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.

The Resilient Lady Collins

Scarlet looked out the window at her grandparents and Alana taking a walk through the garden. As always, her grandmother somehow managed to make everyone forget their troubles and have fun as playing was still always on her mind.

Her grandmother came at the right time to offer Alana advice and for her to take a break from work.

"Florence, have something warm for them to drink as soon as they come back inside. Outside it is getting colder by the day. =When will the new coats for Alana arrive?" Scarlet questioned, turning to Florence.

"They should be arriving soon as well as the one meant for you. The dressmaker wishes to visit. The princess needs a few dresses so it would be good to invite the dressmaker. Winter brings plenty of balls just like the start of spring," said Florence.
