Don’t get noticed.

Zoey “Zero D” Danson thought it was an easy rule to follow. For years she toiled in cubicle 12A of the NSA’s data farm compiling security briefings and Intelligence reports. But she put her neck on the line and burned a dirty government operation to keep a covert ops team alive.

Now she’s “one of them.” She’s not a nameless, faceless civilian anymore. She’s part of The Arsenal—and in way, way over her head.

Trust no one.

Gage Sanderson recognizes a threat when he sees it, and the newest geek in The Arsenal’s back office is trouble. She’s smart, secretive, sexy, and everything he shouldn’t want. They risked their necks to keep her safe, but she’s hiding something and it’s up to him to figure out what.

He’s sworn to never trust another crew at his back, but his team is worth the risk. He won’t make the same mistake twice—even if it means killing the only woman who’s ever made her way past his defenses.

Loved it, Love this series!

Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2018

Love this series, it keeps getting better and better. Zero Trace picks up not long after Blood Vows ends. Not a stand alone story.

Zoey has proved a valuable asset to the Arsenal, but Gage knows little bit is hiding something. He is determined to find out what it is. The Arsenal is his family, just as much as his mom and sisters are, and he is determined to protect them. No matter how attracted he is to the tiny purple haired tornado, if she proves to be a threat he will eliminate her.

Zoey has learned so much over the last few months working at the Arsenal. She has been pulled into the family, making true friends and is finding a home. It is getting harder and harder to keep her secret, from them. Helping people escape abusive situations, and erasing their existence if needed, is her passion. Secrecy is what keeps every one safe. Her networks is getting to big for her and her boots on the ground operative Jade to handle. Jade wants her to come clean to the Arsenal, confident that they will help. Zoey does trust the Arsenal. She doesn't want to bring trouble to them. She is losing the lines between Zoey and her alter ego Zero.

Zoey's hand is forced, before she was burned at the NSA rescuing Fallon's team, she put in hiding the daughter and granddaughter of a Congressman. Now her dirty former boss has brought the Congressman to the Arsenal's gates. He is demanding Zoey, and that she gives up the location of his daughter and granddaughter. When Zoey sees the level they will go through to protect her, she makes a decision to trust the Arsenal. She confronts the Congressman and sends him running. Gage is now all in with his little bit and protecting her Network after seeing her in action.

The Arsenal leaders are blown away by what Zoey has been doing as Zero, and how her Network works. They are hurt, but understanding, of why she didn't trust them. They jump right in learning her Network and helping her cover her "Dots". Moving the Congressman's daughter and granddaughter are their priority. The Arsenal compound under the care of mamma Mason, and their medical staff is where she needs to be.

The Congressman is not giving up easily. They find that Zoey's dirty boss has ties to the Collective and in a confrontation, Gage's demons are revealed. He is ready to face them. He has his Arsenal family and his little bit back him up. He is ready to step back in the roll as a Team Lead.

Jade goes missing. The Network is in danger and the orphan operatives step up to protect them. Jud's friend Kristof wants Zoey's help finding someone in exchange for helping rescue Jade, and putting them in a position to remove the threat of her former boss and the Congressman. Addy willingly pays the price. Then Zoey is taken. Mamma Mason is hurt in the process. Gage finds a team in the "Triple Threat". They are ready to help Loverboy find his little bit.

Zoey is home. A very large and very cathartic group therapy session, pulls the Arsenal operatives closer together. Mamma Mason is on the mend and Ellie steps up and gets her home ready for her recovery.

Zoey, with the help of Gage, the Triple Threat, Addy's team and Fallon, organizes an explosive pay back to Kristof on Addy's behalf.

Loved Gage and Zoey's story. A fast paced and steamy romantic paramilitary suspense. Loved meeting Addy's team. Cant's wait till she finds her other half. Loved meeting the Triple Threat. Maybe Bree has found someone in Ram. Can't wait for Jesse and Ellie's story.

I love Cara's books. They are an automatic buy for me. I know I will get a great story. I had already preordered this book and was lucky to receive an advanced copy.

Hot! Hot! Hot! Cara Carnes delivers another masterpiece filled with suspense, action, romance, and heart! I love that there are multiple storylines, the focus of this book is Zoey and Gage but you have the overall Arsenal storyline that runs through each book which creates this beautiful continuity. Side note, I highly recommend reading the Arsenal series in order - Jagged Edge, Sight Lines, Blood Vows, Zero Trace. Once again I find myself amazed at Carnes ability to stay true to the secondary characters and their storylines while showcasing the main characters. While Carnes touches on some dark topics, she does is it in an honest and uplifting way - the characters find ways to cope and most people can relate to it in some way. I've also found myself more and more curious about Jesse and his backstory. Carnes has shared a little more about Jesse in each book, but my interest was really piqued while reading this one. Especially since we got a closer look at Ellie and I'm eager to find out what the history is between her and Jesse.

Zoey is another great female character created by Cara Carnes. While she may not be able to kick anyone's butt in person she will definitely be able to take them down digitally. Zoey is so different in personality from the other women who work at the Arsenal but that is what makes her interesting. And the way Gabe falls for her is swoon worthy. Cara Carnes writes female characters whose strength comes in all different flavors and Zoey is no different. Zoey uses her intelligence and computer skills to take down the worst of the worst. And Gabe is determined to protect her even from herself. Another winner from Cara Carnes.

Second time through series

Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2019

I first read about your series through the counterstrike book. It got me interested in the back story of The Arsenal storyline and finally found this series..
I really loved the CASA part as I have been a CASA (Court appointed special advocate ) for 17 years now. However we would not be involved in that situation nor that soon but enjoyed it in this story.
Now the next big question Where is the next book? Its listed as coming our February 2019 and were half way through that already. I hope each one of the members get their HEA as well as a few more side characters.
Worth the rereads when I just need something but don't know what. I couldn't remember the series name when I thought of Mary and Vi so amazon and I went through a lot trying to type keywords in to find it but now onto Z story and maybe by then the next new one will be ready...
Better be or I'll send off a zinger. Good series.
Just re-read this and realized it was under wrong book, I had just finished Blood vows and hadn't even downloaded Zero trace yet but rereading it now.😎

So much craziness. I feel like that’s every book but it get better and better. Loved Gage and we get to really know him in this book and all he suffered at the hand of the collective. Wow. Then we learn about all the people Zoey has been saving and helping. That’s incredible. They fit together. With their weird quirks and adorable banter. She is a powerhouse of emotion and I loved watching all the times she stood up and defended the weak and helpless. It was amazing. Especially when it was one of their own. Can’t wait to hear more about Ellie. Loved seeing all the previous book characters and the kids. So awesome. And so excited for next generation of quillery edge!! So excited for jesses book.

Zero and Gage find themselves in the middle of a fight for their lives, an emotional rollercoaster with more twists than a corkscrew and a deathdrop you don't see coming they fight, they plan, they rescue and they protect and somewhere in the middle of all the madness, fire and sass they fall in love....steaming hot, sizzle your kindle, sexy, need you to breathe, love! Like all at The Arsenal the fight hard, fall hard and love hard! Love it!

These books just get better and better, I love how the heroines are strong independent kickass warriors, and if you’ve read this series then you already know the guys at The Arsenal are so protective of their friends, family and anybody who is in need of a helping hand.
I adored Zoey and Gage together, the romance was just right, the suspense kept me turning the pages.
The author writes in a way it’s difficult to put down. Great read!

Yet again Cara knocked this out of the ball park - focusing on Zoey and Gage while continuing to give us the characters and couples we've previously fallen in love with. I loved the interaction between Gage and Zoey and the introduction of Triple Threat and how Addy's team utterly adore and protect the woman. I wish I could give it more than five stars.
