How do I handle line breaks in a CSV file using C#?

Question

I have an Excel spreadsheet being converted into a CSV file in C#, but am having a problem dealing with line breaks. For instance:

\"John\",\"23\",\"555-555

You might also check out my CSV parser SoftCircuits.CsvParser on NuGet. It will not only parse a CSV file but--if wanted--can also automatically map column values to your class properties. And it runs nearly four times faster than CsvHelper.
