"Wrong Kind of Kisses" follows a woman who has worked in a small-town mail-order business and longs to meet someone, only to fall for a man who later moves away, leaving her with heartache.

The issue also includes additional untitled stories and a "Dear Miss Martin" advice column addressing readers' romantic dilemmas.
Grace Scott has long dreamed of a refined gentleman boss, but when the rough-and-tumble Hank Wilson from the shipping room asks her to help polish his manners, she reluctantly agrees—only to find herself torn between the cultured Milton Regent and the real, unpolished man who's genuinely trying to change for her sake. As Grace spends time with both men, she begins to discover what love really means beneath all the social graces and grand gestures.
A young bride discovers her romantic dreams about married life clash sharply with the reality her new husband expects—and she must choose between the fantasy she imagined and the woman she needs to become. As Suzy struggles to balance her notions of luxury and fun with Jeff's practical values, their honeymoon bliss quickly gives way to conflict that threatens to tear them apart. With her mother's tough love as her guide, Suzy faces a reckoning about what it truly means to be a wife.
A lonely city girl escapes her dreary routine with a visit to her old schoolmate in Texas, only to find herself dangerously drawn to her friend's charming husband. As stolen moments under starlight deepen into passionate secret meetings, our heroine must confront the impossible choice between her heart's desire and the friendship—and life—she's about to destroy. "Wrong Kind of Kisses" explores what happens when love arrives wearing the wrong face, and a woman discovers that some attractions come at a cost far greater than she ever imagined.
Sherry Roy claws her way up the fashion journalism ladder with single-minded determination, using her connection to designer Charles and a dangerous attraction to her married superior Francis to chase the top fashion editor job—but the higher she climbs, the more she sacrifices along the way. As Miss Edison warns her, success has a steep price, and Sherry's ruthlessness and ambition leave a trail of hurt people in their wake. When an unexpected visitor from her past shows up, she's forced to confront just how hollow her hard-won victory has become.
