Finally going back to a series that I loved last year! I loved reading the first two books in this series by Jennifer Probst last year and it always annoyed me that I didn’t make the time to finish this series.

Now that I’m almost done with the third and last installment, I cannot even begin to talk about how much I missed these characters.. especially Hei Hei! In this book we meet some more wonderful animal characters as well as new human characters that once you meet them, you’ll wonder how the Bishop Ranch had ever lived without them.

This story is such a cute and sweet romance that’ll have you swooning for these characters from the get go.

They found each other when they needed a change in their lives. All the roads led them to finally finding a life full of love and achieving the dreams that always seemed out of reach.

Harper is in charge of everything related to her family's rescue barn. She helps all kinds of animals that are in critical situation and gives them a new home, but she has a horse with a lot of potential that she does not want to waste. It happens to be staying at the hotel of her sister, a trainer named Aidan, who falls in love with the horse. Harper decides to let himself be helped, but she sets limits, since the attraction is irresistible.

I really wanted to read Harper's story, since in previous books we are told that she is very shy, exclusively interested in animals. Obviously there is something more to that and in this book we are going to discover it. I have loved seeing more of stable life, I love horses and reading about is always a pleasure.

The characters have also really liked me. I have seen myself a bit reflected in Harper since I am a doggy mom and I care a lot about my dogs. She is a strong and independent woman, very jealous of her intimacy, but she understands what she feels and she is not afraid. I really liked Aidan too, although he broke my heart a bit. Anyway, he is a good man, who respects Harper's decisions and gets him to open her heart.

If I have to put a problem with the book, it is that the relationship between the protagonists at the beginning is very slow. It took me a long time to get up to speed and that made me very sad. It is not an instalove, but at first there is attraction, although they resist it. There are a couple of initial misunderstandings, but it is not an enemies to lovers.

In general, All roads leads to you has been an entertaining read that I liked, but it lacked something. The fact that the beginning did not convince me made the reading a bit uphill, but in the middle that is solved and I read it practically at once. The world created in these books and the characters are very good, without a doubt I will continue reading the author because she is one of my favorites.

All Roads lead to you by Jennifer Probst
Reviewer: Chelsea
Rating: 5 stars!!

This is the third book in the Stay series and it follows Harper Bishop and her road to find love. Harper is the youngest Bishop sibling. We met her in book one, when her brother finds love. We grew to love her more in book two when her sister Ophelia falls for her high school sweet heart again. Now it’s her turn.

Harper isn’t interested in love. She gets why her siblings are so happy and she loves that, but for them. She is happy with her life the way it is. All she needs are her rescue animals and the farm.

Following her dream to make her beloved rescue horse Phoenix a champion she begins and friendship with Aiden, a new customer at her sisters B & B. They agree to keep it professional but the sparks fly and Harper has to decide is she can open her heart to more than just her family and her beloved animals.

Aiden left his home of Ireland after a betrayal and he only wants to get away. Then he meets Harper and he feels the pull her her refuse Phoenix and that plan hits a snag.

I loved these two together!! I loved Harper and her spirit and her deep love of animals and Alden, dang he really was such a great hero. I also can’t resist an accent, what woman can?! I loved the fall of these two and the ending killed me!! I want more from this world and need it ASAP!! I want Chloe to get her story and I can’t wait to see what happens in this family next!!

Love and Books

Harper is just spectacular, and so is Aidan (although I wanted to smack him once or twice). They both need the chance Phoenix gives them, and they both need each other too! A wonderful story.

Harper manages the farm and animal rescue in her family’s bed and breakfast establishment. Her latest rescue is a Thoroughbred Racehorse, who was abused by her owner after losing a race. Phoenix is temperamental and not easy to trust but she has made progress. Her goal is to possibly get him on the track again. Coincidentally, Aidan O’Connor, a guest, at the Inn happens to train horses professionally and looking for his new project. Harper and Aiden will agree to work together but to be successful, they have a few things to overcome, such as trust, learning to love and learning to let go of the past.

All Roads Lead to you is my favorite of the three books of the series. I enjoyed Harper and Aidan’s story. Their past, feelings, and situations are familiar and at times too close to home. I get them. Harper’s passion for rescuing animals is uplifting and Aidan, well, he’s just adorably hot. Together, they were sweet and they made me laugh.

I can’t get enough of the adorable rescue animals in the farm who all have specific personalities. Most especially Phoenix, the rescue horse of the story, a goat named Captain Hoof, and Hei Hei, the chicken. These three took a good portion of the stage and stole my heart. They were hilarious, quirky, and very sweet. I still laugh at their antics and interactions with each other.

I’m sure I’m not alone in this, but this book cannot be the end of the series. Yes, we got all the stories of the three Bishop siblings, but there are secondary characters’ stories that need to be told. Chloe and Owen, the teens who were sentenced to volunteer at the farm desperately need a book of their own. Throughout the stories, you see them grow from being a**hole kids to a much more mature human beings. You can’t help but fall in love with them and feel invested in their lives. I’m hoping Probst will not leave her readers hanging and give Chloe and Owen an HEA.

This book was so entertaining. I was drawn into the story from the beginning and was involved until the end. The characters were complex and interesting. I found the story to be well paced and engrossing throughout the whole book. I was invested in the couple throughout the book and felt all the emotions through both the highs and lows of the story.The side characters were such an integral part of this story as well. This is the love story i needed to read at this time. If you want an entertaining and well written book this is it for you

I happened to read this series backwards :) and does it really matter with Jennifer Probst being the author! Any book of hers is worth reading more than one time and I've enjoyed every single title of hers.

Harper Bishop and Aiden O'Conner are one of her very best characters, and with her dose of quirks, fun and family dynamics, all roads definitely lead to an enjoyable reading!

Five racing stars! A touchy and sexy romance with all the feels.

Suddenly my heart was warmed in sweet honey and my soul was seduced with the tempting Irish accent of the male character of this wonderful book, taking me by surprise! I felt like all the books I read before lead me to this moment. Jennifer Probst has that magical and addictive touch. Her writing always has the power to leave me feeling so good. My heart full of emotions. My soul full of romance. All bets are off when it is about Jennifer Probst’s books. All Roads Lead to You is an exceptional and unique romance with a heartfelt throb where the main characters will learn a few lessons in life, love, trust and taking chances.

The story told inside the pages of this piece of sweet heaven is an enticing journey of challenges, promises and irresistible attraction. This book is more than a plain romance, it is so much more. The plot is unexpectedly refreshing. The pacing is fast and the characters are easy to love, especially Phoenix. He is a rising star, his spirit is powerful and his soul is pure like no other rescued horse. Healed with love and trained to win by two people who love the farm life, two generous souls that would give anything for the well-being of any animal.

Harper and Aidan. Their romance flourished in the forbidden arms of healing and training the spirited and temperamental horse. The attraction between those two is explosive and a major distraction. It was one of the best slow burn! Sparks fly when they are together. Two loners who prefer animals over people. They have been hurt and trust is a major issue for both of them. They have been burned by their painful past. Harper runs the family horse rescue farm with tender heart full of love for any animal in need. She has a better relationship with animals because they don’t break your trust as humans do. She is very determined to make her thoroughbred, Phoenix a winner. Trusting him to a guest at her family’s B&B. He happen to be a horse trainer who left Ireland because some shady issue. Aidan has a gift and training horses is his life. He has a goal, to return home like a king and he will do anything to convince Harper and her siblings to train Phoenix.

Between the chemistry and the undeniable attraction, Harper and Aidan will try to keep it professional but lines will be blurred. They couldn’t ignore the feelings growing steadily, as their lonely souls recognized their match. Slowly they will build, without realizing, a small family with all the rescued fur babies.

I found myself pretty identified with Harper, such a fierce and sassy woman who knows exactly what she wants. I felt like she could be my best friend. She has a generous soul. Her passion for rescuing animals called to my soul. Open up is not easy for her because of her past but Aidan worth any heart break or good bye. She didn’t need a man to feel complete although she learned so much and became a better version of herself because loving someone change you in the best way possible. She really had it bad because who can resist a sexy and hot Irish man?

Aidan took a special place in my boyfriend list. He is all man. Adorably hot and sinful handsome. Just a dangerous mix of hard work and alpha male. He was very intriguing, pushy and absolutely charming. Determined to make Phoenix a champion. He pushed all of Harper’s boundaries. The mini battles and his tactics made them a perfect team, balancing and respecting each other. Aidan’s magnetic personality and distinctive qualities overwhelmed me. Aidan’s support, fighting spirit and relentless attitude shattered Harper’s walls. The result: blistering lust, passion and overwhelming sexual tension that engulfed them in a sizzling and tempting rush of wicked desire.

Funny, sexy, emotional, and full of scenes that make your heart swell with love, All Roads Lead to You is a beautiful story, one you will want to read again and again.

Excited to be back with the Bishops and their menagerie of people and animals! I have been waiting for Harper's book since we met her in book 1. And of course, I always look forward to reading more about Hei Hei.

Aiden is not expecting to meet Harper when he comes to the US. I think the chemistry between the two is instant and they tentatively forge a partnership to train Aiden's latest racehorse who also happens to be Harper's horse that she rescued.

The two agree to nothing serious, just fun while Aiden is around. Of course, we all know how that goes.

I liked getting to know Harper and more about what makes her tick and her life. She was the most mysterious Bishop sibling in my opinion. Seeing Chloe all grown up was nice but Owen was really annoying. It was wonderful to visit with everyone again and I will miss this farm/setting.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy.

Sweet Romance

While this is the only book I have read in this series, Jennifer Probst gives her readers a sweet and sexy romance with Harper and Aidan.

These characters were likeable right off the bat, especially Harper and her love of animals and the animals are what brought them together. She's got a champion on her hands right now and Adian is the perfect match to train him.

"The road led him right here, to this farm, to this horse. He was meant to be here and train him."

They were what each other needed at the time. Harper a workaholic that doesn't let anybody in and Aiden with a soul as close to hers as she could ever imagine. They started out as friends, however you could see it wasn't going to stay that way for long.

The book is well written, highly predictable, but a good, solid read nonetheless. As I mentioned, this was the only book in the series that I have read and Jennifer Probst did a great job at explaining the supporting characters so I didn't feel lost.

Another amazing emotional, full of angst read by Jennifer Probst. I've loved this series and have been anxiously waiting for Harper's story. It was all I was hoping for and more. I adore the relationship and interactions between Harper and Aiden from their first meeting. The love they both have for all the broken animals on the farm is heartwarming. But the love they have for each other is breathtaking. I absolutely love Phoenix the abused horse they work with and Captain Hoof, a goat who was also abused and they take in on the farm. Aiden and Harper will melt your heart, break it in two, then put it back together again even stronger. This book will have you laughing and crying and going through all the feels. I love the dynamic of this family and would love to see more from them. What a great read.

Harper lives in a two bedroom cottage. She has a brother Ethan who was in the military. Harper runs a horse rescue farm. Harper's sister Ophelia has a bed and breakfast close by. Aidan comes to Ophelia's bed and breakfast. He also has a passion for horses.Aidan really wants to train Phoenix. I thought Harper gave Aidan a hard time sometimes but she was protecting herself.I loved how the story centered around horses.It was a little hard to read Phoenix getting comfortable with his fears and knowing how hard it was for him.

Harper rescues animals, there is a battered horse Phoenix that has been abused however Harper sees potential in Phoenix. Aiden a horse trainer from Ireland comes to Harper's bed and breakfast on vacation and would love to work with Phoenix.....this book was great, loved it.

"They'd ruined everything. She'd be haunted by that kiss for the rest of her days and, God help her, all the nights."

Harper has one focus in her life - her horses, animals and the farm. When Aidan shows up for a short stay at her family's Inn, she had no idea how her life was going to be turned upside down.

Aidan had been restless. When he meets Harper, things start coming together for him. Then when he meets her horse, Phoenix, he is sunk. Training Phoenix would be exactly what Aidan needs to find purpose.

There are so many reasons for this not to work. But Harper and Aidan can't resist the temptation. Will they still be able to have a working relationship when things change in their personal relationship?

I love the Stay series!
