One game doesn't change everything...
but tonight, it just might change him.
Miles Carter never asked to lead Northside's struggling basketball team. He's not the tallest. Not the quickest. And he's definitely not the kid anyone expects to take the final shot.
But when their season turns desperate, the team leans on the one thing that's been steady all year - Miles's quiet grit.
With a packed gym roaring, Westbrook's powerhouse squad pressing, and the fourth quarter collapsing into chaos, Miles must decide who he is when everything is on the line:
the kid who plays it safe...
or the one who finally believes he belongs.
Heartfelt, intense, and full of unforgettable moments, Northside Rising is a sports-underdog novella about grit, friendship, and the night a team learns what they're made of.
Perfect for fans of Friday Night Lights, The Crossover, and emotional coming-of-age stories with real heart.
