The Player's Path: a Playing for Keeps Prequel

What if one moment—one reckless decision—changed everything?

Meet Hunter McKinley. Star soccer player. Rule-breaker. Adrenaline addict.

Until the night it all catches up with him.

Fighting for his life, Hunter is forced to face the consequences of a past he can't outrun… and a future he may not deserve.

Enter Jo Donahue—the last person he ever expected to save him.

Becoming Hunter's "guardian angel" wasn't part of Jo's plan… but neither is the connection between them.

A connection that's bigger than themselves…
