How Can I Love You
Some wounds don’t come from lovers.
They come from the people who were supposed to love you first.
How Can I Love You is a raw, emotionally charged story about what happens when parental trauma quietly rewires the way you love, trust, and survive—long before romance ever enters the picture.
At the center of it all is Jainey.
Young. Guarded. Sharp-tongued. Still learning the difference between wanting love and knowing how to receive it.
This isn’t a fairytale.
It’s a coming-of-age unraveling—messy choices, blurred boundaries, desire used as distraction, and the slow realization that intimacy doesn’t fix what neglect planted years ago.
The romance is intense. Addictive. Complicated.
But the real story is Jainey learning how to sit with herself—unlearning survival habits, confronting emotional abandonment, and asking the hardest question of all:
How do you love someone else when you don’t know how to love yourself yet?
This book doesn’t rush healing.
It doesn’t soften the damage.
It tells the truth.
A raw, emotionally intense novel for mature readers.
