Review
Team Zero series continues with book number five, a new standalone, second-chance, dark mafia romance, Misted by Rina Kent! I have been completely obsessed with the members of Team Zero ever since I read Crowed. I have been quick to snatch up every single release since! Misted is a part of a series but all books in the series can be read as a standalone. I have enjoyed all of the books in the series thus far, but Misted, WOW! I am completely blown away with our FIRST ruthless lady of Team Zero, and she has most definitely met her match with Hawk!
Told in dual POV, Mist and Hawk’s relationship started years ago when they were both thrown in the hell named The Pit. If you have been reading the series you’ll know what I’m talking about, if not then let’s just say it’s a horrible, horrible place run by a despicable man named Hades. The two forged a bond while in the Pit training to be assassins and going through Omega experimentations.
Until Mist betrays Hawk.
For 15 years these two have stayed away from each other. For 15 years the hate has built and built and built. But now Hawk is back, and he wants to make Mist hurt as much as she hurt him. But what Hawk doesn’t know is everything that happened years ago, happened for a reason. And it’s not the one he’s thinking.
So when Ghost leaves town and calls Hawk in to help with the warehouses and Le Salon in his absence, Mist will be forced to come face to face with the man that hates her, and the man that she’s loved from afar for the better half of her life.
“She used to be my heaven. Now, she’s a disease with no fucking cure.”
WOW! So I have to be honest, I am completely in love with all of Team Zero but I must say, prior to this book… I did NOT like Mist… like at all. I have no clue how in the world she did it but Rina completely changed my opinion of the “old hag” in Misted. Kent is still a new-ish author with six releases under her belt and a whole lot more coming soon but over the last few releases, I have watched her writing and her style develop and absolutely excel and with Misted, she killed it! Absolutely wonderful!
“Your madness is my drug and I keep falling like an insane person in the asylum.”
I love how the story flipped back and forth between the past and present, while sometimes that can get confusing, the pages were well marked so you knew exactly when and where each scene was taking place. Everything flowed really cohesively.
Mist, now like I said I didn’t care for her at first but watching her with Hawk and then finding out WHY she did what she did in the past and EVERYTHING that had happened that led up to her doing what she did, GAHHH. My heart broke for her, and for Hawk. She’s strong, resilient, loyal to a fault, and an all-around badass b***h!
“I want to smother her, own her, and become the fucking air she breathes.”
Hawk we really didn’t know too much about, he was being held captive by Hades up until recently so we didn’t really know anything about him until he showed up to “help” Mist in Ghost’s absence. But we quickly find out, he’s alpha all the way! He’s quiet, so when he speaks you know it’s important, strong, broody, protective, and extremely in love with Mist even though he wants to hate her so, so bad for the wrongs that she has done to him.
“That wasn’t torture. That was my gradual descent to fucking insanity.”
These two… there were just so much betrayal, pain, and secrets between them that the love that was there (that had ALWAYS been there) was shoved to the back. Their relationship is volatile at times but man oh man did it make for some sizzling chemistry! They have been through so, so much that you can’t help but root for them to FINALLY make it TOGETHER! Trust me, keep the tissues on standby because there are a couple scenes that will break you down, guys!
The steamy scenes were smoking hot, but the book wasn’t overfilled with so much sex either that it would make you want to skim. Oh, and can I just say, that table scene… when you read it, you’ll know EXACTLY what I am talking about, change of panties, please! 🔥🔥🔥
“This will be mine.” He thrusts another finger inside my slick entrance so I’m full with him. “This has always been mine. The sooner you accept that, the better.”
The ending… GAHHHH! Be still my heart. If any characters deserved a happy ending, it was these two, and they most definitely got it.
“I choose you. Even if I’m fucking dying, I’ll choose you over myself, Hellion.”
There’s action, suspense, angst (oh my, the angst!), awesome well developed main characters as well as secondary characters, and so, so much more! I loved seeing Shadow (#ShadowsMineILickedHim), and I can NOT wait for the rest of Team Zero to get their stories especially Flame and Ink, there’s something dark and devious about those two. But I REALLY can’t wait for the little psycho barbie doll, Scar, to get her story, I have a feeling that one is going to be CRAZY!
Obviously, I’m a fan of #TeamZero and I am beyond ready for the next installment in this kickass series, and to FINALLY see Team Zero come together to bring Hades down for good!
I highly recommend Misted, as well as the rest of Team Zero!
“Hug.”
