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.

Ian smiled as he was thinking of doing it without Scarlet telling him. He was ready for when the gates would open completely for them to go through. He almost wanted to reach over to cover Scarlet's eyes so she wouldn't have to witness the ugly mess that would be Jake's death.

Jack tried to get around the guards as the gates opened. "Scarlet- You!" He yelled, jumping out of the way before he could be hit. That bastard with her was crazy for getting so close to hitting him. "I'm going to kill that bastard."

Jack smacked away the hand offered to him by his driver. It was already pathetic that he had to jump to save his life. Did his driver want to have him look more pitiful by accepting his hand? "Get out of the way and follow them," he ordered the driver.

Scarlet couldn't be going anywhere good with Ian at this time.
