Striking Sparks •Kyle "KJ" Jackson•

Kyle Jackson, the Savannah Bananas' most famous star and fan-favorite third baseman, has always lived for the spotlight. With every dazzling play and every viral moment, he's used to being the center of attention-until the day he meets Darla Meadows.

Darla isn't just anyone. She's the younger sister of DR Meadows, the Bananas' electrifying backflipping centerfielder, and she's made a name for herself as one of the fiercest pitchers in college softball. Wearing number 23 for the Tennessee Lady Vols, Darla holds the NCAA record for the fastest pitch ever recorded at 79.4 MPH-a record that has sports reporters buzzing and scouts lining up to watch her games.

When Darla comes to Savannah to watch her brother play, she catches Kyle's eye in a way no one else has before. She's competitive, independent, and unimpressed by his fame-three things Kyle has never had to face when it comes to love. But the chemistry between them is undeniable, fueled by long nights at the ballpark, playful rivalries over batting cages, and quiet conversations away from the roar of the crowd.

As the season heats up, so does the connection between Kyle and Darla. But with Darla's own career on the rise and Kyle's life under the constant glare of Banana Ball fame, they'll have to learn whether love can handle the pressure of the game-or if it's destined to be just another strikeout.
