Maybe Maureen Johnson? I've only read two of her books, Suite Scarlett and Girl at Sea; both had some romance. I second Suite Scarlett and also 13 Little Blue Envelopes also by Maureen Johnson. And her in general!
Dairy Queen and its sequel The Off-Season are awesome - everyone I've recommended them to has loved them.
Artichoke's Heart is one of my very favourites from last year.

Wicked Lovely -- I liked this better than most urban fantasy I've read (urban fantasy is generally not my thing).
