Carol sees a shabby but handsome young man, Ware Renwick, gazing hungrily at a grocery store window and impulsively offers him a meal and a job—only to find herself caught between genuine gratitude and growing affection for him, and an unexpected attraction to Tony Trahern, the sophisticated son of the store's owner. As Carol struggles with conflicting feelings and the promise she's made to Ware, she must decide what loyalty truly means and where her heart really lies.
