Youthful Romances #12

An anthology of romantic confessions tied to entertainment industry figures, the issue features "I Was a Washington Secretary," in which a young woman who moves to Washington D.C. falls in love with a man named Jim only to have her heart broken when she discovers he is involved in criminal activities and must choose between love and duty. Another story, "Racketeer's Daughter," depicts a woman caught between her father's criminal underworld connections and her own desires for a legitimate life, as her father's political ambitions threaten to expose the organized crime that surrounds her family. A third story shows a young couple, Lefty and Debra, who fall in love at a baseball game and discover genuine connection before parting ways.
