A poor girl born with congenital heart disease has not had much hope for the future, but her life takes a sharp turn when a wealthy, handsome man proposes marriage to her following her heart transplant. It was the most surprising thing to happen to her in her 22 years of life. Abigail had never thought that Christopher Sherman, a young, multibillionaire businessman, would approach her and express his desire to marry her. She was ecstatic and accepted his proposal. But little did she know that the 32-year-old handsome guy had a secret reason for wanting to marry her. Abigail stepped into his world with a lot of hope in her heart. But marrying him was not the happy ending. It was just the beginning. Will she be able to keep her heart from breaking? What will happen if she discovers his true motive? ============= "Life was easy before I married you," said Abigail with pain in her eyes. “I was dying, but I was happy.” “What do you mean?” Christopher clasped her arm. “Stop talking nonsense and eat the medicine,” he hissed, placing a tablet in her palm. Under his fiery gaze, Abigail cowered. "Do you find it difficult to meet my demand for a baby? It has been two years, Christopher." He didn’t answer her question. All he did was stare at her, acting mute. “Why do I feel like you don’t care about my feelings?” Abigail asked. “Don’t you love me?” His silence was the clear answer. ============= A special thanks to Aurora, my editor, for her helpful suggestions on how to improve the synopsis.

Christopher kept staring at her, the familiar floral scent entrancing him. He relished the electric sensation her fingers sent when they gently brushed against his chest while stitching.
He hoped he could wrap his arms around her and never leave her again. But he also expected her to be honest with him. He thought he would talk to her. Just then, he saw her lowering her head and cutting the thread with her teeth.
His heart skipped a beat. He held his breath, all his thoughts evaporating. Adrenaline shot up, and his feral desire rose. He grabbed her arms and pinned her against the wall, kissing her hungrily. He wanted to tell her that she couldn't be thinking about another man while still married to him. He wanted to show her with his kiss that she could not keep anything from him.
"It's done…" Her soft voice jolted him out of his trance.
