This anthology issue presents four romantic and cautionary tales for teens. "I Was a Cheat" depicts a girl's regret after betraying her boyfriend's trust at a school dance. "Stolen Love" shows a couple's passionate romance under the stars, though ending with heartbreak. "Bad Girl" warns of the consequences of promiscuous behavior, while "The Forbidden Subject" addresses taboo teenage romance. The issue also includes "Canteen Corner," an advice column by Dr. Harold Gluck addressing teen problems, featuring a letter from Sam P. about convincing his father to allow him to buy a used car.

Contains 5 stories
The Forbidden Subject
5 pp · Romance

A young woman raised to view men with deep suspicion arrives at an upstate farm for summer vacation, where a veterinary student named Mark shows her the natural cycles of life among the animals—and in doing so, gently challenges everything she's been taught about love and relationships. As Helen's prejudices begin to soften, she discovers that her fears were built on shame rather than truth, and that genuine affection between two people can be something beautiful and clean.

Bad Girl
5 pp · Romance

Milly Byron loves being the life of the party, but her carefree attitude earns her a reputation she didn't ask for—whispers and gossip that follow her through school. When she meets Dennis Kane, a new student, she feels a genuine connection, but his belief in the rumors about her threatens everything, forcing Milly to confront how careless talk can wound the people you care about most.

Stolen Love
7 pp · Romance

A high school girl named Bess falls deeply in love with Tom Archer and, terrified of losing him, convinces him to marry her in secret across the state line—a decision that spirals into worry, guilt, and dangerous rumors when their secret is discovered. As scandal threatens to consume them both, Bess learns a hard lesson about the cost of stolen love and the impossible weight of keeping such a life-changing secret.

I Was a Cheat
7 pp · Romance

A girl who loves the party scene discovers that cramming fun into every night means skipping her homework—so when exams loom, she accepts answer sheets from classmates to keep up appearances. But when her cheating catches up with her and she's expelled, the boy she's fallen for sees her dishonesty as a character flaw he can't overlook, leaving Janet to wonder if she can ever rebuild the trust she's lost.

He's Not for Me!
5 pp · Romance

A young woman misjudges the wealthy, brilliant Gordie Wayne as a snob, only to discover he's genuinely kind when he sweeps her off her feet at a party—but his unexpected plans threaten their budding romance before it's truly begun. As Tina grapples with her feelings and Gordie pursues his ambitious future, both must confront what they're willing to sacrifice for love.
