Book Description:
All bets are off in this heartfelt romance by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst.
Happily single, Harper Bishop trusts in only one passion—her rescue farm and healing her thoroughbred, Phoenix. Her dream is to lead him to the Triple Crown. But how unreachable is it without experience or help? A handsome new guest at her family’s B&B has what it takes to make it come true. And with his irresistible brogue, warm smile, and soothing touch, he’s a major distraction.
After a bitter betrayal, horse trainer Aidan O’Connor has fled Ireland for a vacation in New York’s Hudson Valley. When he sees the horse with the fighting spirit, he’s inspired with a new goal: to train Phoenix to win. He’s also facing an unexpected new challenge: his feelings for Harper.
How can she dare to open her heart to a man who’ll be there only long enough to break it?
So Harper and Aidan agree: try to keep it professional, and focus only on Phoenix and the finish line. But along the way, they could also learn a few lessons in love, trust, and taking chances. And, as painful as it promises to be, saying goodbye.

Vikki’s Musings
All Roads Lead to You by Jennifer Probst is a great addition to the Stay series. When I received an invitation from the publisher, via Net-Galley, I eagerly accepted since I’ve read the first two in the series. My opinions are my own and are not influenced in any way.
I quickly became engaged in the story. I remembered the heroine from the previous books, and I was so glad when I realized All Roads Lead to You was Harper’s story. The novel follows her desire to heal Phoenix, an abused race horse she believes has the ability to win the triple crown. The story is well written and emotionally charged. The pacing is excellent and kept me engaged from the first page to the last.
Harper Bishop’s character is endearing. Her tenacity and determination to save abused and neglected animals is amazing. While she has always guarded her heart and never expected to fall in love, she can’t resist her new horse trainer with dark Irish good looks and his gentle manner with her beloved animals.
Aidan O’Connor is a great hero. His determination to train Phoenix so he can race, borders on obsession, but in a good way. He doesn’t give up when the horse bulks in his first race. Instead, he is driven to find out what is causing his issues, and he does. He’s no more ready for a relationship than Harper is. Afterall, he’s been betrayed by his ex-lover, and his best friend.
The chemistry is strong between Harper and Aidan and sparks fly from their first meeting and only grow stronger as the story progresses. They might have wanted to only have a professional relationship, but the passion is way too strong for either of them to deny. I really wanted them to find a way to make it work.
If you enjoy contemporary romance with plenty of heart and great characters, then you will love All Roads Lead to You. Not only is it a great love story, the animals will steal your heart, especially the goat. Happy reading!
