Seven years ago, Vera lost the man she loved and was left to believe Allen abandoned her for wealth, all while she was fighting heart failure. What she never knew is that Allen secretly saved her by giving her his own heart, then survived with a fragile artificial one built to last only seven years. Now the roles have reversed: Vera is a powerful heiress, and Allen is poor, sick, and running out of time. When they meet again, her resentment turns into public humiliation, even as his secret lives on inside her. Little by little, the truth comes out, and Vera discovers the betrayal she blamed him for was never his at all. But with Allen’s time nearly gone, she must face a choice that could break her all over again.
