School-Day Romances #4

Midge Martin, a girl reporter for the City Press, scores a front-row seat to Glenview High's all-male beauty contest at the pool—but her assignment gets complicated when charming Bill Crane sweeps her off her feet and promises to make her his queen if he wins. When Midge overhears Bill's true scheme and discovers she's actually the secret judge of the contest, she has to decide whether to let her feelings cloud her verdict or keep her integrity intact.

Eve Adams pauses during her archaeological studies in Egypt to accept a dinner invitation to Professor Elli-Bay's desert retreat—only to find herself paired off with his son, Ben-Bay, a fellow student who'd rather discuss ancient hieroglyphics than romance. When Ben proves utterly immune to her charms, Eve makes a desperate (and misguided) decision to slip her aunt's mysterious "Instant Incense" into the evening, triggering a chaotic chain of accidents involving fire departments, confused veterinarians, and very determined camels. By the time the smoke clears, Eve discovers that sometimes the best-laid plans for romance need the most unexpected rescue.
