I received an advance copy of "Wild Horse Heart." It was amazing. I read it in one sitting (because I had to know what happened and totally fell in love with all of the characters). The writing and the story are beautiful. I'm not going to lie-there were some happy and sad (mostly happy) tears. It's a really special book.
I love the storyline, the characters, and the way Katrina tells the story.
I found the premise of the story really interesting! It was really fun to experience the whole process of Ria going through the audition process, getting cast, dealing with the joys, trials, and tribulations of being in a Hollywood blockbuster movie, and handling the aftermath of the completion of the film.
I got connected to the characters very easily (Except Mark. I don’t fancy him at all. You’ll see why as you read). Thr ...more

My favorite stories hit that sweet spot between romance and women's fiction, and Katrina Ariel's Wild Horse Heart sits squarely in the middle of those worlds.
When Ria Walsh lands her first movie role, she finally has the resources to leave her abusive husband and start over with her three beautiful children. Her fresh start comes complete with two men vying for her attention: Ria's charming and thoughtful director AND her sexy, all-too-confident costar. But Wild Horse Heart is as much about fin ...more

I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
Wild Horse Heart is the perfect summer/beach read. It's the kind of book you read when you need to relax, mentally and physically, and read something happy.
The book tells the story of Ria, mother of three and wannabe musician. When she's discovered playing by a big-time Hollywood producer who wants to cast her as the lead in his next movie, she must balance her new life, a vengeful ex-husband, and her feelings f ...more

With a main character who is down-to-earth and does not fit the Hollywood image of beauty, Wild Horse Heart encourages women to embrace their bodies that may have stretch marks and a few pounds more than they’d like, to love themselves and to chase their dreams.
Ria is mercifully plucked out of a life of misery and an abusive marriage when a movie director hears her talented voice and offers her a leading role in his movie. She finally stands up to her husband, packs up her three children and em ...more

I thoroughly enjoyed this new book by author Katrina Ariel. A refreshing storyline, realistic, well fleshed out characters and a plot to satisfy any reader looking for a happy summer read made this a winner. Add this to your holiday reading list and pick up a copy for your best friend while you're at it; some proceeds go to help protect wild horses.
'Wild Horse Heart' was such a good book, I loved it! It had a love triangle, which I normally avoid, but the blurb caught my attention and thankfully I decided to give it a chance. I loved both Ben and Finn and could not decide which of them I wanted Ria to end up with. In the end I was happy with her choice, but I probably would have been just as happy had it been the other way around. Each man deserved Ria's love and I was heartbroken for the one she didn't choose.
