Save Your Breath

Mia is a pop star used to living under constant scrutiny; Aleks is an NHL bad boy with a reputation to manage. They've known each other since childhood, and when Mia's career is threatened by tabloid drama, her publicist's plan to fix her image collides with Aleks's own need for good press. The result is a fake engagement neither of them expected to feel this real.

As they keep up appearances for the cameras, the line between performance and genuine feeling starts to blur — stolen glances, unplanned closeness, and old history resurfacing make it harder for Mia to tell where the lies end and the truth begins. With their pasts catching up to them and her career on the line, Mia has to decide whether the biggest risk isn't losing her career, but losing her heart to the one person she never let herself have.

Save Your Breath is the fourth book in Kandi Steiner's Kings of the Ice series, a set of interconnected standalone romances following a professional hockey team and the women in their lives.
