Labeled in Seattle — Mary Jane Forbes

Gillianne Wilder, twenty-three, has a dream of bursting onto the stage of the fashion design industry. Winning the Washington State design competition in Seattle confirms her talent. With a win in her column, she signs on as an intern in Paris, where the fashion industry began, to learn from the best of the best about fabrics, techniques, trends, and the business side of establishing her label. But her stay in Paris takes a turn when Maxime Beaumont sets his eyes on her sweeping her off her feet. What chance does a girl from the sticks of Washington have when a handsome, wealthy, Frenchman begins to court her? Beaumont turns her world upside down. Can she hold on to her dream or will she succumb to his wishes? And what about the boy back home in Seattle-Skip Hunter, newspaper reporter, frustrated mystery writer, who fell for the redhead? He fears he'll lose her in Paris when hearing about a Frenchman wheedling his way into her life. Now she's torn between two cities and two men. Love, revenge, lack of money-all thwart the young woman in her quest to fulfill her dream. Can she deal with a foreign city and a language barrier as she struggles as an intern? Can she muster the strength and drive to deal with a man stalking and threatening her, a man bent on revenge. And what about the Frenchman and a lesson of true love?
