The Story:
Stella has been dating Bill (the guy in panel 2.) But, when he tries to take her for a ride, she breaks up with him.
Why? Because she’s still in love with her old beau—Denny.
Unaware that fickle Stella is once again in the mood for love (and sex?), Denny decides to leave town—for good.
Fortunately, Stella discovers that Denny is taking the next train out of town. And so…

A bouquet of roses is delivered…without a card.
Are the flowers from a secret admirer? A stalker with class? Or an incompetent florist?
The wife doesn’t care. She’s just glad that it’s making her hubby jealous!
And, if one bouquet makes him jealous, surely more will be even better.
So begins the tale of a wife who becomes her own “secret admirer” and sends herself roses every other day—just to drive her husband nuts.
The original art (right) is from First Kiss #20 (1961.)
