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.

Ella's heart raced, expecting him to confess his feelings that might change everything between them.
"Ella," Jasper called out. He wanted to tell her how he felt about her, but the words he desired to speak eluded him. He had delayed expressing his feelings in the past and lost the love of his life. But he wouldn't repeat the mistake.
Jasper wanted to let her know that he wanted her even if she rejected her.
Ella's excitement peaked, eager to hear his confession. She leaned in, hoping for the words she had been waiting to hear. "You were saying something," she murmured, her anticipation palpable.
"Yes, um…" Jasper struggled to find the right words, his hesitation and an unspoken fear holding him back. He tore his gaze from her, scratching his temples in a moment of unease. "I-I wanted to thank you," he stammered, his voice betraying his inner turmoil.
