Story
As a parlor maid, Blanche Eplett is invisible to everyone in her life…except for Ludwig Turner, the rakishly handsome master of the house. When Ludwig’s interest in Blanche becomes something more amorous, she finds herself pregnant with his child and soon gives birth to a little girl named May. At first, Ludwig is there to care for them both. But when tragedy strikes, Blanche and May are thrown out onto the streets. Blanche will do anything to care for May and to protect the child’s kind and loving heart—a heart soon enamored by a fellow street urchin named Taylor Harris.
