Romantic Secrets #5

This anthology issue contains a "Romance Oddities" feature presenting brief historical and cultural vignettes about courtship customs, including practices among American Indians, the origin of the bridal veil as protection against evil eye, and the significance of blue stones and four-leaf clovers in romance. The main story, "The Moment I Saw You," follows Janet Berman, who must choose between fighting honestly for her relationship with Bob or taking an easier path; she ultimately chooses the harder way, leading to heartbreak when Bob leaves her. A separate story, "Last Stop—My Heart," depicts a woman working in a dreary office who fantasizes about the glamorous construction workers on a bridge, eventually meeting someone who whisks her away, though the narrative suggests this romantic escape comes too late to truly blend with genuine emotion.
