Romance Suspense

Less than twenty-four hours after fleeing to Paris, Maya Sinclair is the prime suspect in a brutal murder-and targeted by the real killer. When she's viciously attacked in the gardens of Versailles, Maya barely escapes with her life thanks to sexy French journalist Simon Girard.

Simon has been investigating the mysterious death of his brother, an art forger with ties to the woman Maya is suspected of killing. Still healing from heartbreak of his own, Simon reluctantly joins forces with Maya, who has awakened feelings within him he thought long dead.

Their search for answers uncovers the existence of a secret society, and puts them on a quest to find a missing crucifix rumored to hold the key to everlasting life. Together, Maya and Simon race through Paris one step ahead of a killer who will do anything to ensure some secrets remain buried forever...

Re: The Paris Secret

Librarians are my favorite kind of people. Book lovers.

My son got this degree with his masters. I buy books for his new baby with him in mind. He LOVES reading them to her! Super good dad!

I was asked to volunteer my time once a week to help teach a class at our local library. Being a newcomer to the area, I was a bit surprised, but agreed. It turned out to be a good move for me, as well as for them. Not only have I made a lot of great friends, but I have gotten to know the librarians a lot better, and we have become quite close. They certainly aren't the stick-in-the-mud women that I grew up with!! They're a great group of women that do a lot of good in the community!! They're also a lot smarter than they let on.

I can't decide. Giles, the fab librarian and mentor, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Marian (I know but she's different), the keeper of all knowledge paranormal, in the Castor Girls Series from Margaret Stohl and Kami Garcia. Both have so much depth--they always surprise.

I liked Daisy Minor, the librarian heroine in Linda Howard's "Open Season". A good suspense and a good laugh all in one.

Lilith Saintcrow did a book "The Demon's Librarian" for those who would like a urban fantasy type librarian heroine. She's one of my favorites.

I love this concept! Because I'm a book lover I've always thought highly of librarians.

Book librarian is Henry from The Time Traveler's Wife. TV librarian is Giles from Buffy.

Where I live there is a branch of our town library on our block. Over the years
here I have seen the reality of the change in librarians as we know them
today.
We started with a "shush type with no bun" to a fun loving young woman with
a great knowledge of today's books. She exchanges book recommendations
with her patrons and knows them well enough to be dead-on. All the
neighborhood children love her and call her by her first name and she draws a
phenomenal job with story hour leaving them begging for more. That's a
LIBRARIAN!!!!!!

Favorite fictional librarian? Evy and Giles would be in a pretty close race. Seemingly shy bookworms who can really be tough when needed, who wouldn't want to be either one of them. Besides, Brendan Fraser from that time period, and David Boreanaz, do I need to say more?

My favorite librarian is one at our local library. She's young, attractive and very knowledgable. I have had occations to deal with her many times...from when I needed help to when I was donating books to the library. She is always smiling and cheerful.

Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs (Jane Jameson, Book 1) by Molly
Harper--absolutely the funniest take on a poor librarian.
When Jane's atrocious boss fires her and she goes off on a
bender she thinks her life couldn't get worse messed up.
However when a drunk mistakes her for a deer, shots her and
she gets changed into a vampire, she realizes how easy her
"life" used to be.

My favorite librarian is a bookseller at Appletree Books in Cleveland Hts, OH, who recommended a kids book, Catch Me and Kiss Me and Say It Again, that became dog-earred from reading it so often. I can still recall the non-sensical British humor and the way my kids liked the rhymes and beats.
