BASKETBALL SEASON IS HERE….

Ben, Sam, Coop, Shawn, and Lily return in a second Game Changers novel!

It's another sport — basketball — and a new season for Ben McBain and his friends. That means a new set of challenges, both on and off the court, for Ben, Sam, Coop, Shawn, and even Lily. Before the cheering has stopped at the end of the football season, their friendships will be tested at the tip-off of basketball season. Ben faces off against a new set of opponents and must come to terms with his own abilities in order to prove once again that it's not about getting knocked down in sports; it's about how you get back up afterward.
