Secret Hearts #140

Secret Hearts #140 (On Sale: October 7, 1969) has a nicely done cover inked by Dick Giordano and penciled by, my guess is, Ric Estrada.

We begin with the 11-page "Half a Heart" by persons unknown. Doreen grew up loving Nelson, her older next-door neighbor, even though he never saw her in a romantic light. Doreen is devastated when he gets engaged to Elaine, but refuses to believe that she has lost him forever.

"I Stole His Love Away" by Jack Miller, John Celardo and Vinny Colletta. In this 7-pager, Leta fears that she has fallen in love with her mother's fiancé. Is it all a terrible misunderstanding?

We end with 8-pager "Lost in the Shadow of Love" which is penciled by John Rosenberger. Sheila is resigned to the fact that her friend Gloria will always attract the guys that Sheila likes.
