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 could have done that for you when I came back," Ian said, watching as Scarlet poured something into the water.

"I didn't know how soon you would be back. Did you find the person already?" Scarlet asked, looking away from the water to Ian.

"I did not. Your guard Dawson said he would take care of it so I should return to your side. The fire is out and it was only the smoke that you saw. Let me," Ian said, wanting to run the bath for her so she could get in. "I will go after you."

"It isn't for me. It is for you," Scarlet replied.

His bath time was disturbed so she thought to prepare it for him in his absence.

"My estate being on fire has ruined my mood and I don't think you can put me back. You don't have to sleep with me all night as if I will disappear tomorrow. Wash up first so we can eat and then go to bed," Scarlet said, standing up as she was done with her part.
