Any Novels That Are Both Angsty and Sweet!!!

I don’t want a purely sweet story, but angst makes me feel awful 😖 Are there any novels with a bit of angst along the way, but definitely a sweet ending?

A Tragic Love of Hatred and Passion!!!

I want a love-hate story where neither the hatred nor the love is complete, where a hint of sincerity is mixed into feigned affection, and a hint of deceit into sincerity. I hate that the moon shines high above, but not on me alone. I hate that the moon shines high above, yet doesn't shine on me. I hate that the moon shines high above, and once shone on me. Are there any stories with this kind of setup?!

Looking for That Bittersweet, Satisfying Feeling, but Not a Truly Angsty Story

It can't be a truly tragic story! I want something where the hero misunderstands the heroine, she leaves, and he has to suffer while trying to win her back. Or where other people know the heroine is awful and unfaithful, but still fall in love with her despite their conflicted feelings. I love melodramatic misunderstandings that make your throat feel tight. They're so satisfying.
