Romantic Story #89

"Love Passed Me By" follows a woman on vacation who realizes the trip is a mistake, concluding that the aura of love and romance is everywhere but not for her. A second story depicts a woman in a yellow jacket involved in a car accident where a man is killed; she confesses to him, and later visits him in the hospital where he forgives her, suggesting they can overcome their guilt together. The issue also includes a "Just Jeannette" advice column featuring Jeannette Copeland responding to a letter from a sixteen-year-old adopted girl questioning whether to reveal her adoption status to her parents. Additionally, the visible pages show a third story involving island romance, where a character named Maggie meets Russel Mende on a tropical island for an evening, participating in a luau where she becomes a chosen sacrifice in a ceremonial dance.
