I can't even tell you how much I enjoyed this book! Aiden was absolutely perfect for Harper. This book had everything, it was a great story but it made me laugh and cry. It was very well written and you really felt a part of the characters. You could understand how they were feeling and it was real. I loved how both Aiden and Harper learned so much about themselves along the journey, you could see and feel them growing individually and as a couple.
Aiden was amazing you could really hear his Irish brogue which made him impossibly sexier. I loved what he did for Harper, he made her confident and feel they way every one else sees her.
I thought this book was beautifully written and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Aiden & Harper’s romance was a slow burn one. I found it a little hard to get swept away with these two characters. I did find it to be an easy read.

I have not read the other two books in the series so I was a little nervous that I would be lost while reading, but I didn’t feel lost. I do plan to go back and read the first two books.

I voluntarily reviewed this book.

This is my first book by the author. I really enjoyed reading Ms. Probst's book. The characters were well developed and kept my interest. I liked the way Harper was an advocate for animals and made sure they were all well taken care of. I enjoyed that they named all the animals after Disney characters, sure made the animals no that they were important. Thanks for opportunity to review the book

It took me a lot longer than I hoped it would to get through this book, but once I found my footing, I was really enjoying Harper and Aidan's story. I loved what Harper's passion was and seeing all the animals she takes care of on the farm. Rescuing animals was something that constantly called to her soul and I loved that Jennifer was able to portray that effortlessly.

As sizzling as their chemistry was, I respected the kind of relationship that they wanted to hold. I didn't think it was going to take so long for them to get together, but it made for a slow burn kind of story. So it's definitely a kind of story that we've read before.

There was an instance where I was a bit nervous that Jennifer was going to add a bit of drama, but I was so very thankful that she didn't.

I thought it was a neat story, I know very little when it comes to racing horses. But thought it was great foundation for Aidan's and Harper's story. This series has been a bit of a battle and I still can't pinpoint what exactly it is that's holding me back from completely loving it.

All Roads Lead to You is my favorite in the series so far and I will continue to read the next ones.

Captain Hoof stole the show! Hands down the best secondary character in this book and he isn't even human! Besides his awesome name, his adorable description, and his gentle soul, he is a hero! As much as I want my to tell you all his awesomeness, you are more worried about the book...for now.

All Roads Lead to You is a truly romantic story. A hiding in plain sight romance. Fighting the chemistry, fighting the friendship, keep it professional kind of romance. The unavoidable, unstoppable, inevitable romance that both keeps you warm and make who I wish for more. (Also, I might suggest tissues.) Animal lovers, even the kind that only love fictional animals, will be highly entertained with the antics in these pages. It was also fun to learn about racing.

The best thing about All Roads Lead to You (other than Captain Hoof) was the love oozing from the pages. It is not possible not to be taken in by the voice whispering in your ear...FOREVER.

Enjoy Aiden and Harper! This story deserves a placing in the race right next to Phoenix. A ring of roses for the happy couple!

This is beautiful love story where Aiden and Harper bond over their love of horses. Harper operates a horse rescue where she was able to save a potential race horse, Phoenix. Aiden is travelling the US after being pushed out of racing in his home country Ireland. As soon as Aiden sees the horse, he knows that it can be a winner. Harper agrees to let him train the horse and the two have an undeniable connection.

Slow burn, instant attraction, afraid to give into temptation, animal lover romantic readers will likely enjoy this horse racing themed tale. It features a destined to be together main couple, Aidan and Harper, who connect and bond over their common interest in horses and big dreams.

With cameos of all the characters and even one feisty chicken from the previous two books, the whole gang is here, folks. They added to the “feels like the home I’ve always wanted” pull that lured Aidan to let his wanderlust soul and feet stick around long enough to work his Irish magic on Harper’s rescue race horse.

As usual this author held my attention and had me holding my breath until enough was enough and these two wanna be lovebirds finally allowed themselves to temporarily have what they thought they never would. Fortunately for us and them, love had bigger, long term plans for them. Brace yourself for the graphic steamy smexy scenes that occur in the latter half of the book as all that pented up chemistry and passion gets unleashed.

I must say I didn’t understand why the jockey was scripted to talk so peculiar (like a caveman). For me, it detracted needlessly from his character. Sure, I could see making him stand out somewhat eccentric with his unique way of connecting with horses. Honestly though, I was embarrassed for this side sub-character. I lowered my rating one star because of it and for the reason revealed Harper never wanted to marry and have children. It just didn't seem drastic enough to reach that sort of decision.

Here’s to hoping the upcoming release of “Something Just Like This” will be as equally entertaining and romantic. It will feature a NY governor wanna be and his off limits assistant, who travels with him to this upstate horse farm.

Book 1 - The Start of Something Good
Book 2 - A Brand New Ending
Book 3 - All Roads Lead to You
Book 3.5 - Something Just Like This

Title: All Roads Lead to You, Series: Stay (Book 3), Author: Jennifer Probst, Pages: 329, stand-alone but part of a series, slow burn, very graphically steamy later in the book, something to prove good guy hero, animal rescuer heroine, no love triangle, no OW/OM drama, no cheating, romance safe, no cameos of past lovers, strong, sassy heroine, horse racing backdrop.

(I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I was not given any payment or compensation for this review, nor is there any affiliation or relationship between this reviewer and the author/publisher/NetGalley.)

This is the third and final book in the Stay series. While technically it can be read as a stand alone novel, I recommend reading the series in order simply because the books are that good. Having seen how happy her siblings are, Harper can't help but feel a bit lonely. But Harper also prefers animals to people because they don't have the power to hurt her as has happened in the past. However, when she meets Aiden, she recognizes him as someone who has also been hurt but who has also dedicated his life to animals. And even though there is lots of chemistry between them, they both try for the sake of their shared passion in Phoenix, to avoid that chemistry.
Like previous books by Jennifer Probst, there is plenty of emotional baggage from the characters but there is also just enough humor to keep the story from getting too heavy. All in all, a terrific read which will suck you into the story from the first page.

All Roads Lead to You
by Jennifer Probst


All Roads Lead To You is a soulful marvel of a book, one that takes hold of you, that grips and you never ever want to let it go!
Wow!!! I thought I read every from author Jennifer Probst, that quite honestly would make my knees buckle and leave my heart full of love!
But there's nothing like “All Roads Lead to You” at all!!
I can say I was utterly blown away by the depth and soul in this novel!
FYI if you need more of Harper and Aidan then check out the audiobook.

I have read all three books of this series and I have enjoyed all three for different reasons. The first book, I could definitely feel for Ethan and his issues and absolutely loved Mia's type A personality. The second book was my favorite. Ophelia and Kyle's story touched me the most, along with Kyle's father and his story. However, as much as it makes sense that Harper's story revolved around animals, I felt that as well written and heartfelt as this book was, it fell short of my expectations, having read the two prior books. Yes, the animals needed to take a more pertinent role in Harper's story, but I felt that they took over the book and it left me wanting more of Aidan and Harper as a couple. A solid read for Ms. Probst, even if it left me wanting more.

5 Stars

What a beautiful story of love, beauty and determination. Harper is the ultimate animal lover. Rescuing animals of all kinds is in her blood and in her soul. When she rescues a stubborn horse that she knows is something very special, made for more than living a life of relaxation and safety on her family’s farm, it causes her to cross paths with a man who will change her life forever. Aidan O’Connor has a talent for training racehorses and is ready to give up on finding that special one that will change his career...then he sees Harper ride Phoenix while staying at the family’s B&B. What follows is a path of struggle, care, hard work and teamwork like none you have read. Both of these beautiful souls have secrets but through the desire to create a winner in Phoenix, they manage to find the person that can heal both of their hearts.

Like the other books in this series, this was a great read. This author is so good with emotions. She always gives me goosebumps and I feel all the stuff! Great characters, especially the animals. I hope there'll be a story about Chloe and Owen.

I’ve really enjoyed the Stay series by Jennifer Probst and All Roads Lead to You just hit me in the feels for multiple reasons!

We’ve met Harper Bishop in the first book The Start of Something New and I’ve really been intrigued by her. She is the youngest sister in the Bishop family, and she is a veterinarian. And what I really love most about the Stay series are the animals! Hei Hei and Charlie are my faves, and of course, Captain Hoof! Probst does a good job integrating animals in her books! My other faves are Robert and Pinky in her Searching For series.

I’m also a sucker for a hero with an accent and Aidan has an Irish accent (I mean, I can just imagine his accent right now, which is why I am planning to listen to the audiobook version). Not only that, I am a fan of the broody ones!

The romantic between Aidan and Harper was a bit of a slow start and had the will they/won’t they thing going on. Of course, both of them only wanted to remain friends while they were working together. The sparks were flying between them, though and they couldn’t help it.

While there were emotional scenes in All Roads Lead to You, I also ended up giggling in certain scenes. Most often when the animals were present! Probst really knows how to add pet in books (YES, I said this again – see above).

I haven’t checked Probst’s website yet, but I am hoping that Chloe will get her HEA! I’m even okay that it will be a novella!

While I wanted to love this book as much as the other two books in the series, there was something missing that I can’t seem to put a finger on. I think the an audio “reread” is in order for this book because it’s a dual narration and I really need the accents to get me really into a story.

3.75 stars--ALL ROADS LEAD TO YOU is the third instalment in Jennifer Probst’s contemporary adult STAY erotic, romance series. This is rescue farm owner Harper Bishop, and Irish horse trainer Aidan O’ Connor’s story line. ALL ROADS LEAD TO YOU can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information form the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Harper and Aidan) ALL ROADS LEAD TO YOU follows horse trainer, Irishman Aidan O’Connor as he looks for his next challenge. Having left Ireland under mysterious circumstance, Aidan finds himself in New York’s Hudson Valley, at the Bishop family B&B, where his future is about to change. Enter animal rescuer and rehabber Harper Bishop, and the woman with whom Aidan will fall in love. What ensues is the professional and romantic relationship between Aidan and Harper, and the potential fall –out as neither one is looking for a permanent relationship beyond the present.

Harper Bishop struggles with Phoenix, a difficult horse whose abusive past has left him skittish and broken. Meeting Aidan O’Connor finds Harper reconsidering Phoenix’s future, as well as her own future with the man with whom she will fall in love. As Aidan begins training Phoenix for a run at the Derby, Harper begins to let down the walls surrounding her heart.

The relationship between Aidan and Harper is one of immediate attraction but neither one is in a place for romance or love. Aidan has been burned by his former partner, and lover; and Harper’s past doesn’t allow her to trust the ministrations of a man who is only in America for a limited time. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are reintroduced to Harper’s sister and B&B owner Ophelia Bishop and Kyle Kimpton (A Brand New Ending#2), Ethan Bishop and his wife Mia: f summer ranch hands Chloe, and newcomer Owen; Aidan’s former business partner Colin Flynn, as well as a assortment of townsfolk and busybodies.

ALL ROADS LEAD TO YOU is a story of family, friendship, struggle and promise. The premise is engaging and entertaining: the romance is seductive and captivating: the characters are energetic, cautious and hopeful.

Perfect summer reading, heartwarming, emotional, fun and engaging romance filled with witty banter, reluctant charters, undeniable passion and exciting chemistry..... was a great read from beginning to end and so hard to put down. Really love this series and all the hard not to love charters in it! Loved this journey!

I loved the book. There wasn't any big conflict in the book but that worked for me. I am not a animal person so I wasn't sure how I will feel about ALL the animals in the book but the author wrote them as characters with their own personality so it worked.
I liked how the relationship developed with both of them making a conscious choice of getting into it and being committed to not let it impact their professional relationship. It felt very mature and grown-up.
I loved how they talked about everything to each other.

All Roads Lead to You is the third stand-alone novel in the Stay series by Jennifer Probst. Harper is a familiar person to those who have read the previous books and Aidan is a brand new addition from Ireland. Harper works with the rest of her family in a B&B and with her brother, they take care of the horses and arrange riding activities for the guests of the B&B. Aidan used to train horses for races but after a fall out with his ex-business partner, he decided to take a breather and find himself once again. His journey takes him to America and leads him to the B&B Harper's family owns and that's how their story begins. Harper and Aiden didn't have the best beginning, but Aiden is insistent as Harper is stubborn and he forced his way into her stables, which brought them closer.

There a lot of animals present in this story and they almost stole the spotlight! Harper has a cat, a lot of dogs, the horses and of course there is Hei Hei who is the official mascot of the series. Another guy joins the team later on and I loved him almost the most. Hei Hei is da bomb, no questions asked, but the other little guy was pure gold. Honestly, they are reason enough for me to recommend the book.

Aidan's reluctance to admit the whole truth from the beginning was understandable at first, but as the story was going on, it became irritating because I had a feeling that it was going to be the reason of the conflict. At least Harper made me happy with the ways she was reacting.

Overall, the book was great! I liked the main characters despite Aidan's hesitation to reveal the truth and I loved the animals that had a strong presence in the book. The couples from the previous books also appear and it was fun to have them since they had some funny dialogs and I love having past main characters appear because I can catch up to them.

Great read. The author wrote a story that was interesting and moved at a pace that kept me engaged. The characters were easy to invest in.

This is the first book I have read from Jennifer Probst and it certainly won't be my last. After meeting Jennifer and her lovely husband at some signings in this last year I was looking forward to reading one of her books.

This is the last instalment in the Stay Series and Harper's story. It can be read as a standalone but like me, once you have read this one you will want to go back and read the other two books.

I loved Harper and Aiden. The chemistry between them was electric and I simply loved the slow burn between them. They took their time being together after denying their chemistry at first, they knew once they had one taste it would it could possible break them as one touch would never be enough. They both have so much fear which is getting in the way.

Once I started this book I was hooked. Jennifer made me laugh with the wit in this book. The animals honestly had me in fits, especially Hei Hei and the Captain. Aiden made me swoon lots.

I finished this book with a huge smile on my face. It was a nice sweet romance.

I have really enjoyed this series so far. Each book was a prime example of Jennifer's writing ability and the way she is skilled at writing swoon worthy romance.

It pains me to say that this one (to me) doesn't live up to the rest of the series. It read really slow for me. I liked the premise of the book but the horse training, shows, etc took away from the romance and relationship. I think, with all of that, it was why the chemistry didn't show till maybe the last part of the book. I need it from the beginning to get invested in the main characters relationship.

I liked Aiden and Harper but together I had trouble getting behind them. Harper was a little harder and angry/bitter than her siblings. They were stubborn but still had a lot of heart. She never seemed to have the same heart as they did. She needed to loosen up a bit. I like my women strong in my romance books but she was too strong to a point that it kinda killed the chemistry.

Besides this one being probably more of a "me not you thing." I can see people enjoying this one but it just didn't click for me. I love Jennifer's work. Her Marriage To A Billion series. I reread that one maybe once a year. The first one in that series, The Marriage Bargain, is one I consider the gold standard for my favorite trope (Arranged Marriage/Fake Relationship). I look forward to her next book, this one just was a miss for me.
