She was trained to assess risk. But nothing prepared her for the moment her husband chose to die.
When Gabriella glances up from her romance novel, she sees something that doesn’t belong in their bedroom—a gun. In the hands of her husband. Between his lips.
What unfolds is a harrowing, minute-by-minute fight for life, love, and one more tomorrow. As the seconds stretch and shatter, Gabriella must decide how far she’s willing to go—and what part of herself she’s willing to lose—to pull him back from the edge.
Taut, lyrical, and devastatingly intimate, I Love You So Much is a literary gut punch that explores the quiet crisis behind closed doors and the fierce, complicated love that won’t let go.
A short story for anyone who’s ever loved someone through their darkest moment.
