Pucks and Pirouettes
(2027)(The sixth book in the Southern Sports Sweethearts series)
A novel by M J Padgett
Sometimes the best defense, is a good offense.
Winger Grant Destin knows a thing or two about a good offense, but lately he’s struggled to keep his head above water. His body isn’t what it used to be after ten seasons of hard on the bones hockey, but he’s determined to make the most of this season of life. It isn’t like he doesn’t have a plan for retirement, but owning a ranch isn’t exactly easy work either. Then there’s his stalled, nonexistent love life.
Gianna DeLuca is over the moon that she’s about to become an aunt again, so when her sister, Stevie, asks her to come to Savannah for three months to help run her dance studio, she leaps at the opportunity. The perky ballet dancer adores Savannah, and if she’s lucky she might get a few free tickets to watch her brother-in-law’s hockey games…all for family support, of course.
When Gianna arrives in Savannah, Grant is reminded that she’s his ideal woman''feisty, beautiful, and talented. The problem is, she lives half a country away with no plans for relocating. Their flirty relationship was never meant to amount to anything, but there’s something about this visit that has alarm bells screeching. The kind Grant knows means this DeLuca might run away with his heart…and break it in the process. Rather than lose his heart, Grant decides to keep his distance, sparking a turn of events he never saw coming.
Pucks and Pirouettes is a sweet, friends to lovers, long distance romance with faith elements and a side of comedy!
