Description: When Scott Murphy scored the winning touchdown in the 1991 high school championship game, it should have launched a golden future, a full scholarship to Ohio State, the love of a beauty queen, and entry into a world of million-dollar signing bonuses and NFL glory. Instead, it all ended with a sickening pop as his leg shattered in four places. The next twenty years became a study in Murphy's Law, whatever could go wrong did go wrong. Just when things seem hopeless- he's losing his farm, his marriage is crumbling- a miracle happens: Murphy gets a chance to reboot his life. He wakes up young again, the week before the fateful game, and realizes that by changing his past, he can have the future he always wanted. Everything he lost is within reach, even his beloved high school sweetheart. But what about the devoted wife he left behind? Torn between two women, two lives, he can only choose one destiny. Murphy must decide if getting everything he's ever wanted is worth giving up everything he's ever had.--From back cover.
