\"synopsis\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ren Lewis has the life he\u2019s always wanted: the perfect woman and the perfect job as an agent for the Lucidites, fixing problems before they happen. And yet, he\u2019s still miserable. He blames the monster buried inside of him for his problems. But what this redheaded Brit doesn\u2019t realize is his life is about to be intensely transformed. Problems that he never could have fathomed begin to surface one at a time until his life quickly spirals out of control. Ren, who has never considered himself quite human, is about to learn just how flawed and vulnerable he really is. There just might be problems he doesn\u2019t have answers for, villains he can\u2019t defeat alone, and a heart in his chest that is actually capable of breaking. Readers witness a new side to this man, a side that will make him, if for only an instant, appear human. This powerful genius will meet his match. And she has the ability to do something special. She can break Ren Lewis.<\/p>\n

*I received this book in exchange for an honest review*<\/p>\n

Ren is baaaaack! And what a surprise! Oh. My. Gods. Ren is the snarky, red-headed man with the \u201cI don\u2019t care about anyone\u201d attitude that we all love to hate. He does not disappoint…not even a little bit.<\/p>\n

Ren is working for the Lucidites, the dream travelers who are all about helping humanity. Ren has come to terms that if he is going to have his \u201ccurse\u201d he may as well use it for something good. He and Dahlia are working on their relationship. Both very much in love with themselves and in love with the misery they miss when they are without the each other. This is the only spoiler I am going to give. Are you ready for it? The bombshell??? Ren has a daughter! Adelaide! She is so much like her father. But Adelaide being in his life has upset Dahlia and their relationship is put to the test. Adelaide is a teenager but Ren takes her in to help her, not because he wants to have her in his life but he is afraid of the damage she can do with her powers if she is not taught. And so the journey begins with Ren and his daughter. In the midst of everything there are kidnappings occurring to other dream travelers and they are causing a chaos of sorts. Ren is trying to deal with his cases, his daughter, his love life, and his health. Ren is seriously put to the test but this story is so amazing! Witty, fun, and action packed! Can\u2019t wait for more!!!!<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been in hiding for almost two decades,\u201d I say. \u201cSo excuse me for not being around to tell you to slit your throat before you created a huge problem. It\u2019s never too late and that\u2019s my advice. You\u2019re dangerous and should just off yourself and save us all the trouble.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re kind of fun, you know, like a snowball fight, chilly and piercing but still entertaining\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m afraid of being out there,\u201d she says, pointing to the window, meaning the world. I nod again. I acutely remember having those same fears. It\u2019s hard being in a world that doesn\u2019t understand me and that I can so easily break. It\u2019s a wretched combination, like God was hoping I\u2019d try and destroy his world and was just testing my self-control.<\/p>\n

So, Ren has a daughter that is soooooo much like him. It\u2019s incredibly endearing how they are wearing each other down. Ren is still Ren, but you see him starting to change…a softer, snarkier Ren.<\/p>\n

Sarah Noffke, if you\u2019re out there and reading this, I NEED MORE REN!<\/p>\n

\"Melinda's<\/a><\/p>\n

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.<\/p>\n

I absolutely LOVE Ren and was thrilled when I found out this was going to be a series. He is the guy you love to hate. He has attitude and does not hold back when he doesn\u2019t like you or if he as something on his mind (just ask Aiden or John). He is in a good place right now he works for the Lucidites and has Dahlia but it is ingrained in him to be miserable. He wants more complicated files but due to his health issues Trey is keeping him away from high stress assignments. Did I tell you we get to see Dr. Raydon if you read Sarah Noffke\u2019s series the Vagabond Circus you may remember him. Yes, Aiden and Roya form the Lucitites series also make an appearance. I love that Sarah entwines characters from her other series. Sorry got side tracked OK back the Review. Things are going good for Ren until someone comes knocking at his door and completely tilts Ren\u2019s world. Dahlia leaves him and he is left to deal with what\u2019s standing on his doorstep alone.<\/p>\n

It was great to see a new side to Ren although we do not see it often when we do its great. Ren is trying to deal with his assignments and the changes in his life all while having Trey on him about his personal health issues. I cannot reveal much more without giving spoilers.\u00a0 However, there are twists (oh sooo many great twists), great plot and even had me cracking up.\u00a0 I love Ren and his snarky, sarcastic, and funny sides but enjoyed seeing his softer caring side in this book. I cannot wait for the next book I need to know who is behind Ren\u2019s assignments and to know how things are going to go in his personal life.<\/p>\n

A few of my favorite lines:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat are you smiling about?\u201d I say. \u201cYou\u2019re kind of fun, you know, like a snowball fight, chilly and piercing but still entertaining.\u201d She says. \u201cI\u2019m not fun at all. Ask anyone. They\u2019ll tell you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell living on sleeping pills isn\u2019t an option for you. So you have two alternatives. You can learn to dream travel properly so you don\u2019t create disturbances while sleeping. Or you can off yourself. Your call,\u201d I say. \u201cYou don\u2019t have many friends, do you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHappy people are the worst.\u201d She says, crossing her arms in front of her chest. \u201cThe majority of them have no bloody reason for being happy. If most people really saw themselves for the rejects they are they\u2019d wipe that stupid grin off their face.\u201d<\/p>\n
