Denise Robins was an English writer of romance novels who was extremely popular in the early 20th century. She wrote over 100 novels in her lifetime, and was one of the first writers to be published by Mills & Boon. Love, Volume IX is a collection of five short stories that were originally published in magazines in the 1920s. The stories are all about different aspects of love, and how it can sometimes be difficult to find.
The first story, “Love in a Cottage”, is about a young woman who moves to the country to be with her new husband. She is not used to the simple life, and finds it hard to adjust. The second story, “Love and the Law”, is about a woman who is in love with a man who is already married. She has to decide whether to tell his wife about the affair, or to keep it a secret. The third story, “Love and Friendship”, is about two women who are best friends, but one of them is secretly in love with the other. The fourth story, “Love and Money”, is about a woman who is in love with a man who is very wealthy. She is afraid that he will only marry her for her money, and not for love. The fifth and final story, “Love and Hate”, is about a woman who is in love with a man who is also her enemy. She has to decide whether to fight him or to give in to her feelings.
All of the stories in Love, Volume IX are about the different aspects of love, and how it can be both a blessing and a curse. Denise Robins was a master of creating characters that were both real and relatable, and her stories are still just as relevant today as they were when they were first written. If you’re looking for a collection of short stories that will make you think about love in a new way, then this is the book for you.
