The Prequels

To be read before The Playmaker (or after, to fully understand Porter and Asher, and the chips on both their shoulders).

Troublemaker

For years, I've lived in my big brothers' shadows.

Heck, I've lived in my sisters' shadows as well.

It comes with being the baby of the Prescott family.

In two years, I'll be eligible for the NHL Entry Draft.

In two years, the world is going to know

Porter Prescott for what I can bring to the table,

not as the kid brother of San Diego Enforcers players,

Caleb and Jonny Prescott.

I have two years to make a name for myself.

Be prepared. Porter Prescott is coming your way.

Breakaway

Once upon a time,

in a faraway place...

I learned that monsters exist,

That the dark is meant for fear,

and That sometimes you can't even count on yourself.

I just have to get past senior year finals then I can

break away—I can leave the past,

the monsters, the ghosts...far, far behind.

I just can't break beforehand.

Be kind to yourself. Breakaway in particular contains dark subjects some readers may find triggering.
