Defensive Indifference
(2026)(The fourth book in the Southern Sports Sweethearts series)
A novel by M J Padgett
When life gives you fresh out of the oven donuts, it’s probably not a good idea to drop them on the swoony baseball player’s lap.
After a very public incident, all pro-baseball player Koa Keaton wants is to be left alone. But everywhere he goes, reporters flash cameras in his face, begging for a statement about his crumbling life. When Koa dips into a local donut shop to escape the entourage of stalkers, he doesn’t expect to find yet another groupie desperate for his attention.
Evalina Renn has enough on her plate with a young child, a struggling business, and a stack of never ending bills. The last thing she needs is to deal with a cocky baseball player who thinks he’s too special to sign a simple autograph, even if he is her son’s favorite Savannah Sharks player. Still, she doesn’t mean to accidentally dump a scalding hot stack of donuts onto his lap, leaving the star player covered in chocolate frosting.
Koa isn’t proud of his overreaction to the waitress, especially when it ends up on every local news outlet. To top it off, the woman refuses to accept his apology. His repeated attempts to make things right are met by slamming doors, frustrated groans, and utter humiliation. The worst part is he can’t stop thinking about her and what it might be like to kiss her until she smiles.
Defensive Indifference is a sweet, meet disaster, enemies to lovers romance with faith elements and a side of comedy!
