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.

"Ian, I must go home. I've stayed longer than I should have and I do not want to disturb you. So please, let go," Scarlet said, raising their hands. They had been like this for a few minutes now and after allowing it at first, Scarlet was ready to put some space between them.

"I will take you home," Ian replied, keeping his hold on Scarlet's hand. "Just give me a few minutes."

"You do not need to take me home. My ride home should be outside. You have work to do," Scarlet said, secretly trying to slip her hand away from his. "I will see you another day."

"I don't have any more work to do after this. I'll leave everything else to Owen so just wait for me. Stop trying to run away," Ian said, tightening his hold on her hand. "It wouldn't be a good look for me to just send you off."
