Lucy's father abandoned her in London, leaving her alone and with no money. After she had sold just about everything saleable, she took to playing the violin in the street to pay for rent and food. Her only friend is a street boy called Fitch. She was raised as a young lady, but it appears that her only future is as a whore. James Remington (Earl of Cambourne) was searching for her father about a gambling debt, and when he realized the fix she was in, began to pursue her for his own reasons.

A very good look at what absolute poverty is like and the trapped feeling that no money brings. Features an intense and believable relationship between hero and heroine. I enjoyed it.
