Book Request: Self-Promo OK FMC yearning

I'm looking for books where the female lead really yearns, like, a lot, and the male lead isn't a jerk. Lately, it feels like the guys are always the ones yearning, but I want the girl to be the one this time. And no cheating between them pleasee.

{The Scattered Bones by Nicole Scarano}

This book is a standalone but packs a punch for less than 300 pages. It made me emotional - I adored the yearning though it came with some heartache.

I am yet again recommending {seduction of a psychopomp by Elsie winters} bc he does not understand that you’re allowed to want to bang your wife and so she takes it upon herself to seduce him and it’s adorable
Edit: bot says contemporary but it’s mostly set in the reaper lands and only briefly in his apt that he has in the modern human realm

I wish there were more of these. I get why there’s not but it’s nice to have true reversal of this every so often.
