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.

Scarlet bit her tongue to not her words come out as it would quickly turn the conversation sour. Ian had been respectful with her parents so she was trying not to be rude with Ivy but Ivy was pushing her to say what was on her mind.

Ivy sat back down so they could talk right where they were now. "I think you make quite the match for my son. He will be the next Lord Kingsley and with your background, you will be suited to be with his wife. I will not bother the two of you. I plan to move elsewhere when the time is right."

"Ian and I haven't spoken much about marriage so I would like you not to get ahead of yourself. We plan to take our relationship slowly to learn more about each other. He would tell you this if you went to meet with him first," said Scarlet.
