He was born a weapon. She became one to destroy him.Dark. Dangerous. Deadly.Those facts should’ve kept me away from this underground world where people disappear and never return.They didn’t.His mistake: Taking Zoe, someone I consider a sister. I will stop at nothing to get her back. Even if it means infiltrating a notorious organised crime ring in search of the faceless ghost who plucked her … in search of the faceless ghost who plucked her away.
My mistake: Not expecting him. Julian—the guard surrounded by a shroud of darkness and mystery. I’m helplessly and dangerously drawn to the man within.
The more I get lost in him, the riskier my mission becomes.
What if Julian is more than a mere guard?
What if he’s related to this man called Ghost?
Ghosted is a mafia romance, romantic suspense, and a killer romance with tones of darkness. This is the second book of Team Zero’s series, but it can be read as a complete standalone. For a better understanding of Team Zero’s assassination world, you might want to read Crowed first. Ghosted has no cliffhanger and no cheating, and ends on a HEA. Due to language and sexual content, this is advised for mature audience only. more

Rina Kent has a way of making you become engulfed in a world of darkness with a cast of unique characters and intriguing stories, and Ghosted was no different. Each of these Team Zero players are so different, yet they have an amazing sense of loyalty and brotherhood. Julian was a great match for the spunky Elle, their story was perfectly told, filled with unexpected twists and the right amount of sexy. I can’t wait for more….
I really enjoyed reading this book , i love characters and the story was so interesting 🙂 it’s got mystery and murder and steamy love scenes !
Elle is a cool character and i love that she is a bad ass ,i thought it was great that she went undercover to find out what happened to her friend Zoe, the more she digs into Le Salon the more she comes to see that the people who run it aren’t all bad ,she meets Julian and they have this amazing connection but she’s afraid of losing herself to him but the moment she gives in to her feelings she comes to find that maybe Zoe isn’t the only one who needs saving ,the pull between them is magnetic and they can’t keep their hands off each other !
OMG Julian is so freaking hot (fanning myself) i loved him from the start and the i think it’s so great that he is trying to save everyone from The Pit ,i love his first meeting with Elle in the ally ,him saving her was so awesome and then they come face to face at Le Salon and he decides to hire her and see what she is up too but the more time he spends with her ,the harder he starts to fall ,this is a first for Julian,he’s never felt this way before and he doesn’t understand what it is about Elle that draws him but he knows that he can’t live without her and he will do anything to protect her 🙂 they are such a great fit and i loved seeing them fall for each other 🙂
I loved the side characters and i can’t wait to read the other books in this awesome and interesting series 🙂 Rina Kent did it again and made me fall in love with the world she has created 🙂
I’m really enjoying this intriguing new series. This book features Ghost and Elle’s story and it is filled with intensity, darkness, passion, drama, suspense and plenty of edge of your seat twists. I loved the chemistry and attraction between these two. It was hot and powerful. The story was gripping and kept me firmly engaged. An excellent read. I’m already looking forward to book three.
This is book two in the Team Zero series and I must admit that I did not read book one. This book can be read as a standalone but to be clear I will be heading back to book one. This book is about Elle and Julian (Ghost). Elle is on a mission to find her friend Zoe, finding love is not in her radar. Julian has not had an easy life but he is holding his own in an underworld that chews people up and spits them out into a dark corner where no one ever sees or hears from them again. In her search for Zoe, she ends up in this underworld and in Julian’s path. What an exciting read this story was with all the twists and turns and the chemistry between these two characters is off the charts. It was a page turner for me. There are a bunch of other characters that naturally come into the story and I cannot wait to see how the series unfolds and learn more about them as well.

I liked this romance that had a bit of romance mixed in with futuristic sci fi experiments in a Mobster/Mafia setting. Elle/Firefly will do anything to find her foster sister Zoe, even go after the ruthless killer, Ghost.
I loved her courage and gritty spirit and it was pretty cool in the way she would fight to the death if needed.
Ghost/Julian found something in Elle that he had never felt before. She brought out the humanity in the killer he had become because of Omega’s experiments.
Intensely romantic and fast paced.

This book! OMG this book!
I like mafia books, alpha males that don’t fear to protect and tell his feelings and acted on them, I like heroines with no problems of telling what they want, that don’t let anyone to tell her what to do and who can be strong and fierce but at the same time give love and can get a real, beautiful life without leaving her past get it the way… this book is all that and more.
Elle lives in the street with her two best friends Liam and Zoe. Liam is a new police officer an has very special missions related to drugs and dark things, her friend Zoe disappear in a cover mission helping Liam, so Elle goes to the burdel were she disappear to find her. The last thing they hear about Zoe is the name Ghost, so Elle goes looking for him first. One night and in a totally random way Elle meets Julian, dark, serious, indifferent Julian. They have chemistry from the beginning. They fight, scream and are suspicions from each other all the time, until the physical start.
The secrets and bad business make their relationship difficult. But the biggest secret of them all can let them be happy?
Julian is yum! His suits and tattoos are yum! He is my new dark desired!
Elle is everything I want to be, I want to kick and punch just like her, she is my new best friend!
I finished this book in one day and in the end I was “Damn, I need The Team Zero Serie” I can’t wait to read about Shadow, Mist, Flame! I loved them all, they are funny and so sweet.
*I received this ARC for my honest review* —> and so glad I was lucky to have the chance to read it
Wow loved the book, the storyline was well written and the characters Julian and Emmanuelle Were great.The fact that Julian ( Ghost ) Is a trained assassination living in a running bar and brothel. Emmanuelle ( Elle ) goes to the running bar and brothel for a job, but was also on a mission to find her sister. There was alot of action with the steamy hot romance.
Thank you for allowing me to review this book it was great.

The story of the Team Zero survivors continues here with Ghosted, which is the 2nd book in this addictive series that I’ve been loving. Although you don’t necessarily need to, try to read Crowed if you have time, really get the feel for this series before Ghosted is released. The background of some of these unique characters, who are part of Team Zero, are explained in more depth there and WOW, it’s such an amazing start to this series.
Abandoned after her prostitute mother died & left her alone, Elle makes her own way, finds her chosen family in friends, Zoe and Liam. They protect and take care of each other so, when Zoe goes missing, Elle sets out to retrace her last steps which leads her places she knows are dangerous, but goes nevertheless.
Le Salon is home base for the Team Zero members trying to take their back their lives, feelings, minds and bodies, while they attempt to slowly detox from the drug, Omega and from the man who made them what they are and trapped them in this dark world- the puppet master, Hades.
Elle walks head on into this den of criminals, assassins, blood and death, undercover and ready to do whatever she can to find and rescue Zoe, if that’s even possible now. There are many players to sort out and secrets to discover while attempting to find her.
What Elle doesn’t expect is to be drawn towards Julian, mysterious, high ranking key player at Le Salon or to find a friend in Scarlett, her crazy, witty, kickass roommate there.
Julian/Ghost can’t help but notice the newcomer, Elle. He should have his head in the game, be very wary, but he’s becoming distracted.
As unexplained chaos goes down, Julian wonders…is there a traitor on Team Zero and if so, what will be the cost of their betrayal?
You might wonder- assassins, escorts, drugs, where’s the romance here? Let me tell you, there is enough sexy steam here to melt your kindle and lots of suspense to keep you guessing from the edge of your seat. Julian is just, well, hot and protective as hell,but there’s more to him than you can imagine. Elle is gorgeous, feisty, spicey and too curious for her own good. Together, they might just own your heart.
Ghost, I was waiting for you since you revealed your mysterious self in Crowed and Elle, loved you, didn’t see you coming! The wait for Team Zero #2 was sooo worth it!
Rina Kent has entranced me with her Team Zero and Rhodes worlds and I couldn’t step away now if I wanted to, which I DON’T! I am now waiting like a kid at Christmas for her next dark installment.
If you love dark romances, jump on now and enjoy the ride from the early stages of this outstanding series. Don’t worry about cliffhangers, each story has it’s own HFN and continues on into the next book featuring another intriguing character for you to love!
