check out Valentine by Tom Savage.
Anything by Tami Hoag. I really like Ashes to Ashes, A Thin Dark Line and Cry Wolf.
The Devil Wears Prada was pretty interesting.
I also used to read Mary Higgins Clark when I babysat.

How about The Lovely Bones and Lucky by Alice Sebold? The first is told from the point of view of a 14 year old murder victim and the second is a memoir about the author's rape in college. Both well written.
Philippa Gregory writes some historical fiction - and I enjoyed The Other Boleyn Girl and The Virgin Queen.
If you like some paranormal books, check out Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series. I've read a few. Laurell Hamilton also has a series about Anita Blake, a vampire executioner who raises the dead for a living. This series starts strong, but starts to wear thin later on. I'll still probably finish it sometime.
Have fun!
