It's back to Genovia in The Princess Present: A Princess Diaries Book by Meg Cabot, the sixth title in the series. Meg's friend, Lilly, and beau, Michael, are coming to visit her in Genovia for Christmas, and Mia wants to make sure everything is perfect. Lilly's aversion to the wealth around her and a disastrous gala ball add to the craziness, before all is resolved in an O'Henry-esque denouement. .
