An anthology issue featuring multiple romance stories. "Not the Marrying Kind" tells of twin sisters Jane and Margaret whose opposite personalities—one caring and selfless, the other vain and cruel—shape their romantic destinies, with Margaret eventually learning humility through hardship while Jane finds happiness with her devoted husband Arthur. Another story follows a woman named Peg who, despite suffering disfigurement in an accident, finds redemption and love with Paul, an advertising executive, after he looks past her scars to see her true character. A third story depicts a man named Ace who wins a woman's heart at a dance hall, and they plan a trip to Bermuda together, with Ace ultimately proving his devotion by using money meant for the vacation to pay for his mother's medical operation.

In "Not the Marrying Kind!", the sharp contrast between twin sisters Jane and Margaret [Peg] comes to a head when Peg’s schemes collide with the life of Major Arthur Drake. While Jane, now an army nurse, finds unexpected kindness in Arthur’s care after a car accident, Peg—ever the manipulator—plots to destroy his career. But when Arthur saves Jane’s life, a quiet shift begins, challenging Peg’s long-held ways. As old rivalries and hidden feelings surface, the path to change is anything but simple.
