2008 EPPIE FINALIST "PLAY HARD" IS ONCE AGAIN AVAILABLE! Don't miss this romantic tale of widowed, working-class poker pro Felicia "The Philly Flash" Francis and old-money Burt Stone, an Olympic equestrian whose accident resulted in his horse's death and his career-ending injury.
Felicia donates poker lessons to a charity auction, because the proceeds will provide therapeutic riding for special needs children, her late husband Jay's passion—even though horses scare her. She takes what comfort she can in the whispered messages that Jay's spirit speaks to her. Burt purchases the lessons on a whim.
Their fierce chemistry pushes them together—but old hurts pull them apart. The ghost of Felicia's late husband urges her to move on and let Burt into her life. Meanwhile, Burt discovers he wants to free himself of old attachments so he can pursue Felicia. Both of these wounded people come to realize that they need to play hard, with their whole hearts, to win at the game of love.
