Best Romance #5

This anthology issue contains at least two stories. "Diamond Lore" presents ancient legends about a diamond linked to Venus, told through mythological vignettes about how the gem symbolizes love across cultures. "Say You Love Me" follows Joyce Carver, who breaks up with her boyfriend Steve Raney to date the shy and awkward Brodie Bower, but soon realizes Steve truly loves her when he confronts her; after Brodie finally expresses his love through action rather than words, Joyce learns that sometimes actions speak louder than verbal declarations of affection.
