That is, it usually means those things. But when you're Princess Mia, nothing happens the way it's supposed to. For one thing, Grandmère 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?
One of my all time favorite genre's is the cozy mystery and I especially love those that are set in the Southern part of the United States. Tamar Myers' series staring Abigail Timberlake Washburn, are witty and captivating, and a great read, especially for rainy days by the fire. Abigail is a modern day Ms. Marple meets Lucy Ricardo, and you never know what sort of trouble she is going to get herself into! That's part of the fun of reading these wonderful books. Myers' character development is outstanding, and her descriptions of Charleston and other Southern towns make the reader feel as if they are strolling the streets with Abigail. I also recommend Patricia Sprinkle's Southern mysteries.
