I'm fuming.
Why?
Because I've wasted my precious time by reading this disaster of a book. Don't get me wrong, I did like parts of it, but it just wasn't enough for me to get over HOW STUPID AND IRRITATING TAYLOR WAS. The first half-ish was alright, but the last half just fucked me right off.
Why is Taylor so dumb? I knew from when Hayze started displaying suspicious behaviour that his 'big' secret would be to do with (view spoiler) If I was not intel ...more

Hazed, book one in the Hazed series is written by Brittany Butler. It is a young adult romance that deal with a few issues which is more suited to a mature audience. I was taken in by this story from the beginning. Taylor's character intrigued me, but Hayze captivated me. I wanted to solve the mystery that was him. The author was brilliant at spinning his story, keeping me on the knife's edge. He was an enigma that had me very intrigued.

Hazed is the first book in The Hazed Series by Brittany Butler. I admit, I didn't do my due diligence and found out at the end when it just...ends...that the story continues into Book 2 so be warned, this not a complete story and you will need to read on to find out what happens next.

Awesome read! Loved it! Great book to end the summer with!!
Great story - very realistic!
A good book is supposed to evoke feelings and emotions. This book certainly did that for me. I'm not sure what rating I want to give it so I'm going to free write and see if it comes together for me.
This is a Y/A coming of age/new age story that ticked me off in a lot of ways. The decisions the female protagonist makes are infuriating. I wanted to shake my kindle so that I could shake her and tell her... Well I can't tell you what I would tell her because then that would just ruin the story for ...more

Hazed by Brittany Butler is book one of the Hazed Series. This book is recommended for readers over 17 due to some of the subject matter.

Brittney Butler is a new author for me, not knowing what to expect I went in expecting good things due to brilliant synopsis that was written, what I wasn’t expected was how brilliant and utterly captivating this story was.

Hazed by Brittany Butler is the first book, I’ve read by this author. I wasnt really a fan of the book however the writing was good. Hayze is the sexy bartender where Taylor starts to work. There is an instant attraction between the two. Only problem is Hayze has the bad boy vibe going. Hayze is with a different girl every night and girls throw themselves at him on the regular.
Taylor doesn’t have much experience in anything. She grew up the daughter of a pastor and never had the chance to do any ...more

This is a story thats hard to read as its so relatable.
The characters of this story (Taylor and Hayze) are very well written and so relatable you feel like you are living their lives with them.
Taylor is a young innocent woman who leaves home to go to college. She starts working at a bar where she meets Hayze.
Hayze is the bad boy, the player who treats women as playthings. As much as they try to fight it they fall for each other but the relationship is toxic.

Shock is too tamed of a word for how I feel right now. Hayze is bad the guy your parents tell you to stay away from. The boy that gets you hooked and then leaves you. But that’s just the surface of Hayze. Taylor sees that deep love and vulnerability inside him. Taylor makes him want to be and do better. I liked how Taylor still kept a flare of innocence about her. Yes she is breaking out of her shell but she is playing it smart. I’m not ...more

Hazed (The Hazed Series Book 1) By Brittany Butler. This is the first in a series that I’m sure I’m going to love. This story definitely had my complete attention from beginning to end. With characters that are complex and well developed. A storyline that deals with difficult subjects and is well written as well as paced nicely. There’s definitely times I knew I was in for an emotional roller coaster ride with the feelings written into this story. I’m excited to see where the author takes reader

I loved this book and couldn’t put it down until the last page. This story is a little dark as it contains sensitive material but it made the story real for me. This story is about Taylor. She comes from a resistive home and manages to fall for her roomates brother. But the problem with Hayze is that he has a drinking and drug problem. Their story is an emotional ride for sure. I found myself hoping that there was a happy ending for them. It is worth picking it up, a must read!

Hazed ( The Hazed Series Book 1) by Brittany Butler is a story that had my emotions all over the place. I was drawn into the story from the beginning and couldn’t put it down till the end. I had to know what happens next. This story may be a little dark but I found myself relating to Taylor with a similar situation years ago. This is a book worth picking up and reading. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Hazed by Brittany Butler is book one in the Hazed series. Taylor is on her own for the first time, and she wants to enjoy making mistakes and making her own choices. And then she meets Hayze and her life really begins, her first love and heartbreak. You feel for both the main characters, at times they are hard to connect with, but you want to finish the story and see it through. Haze is full on drama, firsts and regret.
I loved the plot of this book. I think it is so hard for children of strict parents to lead any kind of normal life. So, when you go to college, and gain some freedom, well…. The MFC now knows what freedom can mean, and, it might not all be good! The MMC, oh boy! Looking forward to book 2!
I received an advanced reader copy, and this is my honest and voluntary review.

“I should move away from his touch. But he’s a constant storm in my life, clouding my head, ensuring I make bad decisions. He doesn’t do it on purpose, he knows we’re not good for each other, but there’s something about us that makes us fight back harder, thinking we can overcome it.”

“I grab the nearest rock, toss it in my hand, watching as it drops and soars into the air again. I chunk it in the water, as the rock sinks to the bottom, ripples cast in each direction. Unsatisfied I do this again. And again. I only stop when I feel him approach. I stop and steady myself, I don't turn. I know it's him, my body turns rigid and my heart speeds up as if the devil himself is behind me.”
