It means "beloved" as in mi querida amiga...my beloved friend...and in my experience is used as an affectionate term such as sweetheart, sugar, baby or honey, maybe dear, etc....but "amor" is more commonly used for dear. I suppose some people might use it to describe their mistress but I haven't heard it used like that.
