About this listen
THIS JUST IN: HOCKEY BAD BOY AND POP STAR EXTRAORDINAIRE ENGAGED!
That was the headline we'd wanted. If only I’d known the cost to get it.
Aleksander Suter has been my best friend since high school—and the only man who’s ever been able to truly get under my skin. With his reputation for trouble and a smirk that could melt ice, he’s also the NHL’s favorite bad boy.
When my publicist’s plan to fix my image collides with his need to clean up his own, we find ourselves in a fake engagement that feels too real from the start.
Now, I’m releasing my new album, putting on a show for the paparazzi I usually try to dodge, and falling too fast for a man who never falls for anyone. Every stolen glance, every heated touch blurs the lines between us until I’m wondering where the lies end and the truth begins.
And when a hurricane traps us together in his high-rise condo, all my carefully built walls collapse, and resisting the pull between us becomes a losing game.
Suddenly, the stakes are higher than just headlines, and the risks feel more personal than ever.
But as our past resurfaces and old feelings reignite, I realize the biggest risk isn’t losing my career—it’s losing my heart to the one person I thought would never be mine.
Save Your Breath is book four in the Kings of the Ice series: a series of interconnected standalones following a team of professional hockey players and the women who bring them to their knees. They do not need to be listened to in order, but you will gain glimpses of future characters/couples in each book.

Story
Fighting wildfires is the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do and I’m damn good at it. Being the captain of an interagency hotshot crew of wildland firefighters is high-risk, high-reward. The risk blindsided me five years ago when I lost one of my crew and was changed forever. Now the only rewards I allow are to work harder, smarter, and enjoy easy, sexy nights with strangers. Until I meet Prescott Timmons. Her smart-mouth and adventurous spirit have me forgetting all of my rules—until her past shows up and lies start to feel too familiar.

Story
Knox Holland is in a jam. After an incredible first year on the pro motocross circuit, he should be on top of the world. Instead, his bad reputation has landed him without a team. He's untouchable and desperate to turn it around. Which is how he ends up at my gym asking me to train him. As a college gymnast with two Olympic medals to my name, I know a thing or two about the pressure to succeed. Last season I choked and then injured myself before I could show the world that I'm not a twenty-year-old has-been.

Whip King cannot be the man for me. Cocky, pierced firefighters are perfect for late-night rom-coms, but in real life they’re nothing but trouble. Especially when you find out they work for your dad—after you’ve already slept with them. Moving to my parents’ small town was supposed to be the fresh start I was looking for. When a disastrous Valentine’s Day leads to an unexpected encounter with a sexy stranger, and ends with the hottest night of my life, I didn’t think I would ever see Whip again.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

Story
Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

If I had known how irrevocably my life was about to change, I would have walked the other way after talking to my coach. I should have taken any other route out of the Toronto Terror head office. But I didn’t and now–everything is different. At first I didn’t recognize the woman doing a victory dance down the hall when she thought no one was watching. Until she turned around. And that beautiful smile was aimed at me.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

For a long time now, I’ve despised Weston Shaw. He’d been someone I’d admired, taking my favorite football team, the Colorado Mustangs, to the Super Bowl. But that all turned upside down after one night that had nothing to do with me. We share one undeniable connection: his son, Caleb. Unfortunately, the circumstances behind that have never been my story to tell. But now, the truth is out, and I’m left to deal with the consequences. I’m living under the same roof as Weston, and each day, I discover a side of him I never expected.

My name is Jupiter Reeves, and I am a fraud. It's not that what's written about me isn't true. I am the greatest third baseman of my generation, possibly ever. I am surly and unapproachable. I do have a constant scowl with an armor of tattoos. To the outside world, I play my role as the bad boy of baseball like I was born to do it. But when the doors are closed, and you boil it down, I'm nothing more than a man who lost his heart too young, with no prospect of getting it back... especially as I still have no idea where its current owner is.

A forbidden romance with my brother’s hockey teammate wasn’t on my to-do list when I moved across the country… Neither was getting locked out of a friend’s place wearing next to nothing. Or spending the night with the sexy stranger who rescues me. But I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone so getting out of the rest of my clothes with him seems like a good way to start. In the morning, I learn the filthy-mouthed man with the talented hands is not only the hotshot new hockey player on my brother’s team: he’s also–wait for it–my brand new roommate.

I’ve always been a wild card–the first to start a fight on the ice, and the life of the party off it–but appearances can be deceiving. Being traded to the Boston Rebels could not have come at a better time. With serious family obligations to fulfill and a contract renewal with a new hockey team on the line, I have no time for anything else. I return to Boston knowing I need to buckle down and focus on what really matters.

Lennox Kennedy is beautiful, loud, and the love of my life. She's also my ex-girlfriend. The first time I saw her after ten years apart, I slammed into the plexiglass minutes before our game was set to begin. The second time I threw up. The third time's a charm apparently because as my fiancée and I walked into an appointment to meet the woman hired to plan our nuptials—there she was again. Obviously, I did what any smart man would do—I called off the wedding. I don't have a plan per se, other than winning back the only girl I've ever loved.

Now, he’s here in Birchwood Springs, fighting to save his family’s struggling logging company. And somehow, he’s probably my only shot at keeping my inheritance.

Jon Paul Dumont is everything I was warned about in this league—talented, entitled, and fully aware of both. The NHL's favorite bad boy has left a trail of broken hearts from Montreal to San Diego, and a year ago, I was stupid enough to become one of them. Now he's signed with my father's team, the Seattle Hawkeyes, attempting a comeback after a career-threatening injury and a DUI charge that got him dropped from the Blue Devils.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

It’s not easy being a woman working in a male dominated field. Add in the fact that my uncle owns the baseball team I work for, and proving I belong here is a constant battle. Dating a player was never an option. Not if I wanted to keep a shred of dignity and respect. Then Ronan Sinclair sits down next to me in first class with his alluring blue eyes and hard-to-resist dimples. To say nothing of his kindness and charm, or his determination to convince me that a steamy vacation fling is what we both need.

Story
Our lives were like a story, predestined for us by the hands of some writer we didn't know. We were given a beginning and end, and some of us endured a climax like a roller coaster that shook and jerked us around, testing us in the process. In my story, I thought I knew what to expect. That was until a hot-shot hockey player with sweet words and an even kinder soul changed my course. It took everything in me not to fall for him, but unwanted emotions were developing, and warmth I swore I'd never expose myself to began to wreak havoc on my already failing heart.

Story
A forbidden romance with my brother’s hockey teammate wasn’t on my to-do list when I moved across the country… Neither was getting locked out of a friend’s place wearing next to nothing. Or spending the night with the sexy stranger who rescues me. But I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone so getting out of the rest of my clothes with him seems like a good way to start. In the morning, I learn the filthy-mouthed man with the talented hands is not only the hotshot new hockey player on my brother’s team: he’s also–wait for it–my brand new roommate.

Sweet and Spicy
- By Mysti Ubeda on 09-11-24
By: Lauren Blakely
These two were so protective and sweet with one another, while also having the most hilarious banter. I loved their chemistry and love. I often wanted to shake them both just to talk to one another about their feelings but, their pride and fear got in the way. When Aleks does speak his truth, I swooned at his beautiful words. A great steamy slow-burn!

Save Your Breath is a slow burn with a payoff that’s both broke my heart and set everything on fire. And while the burn is slow (65% or so), it’s also a fake relationship romance so there are lots of delicious, chemistry filled “staged” kisses and ridiculously romantic scenes that kept me more than happy to bask in the glow before ignition. I’ll admit, fake anything is like catnip to me, so I knew I was going to be sucked in. But I was blown away by the nakedly honest pull of Aleks’ story and the combined ache of the two of them. I found myself wishing I could step into the story to ease their pain and help them understand. It was angsty without being trite and it made every touch, kiss and glance that much more charged. The spice is seriously bossy and absolutely epic. The romance had me completely in my feels. The friendship between Mia and Aleks, their growth and willingness to sacrifice for each other, are spot on and make Save Your Breath one of my favorite listens of the year.
Meet Aleks. He’s growly. He’s hot. He plays hockey. And he’s been in love with Mia since he was 16. Swiss-German, Aleks’ foster mom sends him to billet with Mia’s family. And she’s seriously off-limits. Daddy says so. Mia is a singer/songwriter whose shy high school personality blooms into a pop star with charisma and poise, but she doesn’t get a lot of privacy and Aleks is fiercely protective of her. Her new album is releasing and an old boyfriend and his music reviewing friend seem to keep causing static and trying to taint her release. Aleks needs to clean up his bad boy, fighter vibe and Mia needs to look like she’s moved on and is above the fray. And a fake relationship is born. If you want to be swept off your feet by the grumpiest hockey player in the league, who has the softest spot for the girl he loves, this is your book. 100% recommend. 5 stars for performance and story. 3 peppers. Plus, that epilogue!!
Yes, it’s that good.

Fantastic on Audio! 🎧
These two were so perfect for each other! This book was so angsty & the burn was slow!! Mia & Alek have been best friends and have both carried deeper feelings for one another since their high school years. But things are complicated. Alek came to America to have a shot at the NFL, and he was taken in by Mia’s family. But Alek has a rough background that has made him feel less than & he struggles with his mental health. Years later, after they have both achieved their dream jobs, they decide to fake date with hopes to improve their image and careers. We all know how that story goes! 😉 I also loved all the cameos with the characters from previous books in this series and Red Zone Rivals!! This is book 4 of Kings of the Ice series, but can be read as a complete standalone. Also, if you like audio books, you need to listen to this one!! Kandi has included a song that is performed on the audiobook!
Thank you Kandi Steiner for the ARC & ALC!

Kandi has this series getting better and better!
Mia is a pop star singer who is trying to show the world that she isn’t still hung up over her ex from what the tabloids are saying. So she decides to get fake engaged to her best friend.
Aleks is in trouble with his job because he can’t seem to stop fighting off the ice.
His agent thinks that it would be a good idea for him to have this fake engagement to help better his reputation.
Oh my how I love a fake relationship book! Aleks and Mia have secretly like each other since they were teenagers and it was never the right moment and thoughts that they feelings wouldn’t be reciprocated. Loved, loved, loved this book!!!!!
So Good!!!!

If you are a famous pop star Mia Love (AKA Mia Conaway)…then a fake engagement and yep, you would.
This Hockey Player/famous singer romance was one of my favorite fake “REAL-ATIONSHIPS”, fake engagement reads to date! I am not a huge fan of this trope, but this is not only one of my favorite reads this year, but also one of my favorites from this author, Kandi Steiner. I FELT THIS BOOK!
Aleksander Suter, NHL goalie, remembers Mia as a younger girl, while he was boarding with her family and she was jotting lyrics down in a notebook. This is also when he had to fight off feelings he had for her, but never let go of. When he agrees to this agreement, he just wanted to do whatever he could to be close to her and heal her pain…not realizing it may turn into more pain for both of them.
I loved the characters and the honest-to-goodness heartbreak I felt while reading Save Your Breath. The tears I cried while reading this and the genuine love I felt…I just cannot recommend this enough! I just also have to add…this is one of the absolute BEST proposals I have ever read!!!
**Audio book**
Talia Wilkerson Grove and Walker Williams were great to listen to. They were great narrators for this book and I loved the extra level they brought to the characters.

Aleks & Mia were everything I wanted them to be and more. If there is something you should know about Kandi's writing it's that she is going to make you FEEL every single thing her characters are. Save Your Breath was no exception. I not only read this one with my eyes, but I was lucky enough to receive an early listen to the audio & whoa....Talia Wilkerson Grove & Walker Williams really brought these two characters to life.
Definitely a 5 star read & definitely a contender for my top reads of 2025 already. ;)
Another excellent book from Kandi Steiner!

NGL, I spilled lots of tears while reading this book. Sometimes sad tears, sometimes happy tears. It is very much a slow burn, and an emotional journey of acceptance, growth and hope.
Mia and Aleks are best friends. They share a past and very special, emotional moments. They can read each other like no one else ever could. They are bound to one another in many different ways, through shared secrets and experiences.
They are true soulmates, never quite able to get close to others, always missing something when life forces them apart.
There is nothing more beautiful than watching these 2, who quietly pined for one another since the day they met, finally accept and admit their feelings 🫶
The 🎧audiobook🎧 narration for this is absolutely breathtaking and a must. The narrators are both spectacular!! Mia also sings a song in it, an ACTUAL SONG sang by a professional singer, and it gave me chills!! I legit sobbed 🥹 lol.
I highly recommend this audiobook, I promise you won't regret it 🫠❤️
Perfection!! And the chills from that beautiful love song... 🫠
