Love Me Like It Hurts: "He Couldn't Let Her Go-Even If It Destroyed Them Both"

By CRYSTAL HOLSTEIN

I thought love was supposed to feel safe.
Like home. Like belonging.

But with Luke, it was different.
With him, love felt like walking barefoot across shattered glass.
Every step cut me deeper.
And still-I couldn't let go.

He wasn't gentle. He wasn't easy.
He was fire. Wild. Magnetic. Dangerous.
And I thought my love could save him.
I thought I could save myself.

I was wrong.

I lost friends.
I lost myself.
And still-I stayed.

Now, I'm trying to rebuild.
For my son. For the woman I used to be.
But just when I think I've survived the storm, a truth comes crashing down that threatens everything.

This isn't a love story.
It's a story of obsession.
Of wounds that never quite heal.
Of learning to stand, even when you're still bleeding.

Love Me Like It Hurts is raw. Real. Unforgiving.
It's about the kind of love that destroys you-
and If you've ever been broken by love-or found the courage to rise from it-this story will stay with you long after the last page.
