Before You, After Me is a deeply vulnerable and beautifully written journey through the kind of love that breaks you wide open-and the healing that brings you home to yourself.
Told in lyrical, reflective chapters, the book follows the emotional evolution of a woman who once lost herself in the name of love. It begins in the raw, tender space of heartbreak, where she confesses the truths she never said out loud-the loneliness of being with someone emotionally distant, the ache of being unseen, and the quiet unraveling that came with always giving more than she received.
But this is not just a breakup story. It is a love story-but not the one you expect. It's about the love between the woman she was before him, the woman who loved him too much, and the woman she finally becomes after choosing herself.
She writes through the temptations to go back, the ache of solitude, the quiet power of healing, and the complicated beauty of learning to trust again. She opens herself to new love-not the kind that asks her to shrink, but the kind that sees her, holds her, and invites her to stay soft and strong at the same time.
