Gutter Love

Can two damaged people love one another? Meet Anastasia, a young woman raped by her father and turned on to the unforgiving Chicago streets into the world’s oldest profession. All she has in the world is her baby girl, and a mother that turned a blind eye to the abuse. When she can take no more, she runs away with little money and her daughter in her arms.

Milton, or “Gutter” as he’s known in the streets, is a mercenary, drug dealer, boss of a small clique of other damaged souls that he calls family. While moving about in back alleys and darkness in order to kill a man, he runs into the fleeing Anastasia and her child.

Milton recognizes her as another damaged soul. He sees more in Anastasia than she sees in herself. Most would see a scared young woman. Milton sees a kindred soul—a survivor. This is an Urban Love story about two damaged souls that find one another.
