Description
“I should have killed you.” Duchess Cardius has died. The cause of death was poisoning. It was a death that did not suit her epithet as a witch of poison. At her funeral, Her husband, Lahart, recited his marriage vows without blinking an eye. In fact, he had not said a word at their wedding. “I will not allow even death to break our vows and take you away from me.” The name he loved most in the world, is now a name more cursed than anyone else’s. “Irelaide.” Lahart couldn’t even imagine it. His own wife, who was laid in the coffin by his own hands, Was watching him from among the mourners. “…You killed our child.” “Irene, that’s what you said back then.” “I lied to you. Just like what you did.” Irene wiped the blood flowing from her child’s lips with a handkerchief. Lahart felt that something was wrong as he looked at her trembling hand and lips. “…It’s your child.” Irene hugged the limp Rian and sobbed out a voice mixed with tears. “Rian is your child. You killed our child. Twice.”

My Thoughts on After You Regret
"After You Regret" dives headfirst into a world of aristocracy, poison, and the tangled web of love and revenge. As a reader who enjoys a good dose of drama, I was intrigued by the premise, though I approached it with a healthy dose of caution, given some of the darker themes.
First Impressions
The story sets a stage rife with potential. We have a female lead skilled in the art of antidotes, seemingly caught in a situation where she may or may not have poisoned the male lead. The initial setup grabbed my attention, promising a complex exploration of betrayal and forgiveness.
What Works Well
The writing and pacing are definitely strengths. The plot, while perhaps leaning into familiar tropes, is executed in a way that keeps you turning the page. The female lead is also a compelling character. Her resilience and determination, especially after having her son, Rian, make her someone you root for, even when she's grappling with trauma and guilt. I found her development to be a particularly engaging aspect of the story.
Areas of Concern
The male lead's behavior is a significant sticking point. His actions, described as cruel and vengeful, raise serious red flags. While the angst is palpable, it's hard to fully invest in a romance where the power dynamic is so skewed. I struggled to reconcile his moments of apparent tenderness with his overall treatment of the female lead. It left me questioning his true feelings and motivations, and whether a satisfying redemption arc is even possible.

Final Verdict
"After You Regret" is a difficult novel to score. On one hand, it's a well-written, dramatic story with a strong female lead. On the other hand, the male lead's actions and the potentially triggering content make it a challenging read. Ultimately, whether you enjoy this novel will depend on your tolerance for morally grey characters and your willingness to endure significant angst in pursuit of a (hopefully) satisfying resolution. I'd recommend approaching it with caution and a clear understanding of the darker elements at play.
