Girls' Romances #154

Girls' Romances #154 (On Sale: November 24, 1970), has a cover by Nick Cardy.

We begin with "The Girl Who Gave Her Love Away" drawn by Werner Roth and Bill Draut. Freshman Sandy is ecstatic when senior Allan takes an interest in her, but her friends all warn her about his reputation as a lady-killer. Sure enough, he soon breaks up with her, claiming to be engaged to a girl at another college, but then he returns and admits he lied, and that he's really in love with Sandy this time.

Next is an untitled Betty's  Boutique story drawn by George Tuska and Vince Colletta. Betty models several new outfits for two customers, but she mistakes which one is really doing the shopping.

That is followed by "A Kiss from a Stranger" drawn by Arthur Peddy and Bernard Sachs and reprinted from Girls' Romances #81 (1962). A guy meets a girl on the beach and they share a romantic moment, but she runs away. Unable to forget her, he tracks her down again and she admits that she was engaged, but broke it off after she met him and hoped to find him again.

Next is an activity page, "Sew Here's How!"  by Liz Berube.

We end with our cover story, "Part-Time Lover" drawn by Artie Saaf and Frank Giacoia. Randy is bored with her boyfriend Chuck so she dumps him when she meets Myles, who takes an immediate interest in her. But when Myles turns out to be married, Chuck is still waiting to take her back.
