Dream Man!

9 pp · Romance

A lonely girl who dreams of romance with a perfect hero finds unexpected help from her childhood friend Jim—who transforms her from wallflower to the toast of the school, only to watch her fall for someone else. As Cynthia chases her idealized "Dream Man" through high school and toward college, she'll discover that the person who truly believed in her might have been the one she was looking for all along. Jim's quiet devotion and the girl's restless heart collide in this bittersweet portrait of growing up and learning what romance really means.

Two Girls and One Man!

8 pp · Romance

Two childhood friends from a small town share a New York apartment until one of them falls hard for an attractive man named Lex—only to discover that her roommate has already claimed him, and worse, that Lex's feelings may lie elsewhere. When a midnight confession tears the girls apart, Peggy finds herself caught between a love she can't deny and a friendship she's terrified to betray, with consequences neither of them could have imagined.

That Minton Girl!

4 pp · Romance

A wealthy young woman named Beth Minton gets caught in a storm while out picking wildflowers and seeks shelter at the cabin of Hugh Parsons, a struggling writer working on a story about New England poets. Stranded together as the rain pours down, Beth finds herself drawn to this man from a world entirely different from her own—one that challenges everything her privileged engagement to Chester Sloane has promised. What begins as an awkward intrusion becomes something neither of them expected.

Sandra, My Mortal Enemy!

7 pp · Romance

A timid florist with a fragile heart watches Dr. Chester March send flowers day after day to a woman named Sandra—a rival she's never met but has come to resent with growing intensity. When the doctor arrives at a Colorado sanitarium where the narrator is staying, a tentative romance begins to bloom between them, but a chance discovery threatens to shatter everything she's dared to hope for. This 1955 romance from Romantic Adventures reveals how the stories we tell ourselves about the people we envy can blind us to the truth.
