Heart Throbs #27
Heart Throbs #27 This anthology issue contains two romantic stories. "She Stole My Man" depicts a woman who accuses another of stealing her boyfriend Johnny, claiming the rival is only interested in him for his destined success, while she loves him for who he truly is. "Which One For Me?" follows Sharon, a woman torn between two suitors: Paul, an ambitious newspaper editor with whom she made a promise to wait a year before marrying, and Freddie, a charming but directionless man she meets at a dance. After initially falling for Freddie and breaking her promise to Paul, Sharon becomes suspicious of Freddie's true intentions regarding his coworker Alma and ultimately realizes that Johnny's steady nature and professional ambitions make him the better choice for her future.
