Jean Prouvaire had always been a slightly awkward, timid boy. He wrote poetry, loved flowers, and had a soft way about him. This wasn't a problem until it came to women. Due to his shyness, he lost the one woman he loved and grew to dislike girls. But when his friends at the Café Musain start to give him trouble about this, he knows something must change. A shady stranger offers to fix Jehan's problem and thrusts him into the darker side of Paris young Prouvaire never imagined venturing into when just by chance, he comes across the stunningly beautiful, yet troubled Margot Marseilles, a dirt-poor girl who had sunk to the very bottom of society and carries a lot of emotional baggage. When he hears about her situation, he takes her in and starts to recover the happy, smiling Margot that had been lost long ago. However, with things in the revolution heating up, and Prouvaire's life as a member of les Amis de l'ABC getting harder and harder, he is forced to choose between the life that he wants or the life that could be.
