Before she became a mother, Alma was a girl who wrote poems in the margins of silence. Now, alone and pregnant after a broken promise, she is visited by Gloria—an ancient spirit who walks the unseen Courts of Motherhood, where sacrifice wears a crown and love is recorded in acts no one notices.

Told through poetic prose, haunting inner monologues, and otherworldly encounters, She Who Loved Before Herself is a luminous novel about the quiet power of maternal love. Alma's journey through exhaustion, rejection, invisible service, and spiritual inheritance will resonate with anyone who has ever given more than they thought they had—and still chosen to rise.

This is not just Alma's story. It is the story of every woman who has loved before herself.

A tender, unflinching tribute to single mothers, spirit-adoptive bonds, and the sacred art of surviving with love intact.
