Who Needs Paris? -- Joan Meyerson, Paperback

Who needs Paris? Certainly not Kate Miller. Ever since she was a student at the Sorbonne in the '60s, she's avoided Paris like the plague. But now it's 1977, and her life as a documentary filmmaker in Los Angeles is going nowhere. She's smart and clever, but dark memories of that youthful past have shut her down. When a French TV director offers her a job in Paris, she senses it may be her only chance to free herself of those memories. Kate reluctantly returns. What she finds is a Paris of promise, opportunity, and a delicious sexual reawakening. In her job at a film festival, a famous actor inspires her to play a character of her own ... and Kate begins to reinvent herself. Yet the past still haunts: In 1964, Kate was in Paris, in love ... and in trouble. After confronting the unthinkable, she has continued to live with a silent pain she kept secret for all these years. Will the darkness remain, or can Paris finally help bring Kate closure?

Who Needs Paris? is a story with humor, romance, and drama. But above all, it's a story about finding and fighting for the freedom to be our true selves.
