Was It Worth It is a raw, unflinching look at the price some families pay in pursuit of the pro athlete dream. This gripping novel follows Henry, a father who uproots his family from England to Canada in a relentless pursuit to give his son, Noah, every chance to reach the NHL.

Before Noah could even walk, Henry had already mapped out the first 18 years of his life, planning every step, every sacrifice, all leading to the NHL Draft. Fueled by his own shattered dream of playing professional hockey, Henry pours everything into his son's journey, vowing to stop at nothing to make him the best. What begins as love and dedication slowly turns into obsession, blurring the line between support and control.

This novel will hit home for moms, dads, former players, current athletes, and anyone navigating the high-stakes world of youth sports. The question lingers until the very end: Was it worth it?
