The Billionaire's Sick Wife
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.

Left alone at the bar.
Ella felt her cheeks flush as Jasper leaned closer to her, his warm breath caressing her ear. The ambient lighting of the club cast a soft glow on his face, accentuating the defined angles of his jawline and the depth of his gray eyes. Despite the noise and activity surrounding them, Ella focused solely on Jasper, her senses heightened by his proximity.
Ella was acutely aware of the closeness between them, the heat radiating from his body, and how his eyes seemed to bore into hers. Her composure threatened to slip away; her emotions were in turmoil.
"Smile," Jasper urged, his voice dripping with persuasion.
Without thinking, Ella obeyed, her lips curving upward in a tentative smile. The corner of Jasper's mouth twitched in response, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he returned a sly, knowing smile.
