including American Horse Publications’ Best Fiction.
