Arranged marriage with lots of hurt/angst
Looking for a book where the fmc and mmc are in an arranged marriage for whatever reason. Fmc wants to make it work, maybe shes even in love with the mmc, but mmc is in love with someone else. I want the mmc to be indifferent or even downright mean to the fmc. He will late come to regret his treatment and then ensues a lot of hurt and angst. I want a good grovel.
Books I liked that have similar tropes:
The woes of wooing a wife in 12 days by Mihwa Lee
Books with similar tropes that I didnt like: Ravishing the heiress by Sherry Thomas
Why I didnt like it: There was no grovel or even an apology and there was no satisfying conclusion.
Thanks:)
