We Married in Haste
10 pp · romance; war

A young woman engaged to a Navy man finds herself caught between loyalty and longing when he returns from sea duty—just as a charming lieutenant finally asks her out. When a misunderstanding sends both her fiancé and herself into the arms of other people, she impulsively agrees to run away with the lieutenant, setting in motion a chain of events that will test everything she thought she knew about love and commitment. Written with the passionate tangles that made 1953 romance comics so addictive, "We Married in Haste" asks whether following your heart means abandoning your promises.

When Things Get Rough
7 pp · Romance; War

Mike and Joan's struggling marriage faces its roughest test yet when a charming drifter named Roger arrives in Los Angeles, offering Joan the excitement and attention her worn-down husband can't provide. As Joan begins seeing Roger in secret, keeping money from their household savings and sneaking time away, she convinces herself the thrill is worth the cost—but when Mike catches wind of her changed behavior, the gap between them widens into something neither expected. The question becomes whether Joan will wake up to what she's risking before the choices she's made tear her marriage apart completely.

His Fraternity Pin
12 pp · romance; war

A Red Cross nurse in Korea finds herself drawn into a tragedy at the battlefield when a wounded lieutenant arrives at her field hospital—a man whose connection to her runs back three years to a college campus romance that began at an American university. As the nurse grieves over his fate, she reflects on how two Korean exchange students, Lee Pon and Kim Wang, fell in love amid the challenges of belonging in a new country, their bond tested by prejudice and a fraternity pin that symbolized so much more than tradition. Her devotion to saving him now raises troubling questions about where her heart truly lies, and what sacrifice she was willing to make.
