But I Love Him

Elena Moore has always believed in love. In forgiveness. In keeping her vows-even when it hurts.To the outside world, she has the perfect marriage: a beautiful home, a devoted husband, and a picture-perfect life built on faith. But behind closed doors, Elena hides bruises-on her skin, in her spirit, and deep within her soul. Derek's anger always comes with an apology. His fists with flowers. His silence with tears. And every time, Elena tells herself the same thing: But I love him.As the abuse escalates, Elena's carefully constructed world begins to crumble. Friends disappear. Her faith dims. And the woman she once was fades into a shell of quiet survival. Bound by fear and the belief that God expects her to endure, Elena walks a harrowing path of silence and shame-until a single moment shatters everything.Left broken in a hospital bed, she comes face-to-face with the truth she's long denied: love should not leave scars.Told in raw, intimate first-person prose, But I Love Him is a deeply moving story of a woman's descent into darkness-and the powerful hand of God that pulls her back into the light. It's a story for anyone who has ever confused control with love, silence with strength, or sacrifice with salvation.Sometimes the most courageous prayer is the one that says, "Lord, save me."
