Unfortunately, without more research or prior knowledge, I can't tell you the author of this 'amor de mae novel'. It could be an independent author or from a small - scale publisher. There are so many works out there, and this title doesn't immediately ring a bell in terms of a well - known author.
I'm not sure specifically as there could be many novels with this name. It might be about a mother's love. Maybe it tells the story of a mother's selfless love for her children, her sacrifices and the strong bond between them.
The novels may also have a strong sense of atmosphere. Since they are in the realm of romance, settings could be dreamy, like old castles or beautiful gardens. The descriptions of these settings, combined with the poetic language, create a world that is both alluring and immersive for the readers.
'Wuthering Heights' is also a great choice. The intense and often turbulent love between Heathcliff and Catherine is expressed in a very evocative and almost poetic way. The moors and the wild setting add to the overall atmosphere of a passionate, if somewhat dark, love story.
Since I don't know the exact story, it could potentially be about a figure who met a watery end and was considered beautiful in a way that defies normal expectations. It could be a story about love and loss, where the person who drowned was remembered in a special way that made them seem the most beautiful. It might also be a story with a moral or lesson, perhaps about the transience of life and the power of memory.
Faire un visual novel involves several steps. Storytelling is key. Outline your plot, develop your characters, and think about the different paths the story can take if it's a branching narrative. For the art part, you can collaborate with an artist if you're not skilled in that area. Regarding the programming side, if you're using a tool like Twine, it has a relatively simple interface for creating the structure of the visual novel. Don't forget about the user interface design. It should be intuitive so that the players can easily navigate through the story.
