The Resilient Lady Collins

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.

"As fun as it would be for me to toss something with your face into a fire, I don't want to sit for a portrait today. This is my gift to you," Scarlet said.

"Scared?" Ian teased. "I didn't think a Collins would be so scared."

Scarlet bit her tongue. She was not scared that he would still be in her life a year from now. It was just weird to have to sit for a portrait with a man she was not in a real relationship with. "Collins are not scared. Well, at least the ones that I like."

"Yet you are quick to run away from an easy challenge. Admit it, you think I will still be here when a year goes by. I won't tell anyone about it. What is there to fear when you will have the portrait?" Ian asked, refusing to let the day end without Scarlet in a portrait beside him.
