PARAMUS, N.J. (CBSNewYork) -- Love is in the air this weekend as couples across the Tri-State area celebrate Valentine's Day.
Candlelit dinners, flower petals on the floor, stargazing down the Jersey Shore were just a few of the romantic memories New Jersey residents shared with 1010 WINS' John Montone on Friday.

"(Montone: A very spicy romance you have?) Very spicy, too spicy," she said.
