Love in Paris? To be loved is hard (7)
I believe the answer is:
cherish
'love in paris?' is the definition.
'cherish' can be an answer for 'love' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'in paris?' bit.
'loved is hard' is the wordplay.
'loved' becomes 'cher' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'hard' becomes 'h' (abbreviation used in pencil classifications).
'cher'+'is'+'h'='CHERISH'
'to be' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cherish that I've seen before include "Hold dear, treasure" , "Nurse" , "Hold dear, value greatly" , "Hold dear -- he's rich (anag)" , "Hold dear, keep in one's heart" .)
