What a Finish!

All Roads Lead to You is book 3, and I assume the final book in the Stay series, and it’s another stellar story.

Harper is the youngest of the Bishop siblings and has always felt more comfortable around animals than people. Aidan is a horse trainer who’s trying to make it on his own and overcome a betrayal. They come together to train a very special horse but slowly realize that they are what the other has been looking for.

This slow burn romance kept me anticipating that first kiss and did NOT disappoint! Once Harper and Aidan admitted their desires the sex was HOT but even better the intimacy was profound. Harper’s story about her high school experience was absolutely heartbreaking and Aidan’s response was spot on.

I also absolutely loved the horse racing element of the story, it kept things interesting and at times intense! The Owen and Chloe flirtation and the interactions with Mia and Ethan and Ophelia and Kyle allowed us to catch up with the whole family. And best of all Hei Hei was back and we got to meet Captain Hoof!

Jennifer Probst has become and auto read for me and I can’t wait to see what comes next from her!

I received a complimentary review copy of this book but all opinions are my own.

My heart feels impossibly full and warm after reading All Roads Lead To You by Jennifer Probst. This inspiring and heartwarming story was all about never losing hope, finding trust, surviving all obstacles and coming out on the other side of hell as a better soul. The characters, the story line and the writing was amazing to say the least!


Jennifer Probst is one of my all time favorite writers. And this story emphasized the reasons why. She has this brilliant ability to pull out intense and deep emotions from every line. This story has the unique powers of human and animal bonding incorporated in the swoonworthy and sometimes heartbreaking romance. Aiden and Harper met by chance after Aiden came to stay in her sister's inn. Harper runs an animal rescue and Phoenix is her pride horse. An abused and neglected horse brought back to life by Harper. And Phoenix can be the exact thing famous horse trainer Aiden is looking for. As Aiden prepares Phoenix for competitive racing to get back his lost reputation and glory, his chemistry with Harper is standing on the precipice. Will the past come to haunt him? Can Harper protect her heart, her horse and her sanity at the same time falling for someone she shouldn't?


I love the farm with the crazy, sweet, weird and adorable animals! They are the soul of this story, not a simple background. Aiden's character had some complex layers. I completely fall in love with this gorgeous man with a bit rough edge, unlimited sex appeal, protectiveness and just the right kind of bossy attitude. The scenes where he was interacting with the wounded and terrified animals with care, empathy and confidence melted me every damn time! And Harper is an incredible woman! She has the heart of gold and spine of steele. She can be so strong for the animals who need her help and protection. And she can be so vulnerable with the doubts and insecurities. Aiden is the perfect man for her who cherishes her but doesn't control her and protects her but doesn't take the decision away from her. The slow burn was burning up my device for real. The electrifying chemistry was so intense and beautiful. They had to go through some painful and devastating path. My heart almost could not take the heart break at the end! But it was all worth it at the end! The story had a big component of drama and adrenaline rush about the horse racing world which kept me on the edge of seat! I was cheering Team Phoenix all the way. The small town with it's loving people added another extra level of charm to the story.

All Roads Lead To You was a sensational, poignant, soul-deep and sexy love story in true Jennifer Probst style. Aiden, Harper and Phoenix will haunt me for a long time. This story gave me goosebumps , tears and swooniest smile!

Great addition to a fun series.



Jennifer Probst’s Stay series continues with book 3, “All Roads Lead to You”, Harper and Aidan’s story. While it was fun to see how the characters from the previous books were doing this book reads well as a stand alone story.
I loved how Harper and Aidan’s relationship started. So often in romances you have instant love or lust. Their connection was so much deeper. I enjoyed the insight into raving and the rescue animal sanctuary. There were the twists and turns I’ve learned to love in a Jennifer Probst book and a very satisfying HEA.

Every once in a while, a novel comes along at just the right time to hit all of the right notes for its reader. It just so happens that the week when I am reminded of just how important animal rescue groups are, I read a lovely, heart-felt, sometimes funny romance that involves a family doing rescue work.

All Roads Lead to You by Jennifer Probst is the third novel in her Stay series. While I could tell immediately that it was part of a series (the new loving couples are a dead giveaway) and I hadn’t read the previous two, I didn’t feel letdown at all. The characters mingling in each other’s lives was definitely a thing, especially because of their physical proximity.

The main character is Harper Bishop who is one of my favorite female romance characters in a very long time. She is who she is, take it or leave it. She isn’t asking for anyone’s approval.

“She was thirty-three years old and hadn’t experienced even a twinge of a ticking biological clock. No desire to try on white wedding dresses, or pick out baby names, or dream of a man who could complete her.

She was complete all by herself.”

And she’s mature. She deals maturely in relationships and doesn’t have tantrums, although she’s blunt.

Harper is all about the animals she rescues, firmly believing that all creatures deserve a chance.

Aidan O’Connor is very much her equal. In Ireland, he grew up from nothing to make a name for himself almost to have it taken away by someone he considered a friend. Now, in the States he’s looking for another chance and finds it in the temperamental thoroughbred Phoenix and maybe even in Harper.

The romance between Harper and Aidan is a slow burn, which I enjoyed. The chemistry, however, is rippling from the beginning.

And, speaking of beginnings, I loved how Harper and Aidan both had what were almost premonitions about something coming into their lives and then there they were, meeting each other. It felt of something bigger, which I adored.

The farm is filled with rescue animals from a grumpy cat, sweet horses, a bevy of dogs, alpha horses, a Polish chicken named Hei Hei who is almost worth the price of admission for his diva antics, and then there is Captain Hoof, an abandoned, abused goat kid who will steel your heart away.

Besides the romance, there is enough other plot with Phoenix’ racing to keep the reader swiftly turning pages.

I loved it. This is a book very much for you animal lovers and rescue supporters.

All Roads Lead to You by Jennifer Probst

All Roads Lead to You by Jennifer Probst is the third book in a series by Jennifer Probst called Stay. The story focuses on a family of three siblings who live in New York’s Hudson Valley. They run a B and B and a rescue farm for horses. Book one was all about the brother Ethan and Mia. Book two was about Ophelia and Kyle. This book is going to focus on Harper, the last sister and her rescue farm. While all books were great, they can be read as standalones.

Harper has always felt different. She is tall and does not look like her siblings. She finds solace with the horses she saves and her work with animals. Harper is smart, compassionate and caring, but she is also a straight talker with no ability to conceal her thoughts. She has a horse that has really has some interesting skills. The amount of work to get Phoenix to even be calm around them and be ridden was tremendous, but Harper thinks he was and is a racer.

Aiden came to the B and B to rest. He was looking for what was next, a horse to train, a past to conceal. It was then he saw Phoenix and met Harper. He is hooked and works hard to get the family to accept him and training Phoenix.

The story is another great love story. I love the openness and up front person that is Harper. I understand how Harper could love Aiden’s voice with his Irish lilt. All the animals seem to fall for Aiden which makes him even more a part of the family. I enjoy how Jennifer Probst always has a moral dilemma for each character and how they grow from their experiences. It doesn’t hurt that the books are HOT. All Roads Lead to You by Jennifer Probst was a great read with lots of romance.

While the writing is very good and keeps you invested in the story, I couldn’t get into the female character at all. I mean, she’s a strong woman and wants to do everything on her way, she doesn’t want to rely on anyone for anything in her life especially with their B&B but it feels like she could have loosened up a bit. Nobody is that cold strong headed and everyone has insecurities even if they don’t want to acknowledge them.
I’m a city girl and was like this all my life, maybe that’s why I couldn’t get into all this obsession with the horses and races and everything else regarding this story.
Everyone deserves love even if it takes more for some people to find or feel it.

Thank you Netgalley for this ARC for a review. This is the 3rd book in the series, but can be read as a stand alone. Harper is partners with her sister and brother in a bed and breakfast her mother started. Harper rescues animals and is in charge of horses and stables the guests ride. She is a loner and standoffish after being bullied in school. Aiden is an Irish, out of work horse trainer, on vacation, and lands up as a guest and the Bishop's B&B and finds something in both Harper and Harper's latest rescue, an abused thoroughbred named Phoenix. As soon as you mention horses/horse racing/Ireland, I was caught. I totally loved this book. I didn't even mind I hadn't read the first two books! All roads lead to you had me both laughing and crying; the antics of the rescued animals especially a certain polish chicken named Hei Hei, and a baby goat with a certain security blanket (I wont give this away!), to finding out Harper's story of being bullied. This is a great summer read with plenty of romance, lots of sizzle, but also a good social message as well.

Yessss, finally Harper's story! After reading The Start of Something Good and A Brand New Ending, I was happy to see that Harper also got her happy ending. We also see Ethan and Mia, Ophelia and Kyle and of course also Chloe in this book! Yay, one happy reunion. Sigh.
And still, the stories of the Stay series about the Bishop siblings are all very different. That is probably why Jennifer Probst is one of my favorite authors! She keeps us on our toes, because we really want to see what is happening between Harper and Aiden. I was rooting for Aiden to win Harper over, but she wasn't convinced easily. When you read about her past and her story, you can't help but fall in love with them. So, of course, five out of five stars from me and a thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc.

4 <b> Captain Hoof </b> Stars
This series is about healing, love and never being alone no matter what your loves and passions are. It shows us that each one of us has “fallen from grace” and maybe our lives are not where we expected them to be but our lives and our struggles have made us to be the person we are. We may question who we are but as long as we never change that there will always be a person, an animal and a dream out there for us. This story is about Aiden and Harper figuring that our but its also about Captain Hoof and Phoenix finding that too… success is not only measured in wins and trophies. I thank the publisher a million times for giving me this book early and I apologize for the late review

I really enjoyed this book. At first it was a little frustrating how long it took for them to even kiss(more than 50% of the book). But the relationship building was so sexy and so core to each of their personalities that I came to find it refreshing. So many novels jump right into the sex and assume that's the intimacy people are looking for. The setting of this book was perfect-i love the animal rescue and horses. Not only were the main characters awesome, the support characters were as well. This is probably the heroine I could relate to the most. She was so well written and her character never wavered or compromised as the book progressed. And the Irish hero was just so dreamy and respectful.

All Roads Lead to You features Harper is the youngest of the Bishop siblings. While her sister Ophelia runs the B&B and Ethan help where he can with the Inn and farm, Harper works the barns and horses through the rescue part of the property.

Working with animals is the best fit for Harper since she prefers them to people. She learned about horses at a young age through her mom who started the rescue. Harper has been working with her newest horse Phoenix, who is a natural racer but has some issues to work through.

That’s where the sexy Irish trainer, Aidan comes in. Aidan is on vacation at the B&B to get his head on straight from a suggestion that happened in Ireland with his ex-partner and once best friend. He hopes to find his next horse to train so he can get back into the world of racing and make a name for himself again.

Aidan nosey around the farm after being bored out of his mind on vacation and sees Harper with Phoenix. He gets a gut feeling he has found his next horse and the owner is sexy so he has some other feelings about Harper.

Aidan has to work hard at gaining trust with both Phoenix and Harper but once he does, Phoenix is not the only one doing the racing. The chemistry between Aidan and Harper set my heart racing during those very sexy times. It does take them a while to give in to the attraction since they agreed to not go there while working together as business partners.

The romance is All Roads Lead to You is a slow burn at first. Aidan, Harper, and Phoenix work through their issues and it was funny, heartbreaking and satisfying to see them all happy and healthy at the end of the story. (Oh one more thing that was satisfying for me was Aidan being almost 40! There was no reference to Harper’s age but since there was not a big deal made about an age difference I assumed they were close in age. I love seeing at least one of the MCs not be in their early 20s.)

Hei Hei the crazy chicken from the previous books in the Stay series is back plus a baby goat. Oh my gosh, the animals are so cute and funny. I don’t want to give anything away because you need to experience meeting the goat first hand but just know there are some really funny scenes.

I am not sure if there are more books planned in the Stay series since we’ve seen all three Bishops get their HEA, but I hope we get one more. I think there could be one with Chole and Owen, the two teens who meet on the farm. Maybe even a novella featuring them a couple of years down the road.

In “All Roads Lead to You” (Stay #3) by Jennifer Probst we are brought into the world of horse racing with a little “chicken” goat thrown in. A fun quick read about trust, taking chances and falling in love in the most unexpected places.

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley and this is my honest review.

OMG this book will rip your heart out and put it all back together again in the best possible way. With lovable and relatable characters (human and fur-baby) and a plot that twists and turns I had a hard time putting this story down. Sleep became irrelevant. Harper and Aidan are insanely adorable together and are a beautiful story of overcoming challenges. Then there is the baby goat. Hands down the Captain is my favorite animal character!
In a world that can be so cruel Jennifer Probst gives us stories of hope, happiness and humanity.

3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
What a refreshing story! This is my first Probst book so I was not sure what to expect. I felt she did a great job! I can relate to Harper and her love of animals and the desire to be surrounded by animals instead of people. I loved how she was passionate about her work. Harper rescues animals and nurses them back to life but she also sees their potential.
Aidan is in need a break so he head to the states to regroup. He happens to land at the B&B attached to Harpers farm. He feels an instant sparks with Harper. Once he finds out Harper has a horse she is attempting to get race ready he knows he landed at the right place at the right time.
I enjoyed how it took Aidan and Harper to act on the connection they felt. I like how they allowed the relationship time to blossom. I felt that Aidan and Harper’s loneliness spoke to each other. I thought the story was so sweet. I loved the characters and curious to read the other books in the series.

What a unique, wonderful story! I know nothing about horses so I was a little worried I would be bored, but the integration of horses and how the love for these animals brought the two main characters together was perfect. Great read!

All Roads To You returns readers to the Bishop B&B and Rescue Farm. This is the third book in the series, but if you missed the first two go back and find them as they are worth the read. Harper Bishop is happy or so she thinks looking after the farm and her animals. Aidan O’Connor comes to stay at the inn while searching for the right place to occupy his time in America. A horse trainer by trade he stumbles on Heather’s menagerie and in particular a horse called Phoenix. Aidan has a special way with animals which even Hei Hei realizes which shocks everyone as the chicken pretty much dislikes everyone.
Jennifer Probst makes you fall in love with her band of misfits, especially the adorable Captain Hoof. Read All Roads Lead To You - you will be glad you did!
I received an ARC of this book via Negalley - all opinions are my own.
