Somewhere to Begin (Poison and Wine Series, Book 1) by Mika Jolie
Date of Publication: February 23, 2017
Blurb
There are wounds that never show on the body.
For twenty-nine years, Colbie Bennington does as expected with an eternal smile stained on her lips. The biggest chances she's ever taken can be counted on one hand, three fingers to be exact—her battered red chucks, painting her toenails a vibrant blue, and her wedding dress. Always the dutiful daughter and a Stepford fiancée, she has never acted on impulse, never been in love.
She's never lived.
On her wedding day, Colbie ends a toxic relationship, drops the fake smile, and says, "I can't do this anymore."
Navy SEAL Zander Serrano returns home broken and burdened with a volcano of remorse. Too trapped in a mental war to be at peace and too damaged to be at war, he shuts the world out. The last thing he expects is to feel, especially for a runaway bride with her own baggage.
Two empty hearts marred in different spots find themselves drawn to one another. Each with their own scars. Some, the world can see. Others, unseen to the naked eye.
They say two broken people should not be together. But for Colbie and Zander, their attraction is undeniable, unexpected.
Can two souls with fractured parts be the best cure for each other's wounds?
Starting over is never easy, but sometimes in life, everyone needs somewhere to begin.

Review
I really enjoyed Zander and Colbie's story. Somewhere to Begin really shows and explains the mental and physical struggle of PTSD as well as the abusive relationship that Colbie was in with her ex-fiance. The struggles that both Zander and Colbie have actually bring them closer together. This is a great book for someone who is looking for a military romance novel.
