Learn Your Lesson

Kings of the Ice

De: Kandi Steiner

Narrado por: Hannah Chiclana, Max Lindsey

My mother only wanted me to learn one lesson growing up

Men are trash.

Her father left her, and then my father left us. Being raised by her and my grandmother, I was surrounded by the reminder to be independent and guard my heart.

After my one and only experience with a boy in college fell flatter than a pancake, I realized they were right and I was content to live the life of a twenty-six-year-old cat lady.

Until Will Perry blew my quiet world to smithereens.

Starting goalie for the Tampa Bay Ospreys and the kind of hot that scrambles your brain, all I was ever supposed to be to him was his daughters kindergarten teacher. Then, in a twist of events, his temporary nanny.

But temporary turns to permanent, and when I move into his pool house, everything changes.

He's impossibly grumpy and focused on only two things: hockey, and taking care of his daughter. I'm only focused on using this new income to pay back my student loans.

But in that house, I feel his heated gaze beneath that permanent scowl, the way it lingers and warms my skin. And though I know my mother would lose her mind if she knew, my dreams have become midnight fantasies about my long-haired, muscle-lined mystery of a boss.

When the tension becomes too much, we break, and we make a deal.

He still needs a nanny. I still need a paycheck and for my matriarchy to not disown me. But Will agrees to teach me everything I've always wanted to learn, and I'm all too eager to be his student.

I can do this. I'm a grown woman. I can explore my sexuality with the hottest goalie on earth and still remain one-hundred percent professional. And I can definitely do it all without catching feelings.

I have to.

Otherwise, I'll end up heartbroken in my mothers arms while she shakes her head and asks me if Ill ever learn my lesson.

“I Guess we’re really doing our best”❤️

Kandi Steiner hasn’t let me down yet. Found family, Single dad nanny, grumpy sunshine, Steamy lessons what more can I ask for. Chloe is the best person in the world and she brings the magic to Daddy’s P (Will) and Abha’s world.

Well written

Beautiful love story and lots of spice. Excellent voice for the audiobook. Very nice storyline

Excellent narration

These narrators are top notch
Hannah is my favorite female narrator in the last 3 years of listening

The story is FIRE it’s so so spicy

Chloe is #1 in my heart

Kandi has done it again! I devoured this story. This was my first time listening to a narration by Max Lindsey and i was extremely impressed! He fully embodied Will’s grumpiness and performed so, so well. Hannah is one of my favorite narrators and she did not let me down with her performance of Chloe! My full review will be on Goodreads/Amazon!

Nice!

Really nice story with good writing and believable dialogue. The narrators did an excellent job as well. The hockey aspect doesn’t overtake the book, which I appreciate. The romance happens at a really good speed, along with the angst you would expect. The single dad aspect is also really well done, as well as the amount of time spent bringing Ava (daughter) into MCs romance. Also an appropriate amount of sexy times that are hot! Really well done.

The beautiful complex relationship.

Loved the storyline and all the heated interaction. Both dreaming and promising. Teased and pleased my own imagination with ease.

Felt the emotions

Speechless is the best way to describe how this book leaves me. The previous 2 books in this series introduce the quiet team goalie, Will Perry (aka Daddy P). He comes across as the tame wise one that always has a good head on his shoulders. Boy oh boy was I misled. Not that he isn't wise, but I wouldn't use tame to ever describe him after this book. I'm unsure I'll ever look at a popsicle the same again.

I've read and listened to this book. Both are perfect. The narrators hit the mark with the audiobook. They not only read the story but also make you feel the story.

Will is a single father after his wife passed away. He can't seem to find a nanny for his daughter, Ava, without ulterior motives. Luckily Ava's teacher, Chloe, is able to help him out when a nanny doesn't pick Ava up from school. Chloe offers to help out with Ava since she really doesn't have anything else going on in her life.

After moving into the guest house and setting the goal to make Ava and Will smile/laugh at some point, Chloe starts to wiggle her way into their lives without trying. Her fun personality, her creative outfits, her a-hole cats… they're all qualities that Will finds interesting.

Daddy P makes his appearance when he offers to make an arrangement with Chloe. No emotions, no friendship, no kissing. Just hooking up. That's all. And do you think either of them can keep those rules? All I can say is get this book and find out for yourself. You won't regret it. There are some rather interesting (and fun) spicy scenes throughout this book that will not disappoint.

Grumpy x sunshine, single dad x nanny, hockey romance!

Learn Your Lesson is a single dad x nanny, grumpy x sunshine, hockey romance part of Kandi Steiner’s Kings of the Ice series. The first book and this third book in the series are definitely my favorites.

Will is a gruff, hockey player, who the team affectionately have coined “Daddy P” as he takes care of them but also is an actual single dad to his daughter Ava. He lost his wife shortly after Ava was born and his life hasn’t been the same since, now his focuses are his daughter and hockey. When the story kicks off, Will has been having issues keeping a nanny, so when Chloe, Ava’s kindergarten teacher rolls in so effortlessly and gets along with his daughter so well, he feels like he found the perfect nanny replacement!

Chloe is a kindergarten teacher who loves her job and always dreamed of romance, falling in love, and having a family of her own one day. Instead, her social life is nonexistent and she lives with her 3 cats. She grew up with a mom and grandma who both were left and have told Chloe her whole life that all men leave and to not trust their promises. She ends up working for Will and caring for Ava while he’s busy with hockey and she quickly falls for this adorable little family. Soon Will and Ava are feeling all the things and we get loads of steam, spicy lessons, and a no-strings attached type of setup.

This was a fun, easy one to breeze through and I loved that it was Kandi’s first single dad romance! After seeing Will throughout the series, it was fun to finally get his story, especially for the popsicle scene alone! Iykyk 🤭

Single dad/ nanny romance

I enjoyed this one in the series. I have always been a fan of the "lessons" trope and I felt like this one was enjoyable. It is also a nanny X single dad romance and I loved the daughter she was so cute and made this book even more fun. The hero Will has a grumpy attitude but softens a lot for his daughter and the heroine. The heroine Chloe is the daughter's teacher and now also her nanny. She is kinda a loner she loves her cats and her hobbies but has never been the girl with lots of friends. I liked how she opened up and grew close to the hero's chef and his teammate's girlfriends. I didn't feel as connected to this romance as I would have liked but it was still a good book and I would recommend it.

Tropes: single dad, sex lessons, nanny, forced proximity

Daddy P please!!

Who doesn’t love the single dad falling for the nanny trope! Throw in a hot as heck hockey man and some spicy spice scenes and you have the makings of a great audiobook. I have loved all the books in this series but this one is the best so far. And Epilogue 2 gives us a glimpse of Book 4 which is just as exciting!!
