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.

Dora Wentworth is born out of wedlock in one of the poorest parts of Liverpool. Abandoned by her family, she is brought by God into the arms of a childless fisherman and his wife. But life is cruel, and when an accident prevents the fisherman from working, they are forced to give her up to the orphanage. As Dora grows, neglected and alone, she almost gives up on her dreams of one day having a home and a love she can call her own. Then, through the kindness of a stranger, Dora discovers that there is always hope and embarks on a path that might finally lead her to the family she has dreamed of.

Dinah Shaw has learned not to ask questions about what her mother, Ethel, does for a living. She spends her days trying to keep her younger brother, Ollie, entertained and safe in the tiny Whitechapel tenement where they live. There’s never enough food, and their ominous landlord threatens them continually with eviction. Ethel is gone for days on end - and Dinah’s life is one of hardship and loneliness.
The only bright spot in her world is Benjamin Morris, the boy who lives in the tenement next door. Somehow, Benjamin never seems to lose hope. But when eviction tears the Morris family away, Dinah’s world is catapulted into darkness. A long, terrible journey lies ahead, one of endless tribulation in Dinah’s constant quest to give Ollie a better future. And in order to do that, she’ll have to make a terrible choice. A choice that would mean Benjamin is lost to her forever....
