The one sentence that does not sound right to me is "She is likely to love him". It is not absolutely wrong, but it appears to use "likely" as an adverb to modify the pronoun "she". Adverbs can't modify pronouns. For the sentence to make sense, "likely" needs to modify "is". Instead, say
"It is likely that she loves him" ("likely" modifies "is")
"Likely, she will love him" (modifies "will")
"She will likely love him" (modifies "will")
"She likely will love him"
