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 bit his lip, trying not to laugh now at how Scarlet wasn't happy to hear that all she had to do was show up. "Is it hurting you inside to not be in control of what we do with the trip?"

"It was my idea to go on a trip and you have taken it over. You should at least tell me where we are going and how many of my guards I will need to accompany us. Why are you laughing?" Scarlet asked yet to find the joke.

Ian slipped his right hand from her hold and placed it on her lower back. "Because you mentioned guards. We won't be taking anyone with us. It is a trip for us to be alone."

"And we will be. My guards will not disturb us. Even though we might be away from the busy part of Lockwood, I still need my guards as there is always danger. Do you already have guards where we are going?" Scarlet questioned, wanting Ian to slip and let her know more about the place.
