Pero ang totoo, virgin pa siya. Iyon ang unang beses niya at handa siyang ibigay iyon, ganun siya kadesperada. Pagkatapos ng mainit na tagpong ‘yon, hindi na muling nagpakita ang lalaki.

Maya Jenkins has built a life on her own terms. After being abandoned by her father at a young age and betrayed by a man she once loved, Maya has little faith in the concept of true love. But one lonely Saturday night, against her usual instincts, she downloads SoulLink—a new dating app designed to match people based on more than just physical attraction. When she matches with a man named “Ash,” she starts to wonder if she’s been too quick to write off the possibility of something real. Asher Reed is no stranger to living behind a mask. By day, he is the powerful CEO of NovaSpire, the cutting-edge tech company he inherited from his demanding father. By night, he sheds his corporate persona and anonymously tests SoulLink, a product his company has developed. What he doesn’t expect is Maya—a woman who challenges him with her passionate and authentic personality. For the first time in years, he feels seen—not as the CEO or the broken man his ex-fiancée left behind, but as himself. As their connection deepens, so does their vulnerability. Maya’s long-standing trust issues clash with Asher’s secret identity, and their growing bond is threatened by the arrival of past figures— Asher’s manipulative former fiancée. With each revelation, the digital space where they first met becomes a battleground for truth, betrayal, and the complicated pull of their emotions. In a world where identities can be easily manipulated and love is often elusive, Maya and Asher must confront their pasts, their fears, and the choices that will either bind them together or tear them apart. Can they overcome the ghosts of their history and the secrets they’ve kept from each other? Or will their insecurities and unresolved scars lead them down separate paths?

But secrets from the past, powerful enemies, and a marriage built on lies threaten to tear them apart. Can a woman who fears nothing melt the heart of a man who feels nothing? Or will loving the cold billionaire become the biggest mistake of her life? ............. He lowered his gaze and stared at her trembling fingers wrapped around his sleeve.

For the first time, the cold billionaire smiled. "Because despite everything, you're the one thing I can't seem to resist."
