Star Love Stories #172

"Fascinatin' Stranger" in Star Love Stories #172 (1966) introduces a quiet, windswept romance set on a Yorkshire farm, where Carol’s simple life shifts when a mysterious stranger seeks shelter in her father’s barn. Drawn together by shared work and quiet glances, the newcomer’s guarded nature only deepens the mystery, leaving Carol caught between curiosity and the pull of the unknown. The story’s gentle tension is brought to life by Richard Neillands’ expressive art, while Manfred Sommer’s cover captures the story’s evocative mood with a striking, moody portrait of the stranger under a starlit sky.
