Game Changer: #UofJ Book 2

by Alley Ciz

@UofJ411 Thought you didn't fumble @CasaNova87? # OffYourGame # LosingMoreThanTDs

I had the girl--THE girl.
Kay. My Skittles... MINE.
Then a blitz from the past flattened me like a linebacker. Time for a new playbook.

Mason Nova is...argh!
I told myself to stay away. Warned my heart not to fall for him. Did it listen? NOPE.
Now it feels like it’s crushed under a fallen cheer pyramid. Sorry to tell you, but you are NOT a game changer.

*GAME CHANGER is book 2 in the U of J Series and cannot be read as a stand-alone. It picks up right from the cliff LOOKING TO SCORE threw you off of. Can our too-charming-for-his-own-good Casanova win back his pint-sized, rainbow-haired sass queen in this second chance sports romance? The banter between these two continues until Mase and Kay’s story concludes in PLAYING FOR KEEPS out now. *

I'm Alley. I'm an Indie author and I write Contemporary/New Adult, Rom-Com, Sports Romances with fierce heroines and their swoony Alpha partners with heart. There's a heavy dose of witty banter and sarcasm in my characters.

I'm a stay at home mom to 3 amazing and crazy minis all under 4yo, a 95lb lab, and let's face it on some days my hubby is my 4th kids... But to be fair I totally love him a a lot. When I'm not corralling my crazy minis I can be found writing the stories the voices in my head tell me at naptime and when the rest of my house goes to sleep at night.

I'm a complete romance junkie. Pizza and mac and cheese are major food groups to me.

MASON and KAYLA

OMG!... This book... I’m LOVE Mason!

And again, that CLIFFHANGER... I’m so glad I’m reading these books when all 3 has released... otherwise I do not how I would have survived!

After the dumbest mistake of his life of breaking up with Kayla, Mason very soon realizes that he has majorly messed up, and not just with Kayla but also his and her friends and her family
He will have to make it up with a lot of people and no one is going to make it easy. Even his inner coach is mad at him. LOL

“But my inner coach has been both extremely vocal and suspiciously quiet. It’s an oxymoron I have had zero luck in figuring out.”

What he doesn’t realize is the hardest is going to be Kayla. She is completely destroyed and devastated by what Mason has done and what she has been through due to everything that has happened on social media. All anonymity is now out of the story and everyone knows who she is. (Won’t explain... please read the book).

“You broke a part of me that was barely even strong enough to be with you in the first place.”

"Kay thinks her demons have won? Thinks they can take her away from me? I may not be all that religious, but I can be her mother***ing priest and exorcise those bastards.

Mine. Time to show her I’m still her Caveman."

But Mason is relentless in his pursuit, and when he learns the extent of the bullying and abuse, she has gone through at the hands of her ex, he vows to make him pay. It helps that both schools already have a rivalry in terms of football!

He calls and messages her endlessly and she ignores him, even goes to her dorm, but she goes to friends to sleep at night, she arrives late and leaves early from classes to avoid him!
But Mason knows how to reach her heart (and it is SOOO precious *heart in my eyes*) with her quirky t shirts and birth stone rings and even a letter!... swoon!!
Great people write letters... but legends print T-shirts.

I crave her like an addict. She’s my drug of choice, and all I want to do is overdose.

Mason is so charming and he brings out all the sweetness, stubbornness and love to make Kayla his. The family moments are too precious and the new character of Carter king... delicious!... I want more of him and Emma... need their book now!
Kayla even breaks her fear of social media and posts a picture. That moment is so precious to see!

Finally, things start to get okay, but the ex-boyfriend is now back with a vengeance!... cyber bullying, calling out the school, even threatening people close to her.
The rivalry has now reached epic proportions! There is a #thegram war going on with Kayla and Mason being the reigning supreme.

Its an amazing book!!… and the again that CLIFFHANGER!...

PS: I'm adding a little bit of the note Mason sent Kayla... Totally swoon!!
I did do one thing to set mine apart from the rest, though that should come as no surprise. If you do decide to bestow upon me the honor of being added to the representation of those who are most important to you, know I had it sized to fit your left ring finger. Why, you may ask? Rings worn on this finger typically have a bigger meaning to them, and I’m hoping this can hold my place until I replace it with something more official down the line. I love you, baby, so much.
