Sweethearts #87

This anthology issue contains four romance stories. "The Haunting Illusion" follows Mavis, a woman who romanticizes medieval knights, as she becomes intrigued by a young man missing for months whose room she rents; her fiancé Danny grows jealous during an outing when her thoughts drift to the mysterious tenant, leading to tension between them. A second story depicts a woman at Danny's Garage who must manage increasing business alone, prompting Danny to visit; she decides to leave him, but Danny arrives with unexpected news that changes her mind. "Love's Dream" shows two women discussing a third woman named Vera who they believe is putting on airs and pretending to be someone she is not, eventually leading them to attempt to prove their suspicions by investigating her living situation. The final story, "Pitfall," involves a woman named Judith who drops her purse deliberately and later retrieves money and valuables from her apartment, suggesting involvement in some scheme.
