WOODBINE, Md., April 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Angela Briann Scott is startled at the sight of the most exquisite-looking man she's ever seen, peering at her from the woods beside her home in California. Over time, Ross Leigh Stafford becomes her saving grace, her mentor, and teaches her to believe in herself again. He offers her the strength and incentive to finally escape from her abusive husband, Mitchell Scott, an influential, high-dollar architect.

If only Ross and she could ride off together into the sunset on his borrowed white stallion right then. That would paint the happy ending to their lovely story, but this is not life's reality.

In "Explosion in Paris" (published by iUniverse), Linda Pirrung tells the story of Angie and Ross, whose love, first denied, eventually blossoms and survives -- along with Angie -- Mitch's explosive rage. It's also about the faithfulness of Ross, who mourns her apparent death. Will Angie's messages to Ross, apparently from the grave, get through to him? Will Mitch admit to his murderous ways? This romance/suspense/adventure delights readers with page-turning drama and an overarching message that sometimes we must die so that we truly can live.
