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.

'Why did I allow her to convince me?" Scarlet wondered.

Scarlet couldn't understand why she was standing before Ian's place of business. She had no reason to meet with him today. He could be busy and not present as he had informed her of another business he had.

What was she to do if Ian was not present? She had sent the carriage back to her estate for Alana to be dropped off and then it was to come back here for her.

Scarlet wanted to hit herself. "I am a fool," she muttered.

This would only make Ian happy to have her visit him for no reason. The only positive side of this for Scarlet would be to see what he was doing when he wasn't expecting her. Perhaps she could catch him in the act of carrying out one of his plans for his return.

Scarlet walked toward the door which was opened for her by the two guards outside. As far as anyone was concerned, she came here because she wanted tea. Not for anything else.
