Beautiful Delusions by Ember-Raine Winters

This was a very emotional book. Kaylee, the main character, has PTSD from a past abusive relationship. You get a real sense of her suffering through vivid flashbacks. You also see how the PTSD affects not only her, but the people in her life. She has two children. There were a few times that situations occurred and it happened in front of the children, which makes it even more sad because they are so innocent and don't need to see any of that. And I kinda wished Kaylee watched her language in front of them. I was confused at one point in the beginning. Kaylee was in a car accident and not much detail of her injuries were explained. I would've enjoyed to know more of that.
Griffin is her main love interest, who she also knew in the past, but they hadn't seen each other in years. Unless I missed it, it wasn't too clear what happened to cause such a rift between them. But Griffin is back in her life and one of the people helping with her PTSD. I really liked Griffin. He was sensitive to Kaylee's needs and very protective of her. I also liked the members of his security team. They had great personalities.
The only thing to really bum me out was it ended in a cliffhanger, and I'm not a huge fan of those. Of course, I gotta read the next book to find out what happens! There were suspense elements in this book as well. So if you're looking for a read with a bit of suspense and emotional impact, this is your book!
