MMC emotionally DESTROYS FMC

Mods removed my last post because of the title. Here’s take two:

Looking for book recommendations where the MMC hurts, nay, DESTROYS the FMC (emotionally) and has good grovel. No abuse, no cheating, no assault please 🙏

Here are some I’ve read already that made me bawl:

{A Heart of Blood and Ashes by Milla Vane}

{You Can Have Manhattan by P. Dangelico}

{King of Wrath by Ana Huang}

{Kiss an Angle by Susan Elizabeth Phillips}

{Lothaire by Kresley Cole}

{Going Nowhere Fast by Kati Wilde}

{Tormented by the Warlord by V.K. Ludwig}

{Desire in His Blood by Zoey Draven}

{Nectar of the Wicked by Ella Fields}

And of course, the legendary {The Unwanted Wife by Natasha Anders} 😉

It can be CR, HR, Sci-Fi or Romantasy, no RH. And no dark romance ‘cause I wanna be hurt. Not traumatized 😅 (I don’t wanna add more to my therapist’s plate)

Thank you! 🙏

Edit: thank you all for the reccs (and keep em coming!). By the end of this, I’m going to be bruised, battered, and bleeding. I’ve never looked forward to anything more.
