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.

"I'm going to ruin his life," Naomi muttered, looking on as the strange man returned to Scarlet's side. He didn't know who he had insulted and Naomi would have him apologising soon. "Where did she find him?"

"Find who?"

Naomi gritted her teeth upon hearing Preston's voice. "Why are you here now? You should have been here earlier to say something to the man who insulted me. You're always so slow."

"What man? Who insulted you?" Preston questioned, ready to defend her.

Naomi wasn't impressed by his eagerness as she knew he would say a few words and then call upon guards to deal with who had insulted her. Naomi knew not to expect much since Preston never had to raise his hand at anyone other than a servant but would it be so bad for him to use his hands to defend her just once?

Naomi had witnessed men with status quick to defend who they loved so why did Preston need to be one of the cowards?
