What He Never Knew, a standalone teacher/student romance in the What He Doesn't Know series by bestselling author Kandi Steiner is live!
I never learn my lesson.
And I always want what I can’t have.
When Sarah Henderson walks into my life, I tell myself she’s off limits. She’s my student, sixteen years younger than me, and my boss’s niece. It doesn’t matter that I see the same pain reflected in her eyes that I have in my own, or that the dead organ better known as my heart kicks to life when she’s around.
I’ve been here before, and I know how this ends.
It’s been two years since I fell for the last woman I knew I couldn’t have, the one with the ring on her finger that I chose to ignore.
Two years of trying to overcome that heartache when Sarah slides into my life.
Another woman I can’t have. Another woman I can’t stop myself from wanting.
I never learn my lesson, but with a constant reminder of how that last forbidden love burned, I think I’ve finally learned this one.
This time, I won’t chase what’s off limits.
This time, I’m staying away.
And I’ll keep telling myself that until I believe it.
My Review
I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.
Also, if you’ve read the first two books you know who this story is about. If you haven’t then I’m about to spoil some things so you may want to stop reading.
Reese is still in love with Charlie. It’s been well over a year and he’s still pining away for her. It doesn’t help that he’s still a part of their lives. He goes to dinners and birthday parties and has to see the life he thought he wanted. Talk about rough. So when he gets the opportunity to take on a new student, he jumps at the chance to be even busier than he already is.
Sarah loves the piano. She been playing since she was a little girl and wants nothing more to take the stage at Carnegie Hall. When Reese takes her on as a student she instantly feels a kinship with him. Yes, he’s a bit older than her, but they are both cut from the same cloth. They just get each other. Reese may not know what sort of demons Sarah is dealing with, but he understands how it can affect her, musically.
This book was full of emotions. Lots and lots of emotions. Reese is trying to forget his past and Sarah is trying to overcome hers. When they get together it’s easy to see how they complement each other. This book also deals with a tough and very relevant subject and I was brought to tears more than once while reading it.
And the ending to this story. Absolutely perfect. I basically cried my way through it because I was so happy with how things turned out.
This book is a must read for anyone who has read the first two books. You won’t be disappointed.
About Kandi:
Kandi Steiner is a bestselling author and whiskey connoisseur living in Tampa, FL. Best known for writing “emotional rollercoaster” stories, she loves bringing flawed characters to life and writing about real, raw romance — in all its forms. No two Kandi Steiner books are the same, and if you’re a lover of angsty, emotional, and inspirational reads, she’s your gal.
An alumna of the University of Central Florida, Kandi graduated with a double major in Creative Writing and Advertising/PR with a minor in Women’s Studies. She started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a diehard hopeless romantic, and likes to highlight all the challenges of love as well as the triumphs.
When Kandi isn’t writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, talking with her extremely vocal cat, and spending time with her friends and family. She enjoys live music, traveling, anything heavy in carbs, beach days, movie marathons, craft beer and sweet wine — not necessarily in that order.
And I always want what I can’t have.

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.
When Kandi announced this book was happening I surprised myself by how excited I got. I had read the two previous books and i was a bit torn by the way things ended so i was very curious to see how things would go in this story.
Also, if you’ve read the first two books you know who this story is about. If you haven’t then I’m about to spoil some things so you may want to stop reading.
