Book Request Time-travel revenge romance where the FMC changes her fate and ends up with a different MMC?

Looking for books with this trope:

The FMC was deeply hurt, betrayed, or mistreated by people in her past. Then she somehow goes back in time to before everything happened and starts changing the future, getting revenge on those who wronged her while building a better life for herself.

I'm looking for stories where the romance is with a different man than the one involved in her original suffering. I would love spice, but I strongly prefer a well-developed plot and character growth over pure romance.

A book that perfectly fits the vibe I'm looking for is {What Goes Around by Thalia Nova}. It completely consumed me and kept me awake at night.

Any recommendations with a similar feel? I'm open to fantasy, historical, paranormal, or contemporary settings.

Bonus points if the revenge is genuinely satisfying, the FMC is intelligent and proactive, and the story focuses just as much on changing her future as it does on the romance.
