  1. Valentine Princess - When you’re Princess Mia, nothing happens the way it’s supposed to. For one thing, Grandmere seems determined to prove that boy (or Michael, as he is commonly known) isn’t the right one for the crown princess of Genovia. And Mia isn’t having much luck proving otherwise, since Michael has a history of being decidedly against any kind of exploitative commercialization (Valentine’s Day, as it is commonly known).Boris can declare his love openly to Lilly, and even Kenny comes through with a paltry Whitman’s Sampler. So why can’t Michael give in to Cupid and tell Mia he loves her — preferably with something wrapped in red or pink and accompanied by roses — in time to prove he’s Mia’s true prince?
  2. A Catered Valentine’s Day - Cupid couldn’t be any busier than caterers Bernadette and Libby Simmons on Valentine’s Day. This year, a fund-raiser is taking up a lot of their time. And though love is in the air, so is murder… Bernie and Libby, owners of A Taste of Heaven, have plans to partner up with the Just Chocolate store for a taste-tempting Valentine’s Day fundraiser featuring pairings of exotic chocolates, food, and wine, as well as a kissing booth, a fashion show, and a bachelor auction. And though Bernie isn’t too happy about her boyfriend volunteering to be auctioned off, she’s got too much on her plate to be jealous: one of the coolers is leaking; they need a new butter supplier, employees have relationship issues, and the mother of a very good client has died. Putting their preparations on hold, Bernie and Libby attend the funeral, only to be recruited to help solve a mystery. In an old cemetery-turned-lover’s-lane, the body of Ted Gorman has been found in someone else’s grave. The same Ted Gorman who supposedly died in a fiery car crash weeks earlier, leaving his body nearly unrecognizable. But though Libby and Bernie can easily tell that it’s him, Libby knows there’s something “off” about the body, though she can’t put her finger on it. Ted was the owner-with his wife-of Just Chocolate. So now, as Bernie and Libby continue working with the grieving widow, they open up a mixed box of dark financial scandal, sticky family ties, bittersweet passion, and just desserts. And the chocolate-covered clues will lead to someone with blood on their hands_ A CATERED CHRISTMAS “Comical minor arguments, bitchy asides, cookie dependencies, and useful recipes keep this moving.” -Library Journal “Quirky and fun_Not only is the mystery entertaining, it comes complete with mouth-watering recipes.” -Romantic Times A CATERED WEDDING “The sisters’ playful rivalry, clever dialogue and an eccentric supporting cast make for plenty of cozy fun.” -Publishers Weekly “Frequent humor, a couple of little-old-lady Marxists, and several delicious recipes complete the cozy picture.

  3. Everything She Wants - “In the second book of Beth Killian’s juicy 310 series, Hollywood newcomer Eva Cordes starts to unravel her family’s dark secrets — and creates some scandals of her own. Aspiring actress Eva feels like she’s finally on her way to the big time — she’s got new friends, a new life, and a starring role in a hot new commercial. And with Valentine’s Day fast approaching, she’s determined to finally “”seal the deal”" with her new boyfriend, Danny. But all her plans turn inside out when someone from her past shows up at her doorstep — with an engagement ring!?! Eva swears the only guy she wants to be with is Danny, but he’s starting to have doubts. So when she finds out the shocking truth about her father’s identity, she has no one to turn to — the guys are at each other’s throats and her roommates are having a major catfight of their own. Eva is about to make some tough choices…and if she’s not careful, she may make the biggest mistake of her life. “
  4. Valentine’s Day Is Killing Me - Lost roses. Cancelled reservations. Broken dates. Dead bodies. There’s always some reason to hate Valentine’s Day-until the scene of the crime starts heating up… From three of today’s hottest authors, each with a wicked flair for the unexpected, comes a delectable serving of romantic tales gone bad_then even badder. A woman whose blind date shows up cuffed to a dead body only leads to uncovering a lot more than mystery. A party featuring dangerously naughty favors brings the cops a knocking-and not just on the door. And the overworked employee with a dead boss and an ex-boyfriend who happens to be the most insensitive, non-romantic, completely irresistible alpha male she’s ever laid-ahem-eyes on… Romance, drama, suspense, humor, desire-the perfect date for a night with… MARYJANICE DAVIDSON LESLIE ESDAILE SUSANNA CARR Visit us at www.kensingtonbooks.com.
