Scarlet Collins's life is flipped upside down after news of her divorce from her husband, Jack Humphrey, spreads around town. Despite her husband’s affairs being brought to light, Scarlet finds herself the topic of gossip as the town tries to find the answer to why Jack would leave the young heiress. 

Already burdened with having to take care of her family, Scarlet now finds herself being forced to listen to the many reasons why her marriage failed. Said to be a woman with a heart made of black ice, the people in town believed their opinions would not affect her so they had no reason to stop voicing them. 

During an afternoon out seeking peace, she finds herself starting an unlikely relationship with Lord Kingsley's bastard son, Ian Kingsley.

"Send her away before it comes time for Scarlet to leave. I don't care where you send her as long as she is not out there for Scarlet to see. I am in a good mood but I still think of disposing of her. I will kill her if I return and see her," said Ian.

Ian ignored Monica's tantrum outside. He had guards at the door for a reason so he didn't need to go take care of this matter. He had given Monica a warning and wasn't going to do it a second time. A second interaction called for Monica to stop breathing.

"I will send her off. Should I send her there if she doesn't comply? What of her father?" Owen asked. If he sent her to where he sent the people Ian wanted dead, there was no hope for Monica.

"I've warned him enough. Send her off and then take her where you cannot be seen doing it. She's going to create a mess. I can't have that now," Ian said.
