Hawk
She thinks I don’t know.
She thinks she can hide just because I left her alone for fifteen years.
See, I never left.
I’ve been watching, scheming, and calculating until the right moment to strike.
I’m done lurking in the shadows.
Our secret isn’t scary. I am.
Misted is a dark mafia romance, romantic suspense, and a killer romance. For a better understanding of Team Zero’s assassination world, you might want to read the previous books in the series. Misted is a second chance romance, 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
Dark and intense, an amazing continuation to the series! Loved Hawk and Mist. What a story premise!

Take a deep breath, get ready the wine and some tissues, settle in and start to read!
When I first started reading about Team Zero, Misty always appeared to be the quiet, no-nonsense ‘Mother’ to the ladies in the Club. There was nothing that spectacular about her character, she fought with Shadow, was on good terms with Ghost but was never close to anyone.
Misted – opens a whole new world about Misty! You never know what a person has gone through in life, what deep dark secrets they are keeping to their chest.
Misty and Hawk are my new favourite couple! They have been through so much – obsession, pain, betrayal, love, friends, lovers, enemies…they have been through it all. As with all Rina Kent’s – it will be raw, gritty, intense but so so good.

This book hooked me from the get go I just couldn’t put it down I fell in love with these characters and omg what a story just a perfect read I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough it was so good
Mist was never a favorite of mine but after reading her and Hawk’s book, I love her! She went through a lot but did it all for Hawk, she needed him to live even if it wasn’t with her. I loved this book and Rina Kent writes the most amazing books about the characters you wouldn’t normally care about but she makes you care! I cannot wait for more team zero!!!
I really enjoyed this book. Team Zero is dark but has overwhelming love and loyalty between such abused people. Team Zero members are scary violent people with a heart. I loved finding out why Mist was so cold and controlled and what her true relationship and secret was with Hawke. If you are into this series don not miss this one.

I received an ARC in return for an honest review. This book was ok. I preferred this one over the first two in the series. I liked the enemy-to-lovers storyline. Although I should be creeped out, Hawk watching Mist in her room when she thought no one was watching….Hot! While it is only a 3 Star for me I feel others would enjoy it.
This is book number five in the Team Zero series. I have read each and every book so far and have enjoyed them all. This book could still be enjoyed as a standalone but having read the series, made it more enjoyable for me. This book is all about Mist and Hawk. These two are not new agents, in fact they are both from the first Team Zero. As much as these two characters fell in love with one another ultimately and unfortunately, it ends in hate. Now fifteen years later, Hawk has always been circling high above, keeping his eye on Mist but now he is ready for her to see him. What an emotionally charged story that left me reeling in the twists and turns that the author threw into this book. As always, it was a page turning race to see what happened next as most times – I feel like I get the rug pulled out from under me with what happens sometimes. A well written, emotional, action packed read with some sexiness thrown in to put it over the top. Enjoy!

“If it were up to me, if it’d keep him safe, I’d be drowning into his ocean and enjoying every wave.” “Words die in my throat when he crashes his lips against mine.” These are two of the quotes that I just loved from this intense, dark romance. Each book I read from this series, I fall in love with the next, broken, but strong alpha. Ms. Kent evokes so much raw emotion from her amazingly written novels. She has a HUGE FAN in me! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing gift with us!
I highly suggest you start with book one as there are characters that come up in this book from previous books. This is a intense and compelling read. It hooks you in and it’s gripping, gritty filled with raw emotion, action and heartache. Highly recommended

Rina Kent strikes again with her magic pen!
For anyone who has been enjoying this amazing world of Rina Kent’s Team Zero, you must be as curious as I was to read about the take no nonsense Madame of Le Salon, Mist. She is mysterious, evasive, tough beautiful and needs no one to stand up for her, she can do just fine on her own. She would do anything to protect her girls from harm and often does just that, no matter the consequence. That’s what she does for those she cares for, as you’ll see!
There is one person from her past who I have been dying to know more about, you know who I mean, it’s been quite a long time that this man has been held captive and tortured by the evil, sadistic puppeteer of Team Zero, master manipulator, Hades. Haven’t you been wondering about Hawk’s backstory? I sure have!
Why is he being kept so long in the Pit? What is or has been going on between Mist and Hawk that feels like hate one minute and way more in the next? They say there is a fine line between these two emotions so what’s the story here?
Hawk and Mist’s perspectives are explored in all their dark details, perfectly done in a past/present dual POV way which really will keep you guessing and on the edge!!! So many of my favorite characters make appearances as Mist and Hawk circle around each other with their cat and mouse game of hate, betrayal and hidden desires. Hold onto your Kindle or it might melt right onto your lap as these two strong personalities fight an attraction that can’t be denied and steam up everything around them. Whew! Warning- fanning will be necessary!
Hades makes himself known and shows more of himself than ever before. Are we finally getting closer to discovering his true identity? I for one want to know and see who this cruel, demonic man is under his hidden persona.
This was another well told and exciting story that continues the intrigue of Team Zero and I for one am looking forward to continue delving into this dark, fantastic world when Scar, Flame, or will it be Ink, gets to tell their story.
If you haven’t already started reading this wonderful dark series, you are seriously missing out! Get busy!
An advanced copy was provided to me and this is my unbiased review of it.
Gripping and compelling from start to finish as Hawk and Mist claw and fight their way back together. So much suspense, betrayal, violence, and intrigue in this well written dark dark romance.
Hawk and Mist shared a tormented past that had plagued and shaped their dark complicated lives. When they met up again fifteen years after being apart/ghosting one another, their need for revenge and retribution is huge. This lovers to enemies to lovers romance was filled with deeply intense and convoluted emotional scenes. Their past bound them together, but it was their love for each other that kept them functioning.
This was a fast paced, graphic, and violently blood story. Full of content and quite the page turning event!
A true example of why dark romances are such a compelling read.

Wow! This book is simply phenomenal. This is another amazing story of Team Zero series. This dark and suspenseful Mafia romance is packed with murder, mystery, danger, darkness, drugs, passion, and intrigue that make it very interesting and compelling to keep you glued to the pages of this fascinating story. This thrilling and suspenseful story is about Mist, one of Team Zero’s notorious killers, and the madam of Le Salon. Hawk, another Team Zero’s killer, a sniper for The Pit, has been held in captivity and tortured at The Pit for fifteen years. Mist and Hawk have a history—they were lovers since the beginning of The Pit. Mist and Hawk are two individuals that deserve each other and each seem to be heartless monsters in their own right. There is a deep dark secret that Mist is withholding from everyone. Will Hawk be able to find out what Mist’s deep dark secret is, which made them enemies? If Hawk and the other members find out what it is, will this make her the villain of the group? Mist and Hawk are full of surprises–I was flabbergasted with the unexpected revelations that happened, but it is jaw-dropping good! This story will keep you on the edge of your seat to find out what happened next. Not all of its surprises are pleasant ones, but there is a certain satisfaction in experiencing a thread that is so obstinately unexpected. Rina Kent has constructed a deliciously duplicitous dark romance that will lure you into the wee hours and beyond that you will not be able to put this book down. You won’t regret reading Misted!
Finally Mist and Hawk’s story. Throughout the series we get a glimpse of their love/hate relationship. This was a beautiful and heartbreaking story. These two were both part of Team Zero and met when they were young and needed each other, fell in love and through tragedy, lies and deceit ripped apart. This one was emotional and steamy. The chemistry between these two are explosive and hot AF. The best story so far in this series. In Misted we have love, hate, secrets, lies, obsession and sexy, hot steamy sex. Can’t wait to read more from this series. Love the storyline and the characters. Hoping Hades gets what’s coming to him soon.

This is the fifth book in the Team Zero series, and the story of Mist, and Hawk. These characters, have great chemistry, and their story in full of action, suspense, steam, passion, and romance. Great read.
This is one absolute amazing and very addictive series. This book is Mist and Hawks story and what a story it was! With every page I loved these two more and more. They had been separated before and now that hes back hes not willing to let her go again easily no matter how much she fights it or them. This is a second chance story thats intense, so emotional with lots of twists and turns that just had my heart breaking so much but loved every second of it!
I think this is my new favorite one of the series. I think it’s mostly because of all the flashbacks that provided me with a better understanding of where Mist and Hawk came from and how they got to this point. It was hot, chemistry driven, and exciting. Loved both of their characters – strong in their own way and secretly loving the other for the past 15 years. I think it was made much more angsty by Hawk’s silent, brooding character. Waiting for the next one.
Mist and Hawk fell in love over 15 years ago when they knew other and fighting for their lives. They didn’t know it was all going to end the way it did. They didn’t know they were going to ripped apart from each other. There was so much they didn’t know but thought they did.
Once Hawk comes back the chemistry is still there but there is so much between them that they can’t get past it. I just wanted to yell at them and tell them to TALK to each other but knew why they couldn’t.
When everything comes out will they be able to be who each other needs now? Will it be too late for them? Will the secrets just be too much? These two hurt deep in their souls will they be able to heal each other?
I liked the romance, the darkness of the book, the drama and guessing who was behind the messages and of course the love.
DEEP, DARK AND TWISTED!!!
OMG! Rina really brings it together in this amazing tale. Twixt and twined and put through the wringer as we witness all the trials and tribulations the characters struggle throughout. Such depth and individuality. Strong characters, amazing storylines with outstanding plots keeps you immersed till the end. Twists and turns, ups and downs, along with a few glitches and scrapes really bring this bad boy bursting to life flawlessly. The scenes are written with such realism it’s easy to get drawn into this incredibe work of art. Remarkable job Rina, thanks for sharing this little guy with us.
I’ve been on the fence with my feelings about Mist from what I’ve seen in the previous books. She takes great care of her girls at LeSalon, but she’s always seemed cold. I assumed that to be a side effect of Omega. Apparently, it’s also a side effect of her past with Hawk. They became friends when she was first taken captive, and then separated later on. These two are absolutely explosive when they’re reunited. I never anticipated all the twists in this story. Please don’t read this as a standalone – it will make much more sense with all the background filled in.
