This anthology issue contains multiple true-life romance stories. The front-page story "I Ran Wild" follows a young woman whose father warns her against marrying a golf pro named Don Lowell; she elopes with him anyway, but their life of traveling and competing in golf tournaments leaves her unfulfilled, leading her to seek a stable home and eventually confess her desire to settle down. Another story depicts a woman named Toby who struggles between a rough, free-spirited man from her past and her current refined life, ultimately choosing stability. A third story features a radio announcer named Pat Saunders whose boss attempts to romance her, but Pat resists, eventually falling in love with Pat's seemingly perfect life instead of pursuing an actual relationship with him.
