The novel romance involves two natural enemies—a tempestuous Park Avenue beauty and a defiant. Greenwich Village artist. The girl has promised to aid her wealthy father secure custody of his two orphan grandchildren who live with their uncle and legal guardian, a youth with a precarious income. Upon this premise are built the story’s dramatic and laughprovoking situations, chief of which is the love affair between Milland and Miss Hopkins.
