Playing for Keeps + The Player's Path Prequel (Book 3 + prequel of Legacy Falls Series)

Two lives. One defining moment. A love story a decade in the making. This special duet bundle brings together The Player's Path—the powerful prequel novella—and Playing for Keeps, the full-length romance that completes Hunter and Jo’s unforgettable journey. In The Player's Path, rising soccer star Hunter McKinley is flying high—until one reckless choice brings everything crashing down. Disillusioned college student Jo Donnelly never expected to save the life of her brother’s best friend… or that the aftermath would redefine them both. Years later, in Playing for Keeps, Hunter is living every athlete’s dream—but fame comes with temptations that test his character and his faith. Jo is dedicated to saving others but carrying wounds of her own. When their lives intersect again, sparks fly, but grief, guilt, and the widening gap between their worlds threaten to keep them apart. When tragedy forces them to confront everything they’ve been running from, Hunter and Jo must decide: will they walk away again—or finally fight for the love they were meant to find? Perfect for readers who love slow-burn chemistry, emotional depth, and redemption arcs grounded in faith and real life. This duet is part of a larger series but can be read as standalone. Playing for Keeps explores healing, resilience & forgiveness but addresses difficult experiences that may be triggering for some, including steroid use and a minor character's suicide.
