Temperamental Ghost

Any Free Novels with a Bad Ending? Most of Them Seem to Be Sweet Romance

I'm looking for a breakup that stays permanent, something heartbreaking enough to make me cry. But I don't want a mindless story or one with a saintly, self-sacrificing heroine. Nothing set in modern times, though: it's too easy to get immersed and then I can't get back out 😭
