Mystique was a Harlequin imprint which was published from August 1977 to February 1982. The series was mainly romantic suspense, usually (though not always) by international authors set in foreign locales. Most of these novels seem to have first been published in France under the publishing house Librairie Jules Tallandier under a line called Romanesque Circle. The Mystique logo of the Eiffel Tower behind the French flag may be a nod to this as is the name Mystique itself.
These are easy to identify by the covers which all feature a closeup of our heroine and then around her in a sort of collage are major elements and characters from the novel. Take for example the cover of Loss of Innocence by Magali - we have a close up of Claire and then around her we have her husband, the sports car that caused so much grief, a polar bear from her husband's arctic adventure and a dancing couple which is Claire and the Prince.
