Travis Gardner lives to play quarterback.

He’s a standout QB by the time he reaches middle school, and he’s prepared to put everything into the game: blood, sweat, and tears.

When Travis’s older brother joins the elite football program at Gainesville University, Gainesville’s head coach makes Travis a once-in-a-lifetime promise: Travis will have a place on the team too, and a scholarship to go with it. He just has to get through high school first.

As Travis starts ninth grade, he’ll have to earn his teammates’ trust and dodge opponents aiming to sack the star quarterback. But his biggest challenge might be staying focused in the face of sudden fame. Because now the pressure is on, and Travis has to prove himself with every pass.
