Change My Game: An Emotional Second Chance Romance (North Haven University) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 904 ratings

My name is Jace London,

And I may have screwed up.


I’ve always been the guy who had it all.

Privilege, entitlement, and a life of luxury.

But after one college night gone tragically wrong,

Nothing has ever been the same.


Everyone thinks I should be happy.

With a trust fund like mine, who could be sad?

But no one knows what’s going on with me,

Or the nightmares that keep me awake at night.


I finally found salvation in a parent’s worst nightmare.

The only thing to ease the pain just enough to breathe.

My friends are worried I’m going to ruin myself.

What they don’t realize, is I’m already dead inside.


Now they’re ready to pull out all the stops,

Including a therapist that gets paid an ungodly price.

No amount of money can bring back the guy I was,

But the girl that got away might be enough to try.


Gorgeous, strong, and confident to a fault.

If anyone can save me from myself, it’s her.


Change My Game is a STANDALONE and part of the North Haven University series. It contains sensitive topics that may not be suitable for all readers. If needed, you can find a list of trigger warnings on Kelsey Clayton's website. Please read safely.

Second chance romance at its best!
5 out of 5 stars
Second chance romance at its best!
“Our fate was written in the stars.” ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ It’s been almost a year since I met my first Kelsey Clayton sensation, and this master storyteller has slayed every story since. Each romance of Clayton’s is a heady mix of strong characters with a powerful connection and sizzling chemistry, heart-pounding suspense, and words so broken and beautiful that they feel like poetry pouring from the pages. Second chance romances are my absolute favorite and Change My Game was my kryptonite. Second chance romance at its best! An epically romantic and beautifully broken tale of tears and triumph, sin and salvation, and the undying love that threads it all together. Jace, plagued by past demons finally finds his guiding star in Paige, the girl he once let slip away. Paige is the perfect match for Jace, so stunning and strong, battling through her own pain to rescue Jace. My heart bled for this hero of many layers, and I loved uncovering his strength underneath the mistakes and light underneath the darkness. This hero and heroine battle through hell to be together, soulmates always destined to be one. Drawn together like a moth to a flame. This romance—so broken yet so beautiful—spoke to my soul, holding me in its clutches as it rendered me powerless to its pull, where I was thoroughly ravaged as my heart beat and bled for this book. OMG ... the angst ... the hate ... the history ... the heart ... the tears ... the triumph. I was so hooked on this book ... I couldn’t put it down. Change My Game BLEW ME AWAY! This stunning, soul-scorching, heart-clenching, knock you in the feels romance of soulmates and second chances is pure perfection. A must one-click love story! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ change your heart stars

    An emotional, second chance romance that twisted me up, left me in tears, but gave me the happily ever after I craved. This was a tumultuous romance between a couple who were both facing heart wrenching life changes. It was a one sitting read for me as these characters sucked me in and I was completely invested in their story.

    Jace is spiraling. His life is spinning out of control. Carter needs help trying to get his best friend back on track, so he reached out to Paige. She was the girl Jace let get away. He knows she's the only one that can give him a reason to save himself. The three of them used to be best friends, but when Paige left for college, she left Jace behind...before he could leave her.

    Jace has been barely living over the past year. A devastating accident left him reeling. He's turning to anything that makes the pain go away. Carter feels like he's losing his best friend but is at the end of his rope. She's his last hope to save him.

    Paige left her hometown for a college far away two years ago. She wanted to start anew and she left her heart behind. Jace and her were only hooking up at the end of high school. She knew she was the girl that wanted more than the guy she was seeing, so when she left she ghosted him. It as easier to leave him then watch them break apart because of distance and life. Besides, she never thought he wanted anything more.

    A family illness has brought Paige back home. Now the life she left and the way she left, has come back to haunt her. Carter wants her help with Jace. Too bad Jace wants nothing to do with the girl who left him. It's going to be an uphill climb. However, walking away a second time is something she doesn’t think she'll survive.

    Both Jace and Paige are suffering. Him from the past and her from the fear of losing two of the most important men in her life. Their love is passionate and borderline obsessive. It consumes them to the point of being toxic until Paige gets her wake up call. Jace loves her but he craves escape more at times and knows how to manipulate her. Her love has no boundaries, so she loses her way. Walking away may be the only way to save him. Jace will need to fight for what he wants.

    The story and their struggles are intense. The author will definitely tear your heart right in two. I felt their pain and cried with them. This story tackled addiction, loss, tragedy and an endless love. It was also an epic bromance between friends that would do anything for the other and the love of a woman that stole his heart long ago. So many poignant moments that will give you so many feels. And a special treat was having our favorite couples from Haven Grace Prep make appearances in Jace and Paige's story. I cannot wait for Carter's story.

    Jace and Paige's story is a heartbreaking one about second chances, rediscovering love, and saving yourself. I knew Jace's story would be a tough one after meeting him in Book 1 but Kelsey had my heart in my throat with every page that I turned. The angst between these two draws you in and holds on to you for for the entire book. I loved that while Jace was falling apart, Paige became a pillar of strength for him to lean on. But she did not become his crutch and he was able to become stronger and save himself because of the strength she showed him and the unwavering love she had for him.

    Change My Game is the super angsty next chapter of Kelsey Clayton’s North Haven University series. It’ll make you laugh, it’ll make you cry, and it will give you all the feels to the end.

    Jace is spiraling; he’s out of control and barely hanging on by a thread.  Enter Paige back into his life. Paige who’s been his friend since childhood.  Paige who he had a fling with summer after senior year. Paige, who ghosted him.  Despite all the emotions her return brings, she’s still the calm in his storm, someone that makes him want to be… better. Jace needs to decide whether he’s going to let go of the thread or whether Paige is worth the pain to weather the storm.

    Really enjoyed this next chapter.  Jace was a awesome, complex character that had you rooting for him all the way till the end.

    Although, I think the addiction and treatment was really good representation. Some of it just felt off to me.

    It wasn’t until the end of the story that I realize that their relationship didn’t seem stable. And a lot of be cliffhanger chapters felt unrealistic to the real world.

    Other than that the pot was really good, especially since we didn’t really know if he did or not the thing about it is I really want to know what they saw in her face during the video? If you know what I mean, do you know what I mean.

    I’m pretty sure will see it in the second book but I don’t know if when I read second book because I don’t really like Tye as a significant other to Carter.

    But who knows I might read it later on.

    Clayton has taken us into a much darker place, sticking to the real beast that is life. She will wring your emotions dry and leave you with a book hangover so big you will not know what to read next.

    This story focuses on the different ways life can change after a life changing event occurs. Kelsey digs in deep with this book taking us on a journey that ripped my heart out and put it back together with a hurt that only a great writer can.
    Jace and Carter end up at North Haven after something terrible happened at their old University. They chose to deal with it in two different ways. Jace heads down a dark and dangerous path that no one can seem to save him from. Paige transferred to North Haven after getting a devastating call from her parents, leading her back from California.

    Paige and Jace have a history so long and tangled the pain from their last goodbye left devastation in their wake. Paige might be the only one who can save Jace. Overcoming their past while dealing with their private struggles may prove to be too much for these two to find a way out together.

    13/10⭐️⭐️⭐️. 4.5/5🌶🌶.

    All I have to say is WHOA….. This book was just….I’m speechless. I absolutely loved the way that the writing the author created Jace as this broken person. He didn’t think he deserved anyone or deserved a life because of his past. I love the way Paige was this Amazing College girl that’s going through some traumatic stuff with her family and which is why she is back in town. The romance that this book has between the characters is amazing.

    Review - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
    Kelsey Clayton doesn't mess around when she want's to grasp your attention. From the start of 'Change My Game' Ms Clayton went straight for the emotional jugular and grip of this gut wrenching heart pounding story gets tighter and tighter right to the last page. The first book in the series Corrupt My Mind was captivating but Paige and Jace's story is mind blowing, a deeply moving story of second chances set against a tragedy that has deep routed consciousness both emotionally and physically. I am not ashamed to say that this author reduced me to cry vividly ugly tears at 12.01am as the deeper into the book I got the more I lost myself, I cried for Jace and I cried for the wonderful Paige and her own tragedy. Oh my God what a book what a story.

    When Carter realises that his best friend is on a one trip to never, he is left with one option to call upon the only person he believes can turn Jace around from this path of destruction he is on - Paige. The three of them were inseparable as children and when they got into their teens it was clear that there was more to Paige and Jace than just a close friendship. But when Paige goes across the country to College she believes it is best to cut ties with Jace to keep what is left off her heart intact but with that one move his path is set. Now a year later she is back home dealing with a tragedy of her own, but she can't turn her back on the one man that has always meant everything to her. But Jace is hiding a secret one that started this spiral and what if neither Paige or Carter can pull him out!

    I have reviewed over 450 books in 2020, I have laughed I have cried but I can honestly say with hand on heart I never cried as hard I did with 'Change My Game'. The connection between Jace and Paige just flies of the page, the chemistry is hot but it is the storyline that is worthy of so much more than ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

    'I used to live for the thrill. The adrenaline rush. The Chase. But now, I live for her".

    Kelsey clayton is fast becoming one of my favourites authors. The stories she writes has it all humour, love, happiness, heartbreak and you feel all these emotions. Paige and Jaces story is no different i definitely had the tissues out for this one. The characters have undeniable chemistry, that leaves you on the edge of your seat of will they or won't they. This is a must read. Younwill not be disappointed. Can't wait for book 3

    The couple is cute and the story is beautiful, seeing Jace get better and fight for his wellbeing. Carter is also an incredible friend, caring and selfless.
    Then why 3 stars? Because the author didn't explore the good parts of their story, like the reuniting, the chase, that cute little moments. She was fast at this moment and then spend chapters and chapters talking detailing the withdrawal and the trial. These topics were nice too but it could have been less explored.

    The quality of the writing was up to par with some of my favourite well known authors. The story flowed, the dialogue was great and the topics covered were way intense. Sure I shed a few tears. And I like a good sex scene as much as the next person, but the story was not so overwhelmed by them that I felt the need to just skip them. Would I read it again for the first time? Hell yes. Looking forward to Carter’s story.
