Contains 4 stories
Our Mistake
7 pp · Romance

A young woman in love with a boy named Steve faces her parents' firm refusal to let her marry before finishing school—the same sacrifice they made years ago when they wed during wartime. When her parents unexpectedly have a change of heart about their own rushed marriage, they must decide whether to share that shift with their daughter before it's too late.

One-Sided Love
3 pp · Romance

A young woman finds herself trapped in an unhappy romance with Don Corey, the handsomest boy at Barton High, who takes her devotion for granted and treats her poorly. After she finally breaks things off with him, Sean O'Hara offers her a chance at something different—a relationship built on genuine care rather than one-sided longing. Will this new connection be the happiness she's been searching for?

She Loved My Man
5 pp · Romance

A young woman watches helplessly as her best friend—and next-door neighbor—falls in love with her husband, Tim. When Cara finally discovers the depth of Dawn's feelings, she hatches an unexpected plan to redirect her friend's affections toward someone new, someone who might actually return them. A touching 1961 romance about friendship, sacrifice, and the surprising ways love can work itself out.

Return To The Past
8 pp · Romance

A widow named Karen has withdrawn from life, finding solace only in memories of her husband Alan and their brief marriage before his tragic death. When an injured stranger named Lance Cort is brought into her home to recover, Karen begins to emerge from her grief—but as she grows closer to him, she must confront what it means to open her heart to the present again.
