Thorns of Regret

Description

When a wealthy and ruthless patriarch dies, his will leaves his younger son disinherited on charges of extravagance, and his adopted daughter with a mere pittance, while the cold eldest son inherits the entire fortune. The younger son, already nursing a lifetime of slights, is devastated further when his betrothed casts him aside for a richer match.

Consumed by a thirst for revenge, he impulsively turns to the only loyal heart left—the sweet, golden-haired girl who has secretly loved him—and proposes a hasty wedding, not out of love, but to strike back at all who have wronged him. As the shocking ceremony takes place before stunned relatives, deep-seated family secrets and ghostly rumors begin to surface.

Set among the shadowed halls of a grand estate, this tale weaves murderous grudges, spectral legends, and bitter heartbreak. Can a marriage founded on spite ever heal old wounds, or will the thorns of regret choke any hope of joy?
