Hazards #1-3
The Hazards Series #1-3
*Contains three full length NA Romance novels* The Hazards of Skinny Dipping This isn't a deep book about first loves or self-discovery. If you want a book like that, I'd be happy to recommend one, but I don't have that kind of story to tell. Instead my story is about rash decisions and finding out that your dream guy is bad in bed. It's the story of when I finally went skinny dipping, and how my life was never the same again. Oh, and it's also the story of my freshman year of college and realizing Mr. Right might have been there all along. The Hazards of a One Night Stand One small town boy, one girl who wants more, one roll in the hay... Hooking up with your high school crush is a bad idea, a really bad idea. It was only supposed to be one night, one brief departure from my real life, but nothing ever works out exactly the way you plan. Colton Waters was everything from my past that didn't fit into my present, so why did he have to show up at my college and pledge the one frat I couldn't avoid? Because nothing is ever meant to happen just once. At least not the life changing things that mean the difference between falling apart and falling in love. The Hazards of Sex on the Beach One broken heart, one drink too many, one steamy night in the sand... No one warns you about the dangers of drinking with a broken heart. At least no one warned me. I never imagined I'd fall for a musician, especially not one like Chase, but then again I never expected to have my heart broken into a million pieces by the frat guy I thought was the love of my life. Sometimes it's the rash decisions, like hooking up in the sand, that lead you to the best places—the kinds of places where it's possible to let yourself fall in love again.

THE HAZARDS OF SKINNY DIPPING:
I had so much fun reading this book Dylan was okay but as I got to reading the story I kind of out grew him, not to mention he acts like a girl half the time, "I woke up in the middle of the night wanting you so bad, and you weren't there. Not even a note with your phone number. Your house was empty the next day. And are you are the only person on the planet without a facebook? I couldn't even find you that way." Reed now that hunka-hunka-burning-love was something else entirely and I really did love him, he and Juliet seem to have great chemistry:
"No. I'd rather be sleeping."
"If you're tired, you are welcome to join me." He patted the bed beside him.
"Really? Oh my god, I can't believe you'd be so generous."
"I like you, Juliet. You're feisty and fiery, and I know we're going to be good friends."
I mean he's good looking, "every inch of his chest and abs was perfectly sculpted. It wasn't my fault - it was impossible not to gawk at him." Don't you worry I wouldn't be able to help myself either. he seems to be genuine, "That isn't even an invitation. A piece of advice: make a guy work for it. It'll only make him want you more." I mean really genuine, "No. You don't wait for anything, You do what you want. If he really likes you, he'll find a way to see you." He seems protective, at the same time jealous, "No, you can't. Your jacka** boyfriend is holding up the line." He turned to Dylan. "You can sit down. We'll bring the pies out. Juliet, go help Justin in the back." He knows just what to say to make a girl feel special, "That dress could kill a man, but you already know that. Normally, it would have driven me mad." Sometimes what he says is just truly funny, "I'm hung, and you're stack." He pulled off my panties and tossed them. "If college doesn't work out for us, we can make movies." So as I said before I really enjoyed reading this book it was entertaining.
THE HAZARDS OF A ONE NIGHT STAND:
I liked this book, I liked Colton but he doesn't hold a candle to Reed, who in this series I love. I loved how Colton was a cheeky bast**r, "what am I doing? You're the one telling me you might be getting close to me tonight." His hand slid down slightly, settling below my hip. His touch felt so good." Colton good lord nothing phases that boy, "you thought I had a small di**?" He has no qualms about his nakedness, "I need to go." I pressed against him, and this time he didn't resist. I slipped on my clothes while he watched, just lying there buck naked. He was hard as a rock, but he wasn't getting any relief from me." It's apparent the boy makes his own rules where Mallory is concerned, "you've got it all wrong." He sat up next to me. "You jumped from me to Tanner. Now you're just coming back where you belong." He left three small kisses along my jaw that sent shivers throughout my body.' Mallory knows how to hold her own and isn't afraid to voice her feelings, "we went public. I think I should get sex out of the deal." As I said I liked Colton but it's Reed whose hung like a horse that still has my heart.
THE HAZARDS OF SEX ON THE BEACH:
*Sighs* Chase I loved you, "I worked on his belt and unbuttoned his jeans. He grinned. "You think I'm letting you take that out in the cold?" I love that he'll do anything for his girl, "he brushed his lips against my ear sending a thrill through me. "I want to make you happy tonight, Cara. If making you happy involved ordering chocolate chip pancakes, I'm doing it." He also has no problems in telling her what he likes, "listen, I don't know who you've date before, but if I tell you I like something, I like it. And just to make it even easier, I like when you touch me. So, you really can't go wrong as long as your hands, or other body parts are on me." His girl does things to him and I loved their relationship, "damn, you're going to kill me. How the hell am I supposed to go to a show with a tent in my pants?" I'm hoping Kyle gets his book next you really fall for all the characters in this series and want the best for them.

Allison and Reed, Mallory and Colton, Cara and Chase
I read book one earlier and reviewed it. Please see that review.
Mallory and Colton
Mallory was home for summer break. She was going back to school in about a week to help with Rush at Delta Mu. She went to her best friend's party on her uncle's farm. She was ready to get out of small town Gasden. She ran into her old crush Colton and they have a roll in the hay.
Cara and Chase
Cara learns that her boyfriend Aaron has been cheating on her with his ex. She immediately dumps him. To get her over her sadness from the break-up she goes to a house party with a friend. Trying to get away from all the people she goes to the top deck of the house. She meets Chase, they were both pretty drunk but had a great conversation. They took a walk down to the beach. Then end up having amazing sex. She left him there without giving him her last name or number. That's how she wanted it.
The books were good if you want something a little mindless, to get away from reality but not bawling your eyes. I will continue with the series with Jade's story next!
All the books are in the girl's POV. The book was edited great.

Agh the Hazards Series! Where to begin? How about fantastic, funny, passionate, coming of age tales that focus on a select group of friends embarking on their college life. They find out life isn't always about what you have planned, but the moments that fall in between making life worth living. Rose Ivy always delivers a solid, well thought out story with lovable, realistic characters and life events. Hazards series is one of my most favorites of Rose Ivy's. I love returning and reading these characters and their stories over and over again. If you want a great new adult read, pick up the Hazard's boxed set today. Fall in love with Reed, Colton, and Chase.
