Conrad (The Minnesota Kingstons Book 2) Kindle Edition
Meet Conrad, a hockey star meets celebrity romance in the Minnesota Kingston series by USA Today bestselling author Susan May Warren.
He’s an unlikely bodyguard, but someone has to keep this woman alive…
Meet Penelope Pepper: billionaire heiress, mystery podcaster, and magnet for trouble. If only she wasn’t so determined to unravel the mystery of “who killed her sister’s fiancé.” Because clearly, given her recent kidnapping, with each episode, she’s closer to the truth.
And someone wants to silence her.
Probably she needs a protector, right?
Enter Conrad Kingston, power Center for the Minnesota Blue Ox hockey team and a Guy with a Secret. Namely, the panic attacks that haunt him every time he steps into the limelight. Hanging out with Celebrity Penny is exactly NOT what he needs…
Except, Blue Ox need ticket sales and when a mix-up ropes him into playing Penelope's fake boyfriend, he’s suddenly the social media darling, driving in fans to the home ice. Only problem…one of them doesn’t know the dating is fake.
As Penelope's stalker draws nearer with every juicy episode, Conrad finds himself sliding from fake kisses to real protective instincts, and on thin ice with his heart. But can he find his footing before the killer catches up to Penelope?
Fake dating meets real danger, in this clean, sweet but suspenseful romance in book 2 of the Minnesota Kingstons series.

About the author

Although I attended the U of Minnesota, I’m a woodsy girl at heart. Or maybe I’m an adventurer—having lived and traveled all over the world, including Siberia, Russia as a missionary for eight years. That’s why my characters seem to get into one scrape after another—they’re too much like me! I love God, my family, my country, my church, and feel privileged every day to be able to write stories.
And my 'official' bio:
With nearly 2 million books sold, critically acclaimed novelist Susan May Warren is the Christy, RITA, and Carol award-winning author of over ninety novels. Known for her compelling plots and unforgettable characters, Susan has penned contemporary and historical romances, romantic suspense, thrillers, rom-coms, and Christmas novellas. With books translated into eight languages, she's a USA Today, ECPA and CBA bestseller, and has received numerous starred Publisher Weekly reviews. Library Journal says, "Warren’s characters are well-developed and she knows how to create a first rate contemporary romance.”
Susan is a nationally acclaimed writing coach, and winner of the 2009 American Christian Fiction Writers Mentor of the Year. She is the founder of Novel.Academy, author of the popular writing method, The Story Equation, and a founding partner of Sunrise Media Group.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2025The second book in this series pulls you in and holds you captive. Once started you just have to keep turning the page to see what happens next. I love the way that Susan May Warren weaves the threads from each story to create a larger tapestry. This book has wonderful characters, action, and mystery that keeps you hooked. It also has a secondary story about trusting GOD and not your own often flawed perception of what is going on. Highly recommend this book and this series.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2025Ms Warren has done it again with a fantastic book filled with danger, suspense, and a bit of romance. There are twists and turns to the story that rival any Agatha Christy novel. Penelope has her Podcast where she is trying to delve into an unsolved murder. Conrad plays on the Blue Ox hockey team. They met at a friend’s wedding in an earlier book. With their publicist setting up a fake dating scenario to increase social media, they become close. They soon become embroiled in trying to solve the mystery of who was responsible for Sarah’s death when more bodies are added to the fray. Will they be next?
- Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2025Good story but I found myself trying to rush through chapters at some points. Kept looking at the page count, wanted to get to the end.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2025Loved the second installment in the Minnesota Kingstons series. This story focuses on Conrad, a Blue Ox hockey player, and Penelope, a billionaire heiress and mystery podcaster. The storyline was engaging, the characters were relatable and likable as Conrad struggles with past mistakes and anxiety, and the action was fast-paced. Warren weaves faith elements such as God's grace being bigger than our mistakes and peace into this story. Looking forward to the next installment.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2025Like all of Susan's books that I have read so far, I really enjoyed this book too! I love how so many of her books are interconnected so that the readers can see what some of our favorite characters from previous books are up to. Conrad concludes the main "mystery" from the previous book, Jack, and with a culprit I certainly didn't see coming!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2025Our past can haunt us, even if we are rich or famous. Seeking the truth about a murder keeps you on your toes and guessing all the way to the end. Oh and did I mention faith and family and romance... loved it
- Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2025I'm amazed at how quickly Susan May Warren can roll off the stories and each one is unique. Conrad is a protector , and it' s amazing how he connected with Penelope, accepting her as she was.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025I am so hooked into this new series, the Minnesota Kingstons! I have read the first two and Susan is excelling her writing abilities for these awesome stories! Get ready for Adventure and the unexpected!
