This was my first Jennifer Probst read and it was great! I loved the chemistry between Aidan and Harper. I love when there is a past that needs to come to light for healing, and in this book it not only happens with humans but also for animals. Great read!

One eyed goats, Disney names, and blueberry scones...what’s not to love? This is Harper’s story and it was beautiful! This is the third book in the series and the first one that I read. This book can definitely be read as a stand alone. I was never lost for a second while reading this book. Aidan had no idea what he was getting into when he booked a room at the Inn. But one look and conversation with a green eyed beauty changed everything that he thought he wanted. Then there’s, Phoenix. So, being with Harper and Phoenix was a real eye opener. Harper couldn’t believe how this Irish man effected her. Her walls have been built and high since high school. But spending time together helped both them. I really enjoyed this book and I feel it is a must read.

Just when you think that Jennifer Proust cannot top her last book - she comes up with yet another masterpiece. Jennifer has a way to bring the characters to life, that once the story is over, you crave more! Also Jennifer never fails to write a sweet, swoony, emotional book. All Roads Lead to You was everything I wanted and more! The only thing I didn’t like was that it over!! Definitely will read this book again and one of the top books of 2019 that I’ve had the pleasure of reading. Happy reading, this one will hit all your emotions!!

Jennifer Probst gives us more in the Stay series in All Roads Lead to You. Harper Bishop runs the horse and animal rescue farm for the family Bed and Breakfast in the Hudson Valley of New York. Her latest rescue, a Thoroughbred she found abused and tied to a tree. He was a beauty, shiny black. He had to be named Phoenix,
Aiden O'Connor left Ireland after splitting with his horse training partner. Their recent win in the Irish Sweep was great but problems separated them the best friends. He decided to head to the US for a vacation and to see if he could find another opportunity to use his talent with horses. He read online about the horses being trained in areas of New York. He decided to head to check into Robyn's B & B, a lovely place where family treated guests to a quiet life, great food, and an opportunity to be around the the rescued animals. The land that headed into the rural mountains provided a place to ride the trails. Aiden felt he could stay awhile then head to a job opportunity he had heard about. In the meantime he would head to the barn to check out the horses. Harper was there struggling with a new ranch hand and she really did not want to deal with a guest that feels he is the king of training horses. They quibbled with each other but neither Harper nor Aiden could deny the sparks that flew between them.
I have read the first 2 books in the Stay series and found them concentrating on the family and ranch life. In this 3rd book we find the family concentrating on Harper and the animals that she rescues. This story is entertaining and leads us into the ways and means behind animal rescue. I really enjoyed it.
Jennifer Probst's All Roads Lead to You is set to be published July 23, 2019 by Montlake Romance. I give this one 5 stars and highly recommend it and the series, Stay.

Jennifer Probst is back with Harper and all the gang. This time we see more of Harper and her riot of animal friends. I laughed all the way in the book and jumped with excitement when it came with the races. Have to say Phoenix just made me gallop with his fight to be well feeling free. Harper does so much and Aidan is patient when it comes to these two. We see everybody back even Hei Hei and his well take no prisoners feisty attitude. This was a beautiful series by Jennifer Probst showing how never give up in hope and loved it from the animals to just the magic around this area.

"I received an eBook copy from the publisher for the purpose of an honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own."

I have come to love this series. A series about falling in love with individuals that because of their careers , responsibilities and /or fears , need to decided whether to leave or “stay” with the ones they have fallen in love. Not always an easy decision and one where hearts are at times broken.
This time the story belongs to Harper Bishop. She’s the last single Bishop sibling and the one whose passion is the rescue farm in their property and the thoroughbred she’s rescued, Phoenix.
AIdan O’Connor is an Irish horse trainer that has left his country after a betrayal that cost him his career . By chance he’s staying in the family B & B when he comes across Phoenix and Harper.
These two are emotionally scarred. Individuals that protect their hearts in order to survive. A horse brings them together but decisions have to be made. Will AIdan leave Harper to once again pursue his career in Ireland, or will he realize that life is more than accolades ?
An engaging story with complex characters as well as endearing animals.
I was entrusted a copy of this book by Netgalley. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

5 Star Review All Roads Lead to You (Stay #3) By Jennifer Probst  

The characters were strong and well developed, not only the main characters, but also the secondary characters who I hope get their own stories soon.

All Roads Lead To You is a well written, emotional story with  hot and sizzling scenes, as well as a great deal of humour and wonderful characters. I really liked Harper and Aidan from the start.

Harper Bishop runs a rescue farm for neglected and abused animals and is focused on returning her thoroughbred Phoenix back to health and perhaps to race. The only problem is she lacks the experience and skills needed to achieve this.

Aidan O’Connor is on vacation from Ireland staying at the Bishop family B & B and farm in New York’s Hudson Valley. He is trying to decide what is next in his future after parting walls with his ex partner. A horse trainer, he has the skills needed to help Harper train Phoenix to reach his potential.

Aidan and Harper connect from the first, but neither are prepared to open themselves up to the possibility of a relationship so they agree to focus on Phoenix. However as they get to know each other, they realise how much they have in common; with attraction and passion soon igniting.

Harper knows it is dangerous to develop feelings for Aidan, after all he will be going back to Ireland so any relationship can only be temporary. Will she take a chance and risk her heart?

Will Aidan’s lack of trust mean that he throws away the chance of love and happiness? Or will Phoenix and the other rescued animals help both Harper and Aidan to learn trust and find love?

I was captivated with this story from the first to the last chapter.

I received an ARC of this book through the publisher via Netgalley

She was complete all by herself. This is the first line that I highlighted in this book ( there were many more) but this one sets the tone. As a reader who loves horses, dogs and Ireland I was more than thrilled with this story line, the family, the business, the new and returning characters and the message of hope and redemption., Harper and Aidan both follow their heart and their roads intersect beautifully.

Jennifer Probst strikes gold again with this book. I loved all the characters, the settings and the story line. The characters are all well developed and the story caught my interest from the first page until the last. It has it all from humor, rescued animals, to love. Don't miss this one by Jennifer Probst!

WOW. All Roads Lead To You started out slow. A lot of internal dialogue from Harper’s (the heroine) point of view. I didn’t think it was going to work and I thought maybe this one wasn’t going to be a book I’d enjoy. At first, I thought Harper was a little too rough, but soon I was introduced to Aidan and I was charmed by his deep yet easy personality. The cast of characters for this story was amazing. I loved all the rescue animals at the farm. My favorites were Hei Hei and Captain Hoof. The story was reminiscent of Seabiscuit and Secretariat starring the wild and regal Phoenix. If you love stories about animals mixed in with hot romance, this is the story for you. Plus, as an added bonus, Probst uses some props from another one of her stories. This story was well told, and the characters leaped off the page for me. I didn’t want it to end. Now I have to go back and read the stories of Ophelia and Kyle and Ethan and Mia. I can see myself rereading this story many times and for me that shows how much this book meant to me. I will not spoil the story by telling you what l happens as I like not to give anything away. Bottom line: Give it a shot, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

All Roads Lead To You
Jennifer Probst
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Such a well written, well thought out and emotional story. I’m not a fan of horse stories, and horse racing, but this story has changed my mind. With in depth knowledge it was like a real story, well done Jennifer on a great look into a world that puts many people on edge. I know nothing about horses or racing, my lengths range from it has four kegs and neighs, to Melbourne Cup day in November…

“Something was coming”, I thighs this was going to be a murder mystery… imagine the sounds of jaws… yeah it wasn’t, but hell if it did t put me on the edge of my seat. Irish horse trainer Aidan O’Connor has travelled to the states to move in from a terrible past that haunts him. Now he’s staying at a B&B trying to put together a new future, for himself and the horse racing he had loved for so long.

“Something was coming”, poor Harper Bishop never saw it coming, or should I same him, she never saw him coming… that him is Aidan O’Connor, all sexy man, with his Irish accent and know all attitude. Harper has lived and loved the rescue Farm she owners along side her family B&B, the menagerie of animals from cats, dogs, chickens and her favourite horses. But when Aiden comes in with his take over attitude, Harper puts her hackles up, while swooning over his alpha male tendencies.

While visiting, Aiden discovers a horse on the farm, he shows all the signs of a magnificent race horse. Phoenix has had an aweful upbringing, but Aiden sees something- that something! Opening up Harper’s eyes to what can be is one thing, taking the journey together means spending maximum time together. Their journey is one of trust, love and gut feelings. Realism at its best, take the good with the bad, but for cantankerous Phoenix, it is a crazy goat in a chicken suit that full circle. Winning the races was the goal but winning the love of two who share so much passion, but different parts of the world, sometimes when something comes along you have to open your eyes to the possibilities and go with the waves….

Romance, wounded characters and wounded animals combine to make a lovely story. Aidan O’Connor has suffered a deep betrayal from his best friend and business partner. He has also lost his career as a top horse trainer in Ireland. He’s come to New York’s Hudson River Valley to recover. By chance he ends up at the Bed and Breakfast that Harper’s family runs along with the horse rescue ranch that she runs.

Harper has always figured that she isn’t cut out for romance, but she can’t help be attracted to the sexy Aidan who also shares her love of horses. Together they pair up to prepare the horse she and her brother had rescued to compete in the Triple Crown.

If you like tender romances between complex characters, you’ll enjoy this novel. And if you like a good horse story, you’ll also love this novel. Either way, this is a winner.

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book that I received from Netgalley; however, the opinions are my own and I did not receive any compensation for my review.

I loved every part of this couple’s journey to happiness - it’s a beautiful, raw and flawless relationship that starts as attraction and builds into something with so much depth. The story follows Aidan, an Irish horse trainer who has suffered a personal and professional setback, so he finds himself lost and wandering in New York, taking a vacation at a small horse rescue to get away from it all. It’s there that he meets Harper, one of the owners of the rescue whose troubled past makes her guarded (yes, there are some triggers here). Both Aidan and Harper find it much easier to connect with animals, and this becomes a major commonality between them. As they begin a professional relationship, they decide to ignore the attraction that sparks between them and focus on business since they have a long road ahead of them.

Aidan and Harper are both wounded souls, and their connection slowly pieces them back together - I absolutely loved everything about their relationship. Aidan is such a great guy, and he sees and respects Harper in a way that no one else has before. What makes this a 4-star book instead of a 5-star book (in my opinion), is the writing style itself. This is not a dialogue-based story; there’s so much internal text going on that a few parts dragged for me. It also gets a bit technical with all of the horse terminology and the racing subplot - I love animals, but this is not a short book in any way and I thought some of that could’ve been tightened up. That’s not to say that this is not a great book... I just think it would’ve been greater if some of that excess had been stripped away. Thank you, NetGalley, for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This is a deep, emotional and truly stunning love story that is most definitely worth a read.

The romance between Harper Bishop and Aidan O’Connor was an incredibly slow burn. These are two people who each have been burned by their painful past. They’re both loners who enjoy the companionship of animals over people. I found their characters to be relatable. The plot is what held my attention. Harper runs the family Horse rescue farm. She has a huge and tender heart when it comes to animals in need. Aidan is a professional horse trainer who was forced to leave Ireland to rebuild his reputation in the horse racing circuit. He convinces Harper and her siblings to hire him on in order to help train the beautiful horse Harper rescued, named Phoenix, who has severe behavioral issues.




Honestly, I was more invested in Phoenix’s story and the adorable friendship that develops between him and the sweet little goat that Harper and Aidan rescued from nearly being euthanized. I fell instantly in love with little Captain Hoof, with his anxiety issues and who only felt a sense of calmness when wearing a chicken costume and being near his best buddy Phoenix. Once Harper and Aidan stopped fighting their feelings for each other, I started to care about the couple as well. These two were perfect for each other and their little family of fur babies made the couple endearing. If you’re looking for a sweet and sexy romance with an engaging plot, this one is sure to please.




Here are my overall ratings:

Hero: 4
Heroine: 4
Plot: 4.5
Angst: 4
Steam: 4
Chemistry Between Hero & Heroine: 4.5

All Roads Lead to You hit me in the feels with the rescue animals. Captain Hoof especially.

Harper runs a rescue ranch and while she mostly has horses, there are a few other animals and I loved each and every one of them. The story is as much about them (Phoenix especially) as it is about Harper and Aidan. Harper is impossible not to like. She had a rough childhood and built an amazing life on it. While of course I was rooting for her and Aidan, I liked that she was strong on her own.

Aidan is Irish and 100% swoonworthy. He's not perfect, winning is everything to him, but he's pretty damn close. He sees Phoenix, bonds with him, and knows that he's meant to train him. I loved how this part worked out and that no matter what, the horse came first.

The side characters were also amazing. Harper's family is supportive and awesome. And Elmo the jockey was goofy and special and perfect for taking care of Phoenix.

Jennifer Probst does it again in her third book of the Stay series. With her gifted writing All Roads Lead To You is a sigh-worthy gritty romance that will leave you breathless. Probst weaves a story of strength and how letting go of past hurts can only make you stronger. I, personally, have a new love of horse racing and polish chickens. I'm not sure this is the last book in the series, as there was a teeny tiny tease at the end regarding a possible future couple 😉. Can't wait to see what's next.

ARC received for an honest review

YES! The next book in the Stay series is here - and it is my favourite in the series so far.

I have been waiting for Harper's story as I have read the first two books in the series, and Ms Probst has definitely not disappointed with All Roads Lead To You.

I have adored the time I have spent at the B & B and farm so far, and this time we get to spend a lot more time with Harper out in the barns. And oh my, if you thought Hei Hei was great in the previous books, you are going to love the Captain - I don't want to give anything away about them, but they had me laughing and smiling to much.

Then there is Aidan. Well, hello good Irish sir! What's not to love about you lol. I mean, if Harper doesn't want you, you can come Down Under and ... well.... you know.. down under 😛

As much as I do adore Aidan and Harper, for me this story really was about the animals. I can't help it, I just love them all and want to hug them and pet them and squeeze them and call them George.

I really would be quite useless on the farm hahah.

I was left smiling as I finished this book. After some emotion filled reads, this was just the thing I needed.

I can't wait to see what Ms Probst brings us next.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book is the final installment to the Stay series and they saved the best for last.

Harper was an interesting character in the first two books and it was clear that she wanted to surround herself with her animals. They loved her, she loved them back and she was especially passionate with her rescue horses. Harper endured her own heartbreak as a young girl and her wounded heart never really healed, until Aiden showed up.

Aiden is on a break from his business in Ireland and shows up at the Inn to relax, but the horses are calling him like a siren especially a rescue horse named Phoenix, who has a lot of potential to be a winner of the Kentucky Derby. Aiden is a trainer and has trained winners and appeals to Harper and her family to allow him to train Phoenix as he believes he has a strong chance to win the big races.

Harper and Aiden have chemistry but they want to keep their distance and focus on Phoenix's training. They're both afraid to take a leap and even after admitting their attraction, they decide it is best not to act on it. Their work spans over a year and as time passes, the walls that they have built up towards one another begin to crumble and they give in to their feelings. This is a sweet love story as Harper is so strong and stubborn, but you know she deserves love and so does Aiden. Their love of animals, especially with a rescue goat, makes you feel joy and you can't help a little laughter, too.

I loved this book and wished for more. Never a dull moment, an enjoyable read.

Didnt know til I finished that this is book 3 of series now need to find the first 2 so I can enjoy all of them. Enjoy the story and would recommend to all to read this one.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I've never been a huge fan of horses, but this book made them interesting. I especially liked that Harper was rescuing them from abusive situations. Aidan is a great counter to Harper, a horse trainer looking for the next horse that calls to him & has a winning spirit. They think they've found it in her most recent horse that she saved. Watching them develop him & seeing where their relationship goes is worth reading this book. I also love all of the other animals on the farm that had been saved, especially Hei Hei & Captain Hoof. Highly recommend it!
