Learn Your Lesson by Kandi Steiner — ARC given by Good Girl PR

Okay can I first start out by saying I GASPED when I got the email that I was going to be gifted this ARC. Kandi is one of my favorites — I’ve only read one of her hockey series but I love how she tells a story, I love her instagram presence, I just want to be friends with her every time she posts something I love! I hope this is the first of many ARCs I get from her!

Let’s dive in..

Learn Your Lesson is book 3 of the Kings of Ice series which you all know I LOVE me some hockey romances — It picks right back up from book 2 & if I’m gonna be honest I have been really excited for this one. I love a single dad trope book & of course he is the moodiest single dad there is which… whew! can’t handle it!

Will Perry aka Daddy P -nickname given by his hockey teammates is a single father to Ava. He has been a single dad since she was a little over 1 month old. We knew his wife had died from the previous books but not 100% of the details. Will is obviously not up to sharing anything & keeps himself & his feelings in like a locked safe. Enter Chloe to the chat. She is a bubbly, sweet, kindergarten teacher who loves her 3 cats & was raised by her grandmother & mom who basically both hate men.

Chloe is Ava’s teacher, Will needs a nanny after many failed attempts with others… Chloe offers & does amazing things for their family. Tension rises between Chloe & Will (something Will hasn’t experienced with someone else in a long time) — they decide to make a deal, no strings attached, etc until they both catch feelings (which are we surprised?) …. You’ll have to read to see if they can make it through Will’s dramatic past & Chloe’s past of hating men & thinking things that are too good to be true couldn’t actually happen…

Learn Your Lesson is spicy, deep, heartbreaking, funny, & you still get the wonderful friend dynamic like you get in the other books between the guys of course but also from the girls! The fact that the Chloe is welcomed into this hockey world, no questions asked.. is seriously so wonderful to see. This is my favorite from this series & I can’t wait for the next one later this year!

Tropes: Hockey romance, single dad/nanny, forced proximity, spicy lessons, grumpy/sunshine, age gap, opposites attract & found family.
