Dear Brother, Your Regret Came Too Late

Stephanie has spent most of her life as an unwanted presence in her own home. Her mother died giving birth to her, and instead of compassion she received only neglect from her father Morris and cruelty from her brother Alexander. The few moments of connection she cherished were rare acts of kindness from Alexander, the one person whose approval she longed for.

Everything changes when their cousin Abigail moves in and Alexander's affection shifts entirely to her, leaving Stephanie lonelier than ever. In his resentment, Alexander even says out loud that he wishes Stephanie had died instead of their mother. Fate seems to grant his bitter wish when Stephanie is diagnosed with cancer, but her death forces Alexander to face a devastating truth he can't escape.

Left to live with the consequences of his words and his neglect, Alexander must confront the ruin of his own life and the crushing weight of regret.
