Heart of Paris — Denise Robins

Nineteen year old beautiful Annabel Graye is suddenly left penniless in Paris when financial disaster overtakes her rich father. Fortunately, she is offered a job at the world's most famous couturier, Maison Christophe. Then she'd caught the eye of the renowned fashion designer, the handsome and dashing Christropher Brande, who asked her to model the most beautiful clothes she'd ever seen! The last few weeks had been a whirlwind of breathless excitement for Annabel. Her beauty and elegance make her easily the top mannequin. Suddenly, the heart of Paris is captivated by her and apparently none more madly than fascinating Christopher himself. Also Annabel was consumed by a passion she'd never known--a love so intense that she could hardly bear to be alone with Christopher. For she could see in his eyes that her passion was returned... even though he was engaged to marry to another. His fiancée was the wealthy influential Michele Luchacre and she is determined to hold on to him. Seeing that Annabel is taking her place in his heart, Michele, with the assistance of gypsy model Guida, hatches a seemingly infallible plot to discredit Annabel ? and the English girl falls right into the trap.
