Is it already August?! This summer is flying by! I hope you've all had a chance to get out and enjoy the weather (if it hasn't been too hot wherever you are...). Balance has been a challenge for me as I've had so many deadlines to meet.

Keep reading to check it out and hear more about the book!
Thank you for stopping by! I’m Denise N. Wheatley, a writer whose novels embody love and happy endings. I pen contemporary romance, with subgenres that span from chick lit to suspense, sweet to steamy. The common theme throughout my work involves affairs of the heart, and I strive to weave entertaining tales that’ll stay with readers long after the final chapter ends. I hope you'll enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them!

COVER REVEAL: HOMICIDE AT VINCENT VINEYARD
A case from the past could change their future...
New chief of police Jake Love is just settling in when information on a cold case pops up. Bringing closure to the murder at Vincent Vineyard is his top priority. And having his girlfriend, Ella Bowman, at his side helping with the investigation should have drawn them even closer. But when Ella’s connection to the powerful family leads to threats, the truth’s revelation might destroy them both.
HOMICIDE AT VINCENT VINEYARD was a little different for me because I'd never written a romance where the characters were already dating. But I loved this take immensely as it allowed the hero and heroine to love on one another freely, and to showcase that steam between them from the very first page. It also meant that when things within the relationship went left, they really went left. So their intensity and passion for one another, along with the anger, jumped right off the pages. Here's more on what you can expect from the book:
💼 Unconventional Workplace Romance
🚨 Newly-Minted Police Chief
🩸 A Nurse with a Secret
🗡 Serial Killer on the Loose
🔥 Fast-Paced Romantic Suspense
🍇 Beautiful Vineyard Setting
🔀 Unpredictable Twists & Turns
👫 Dual POV
🧩 Solved Mystery
HOMICIDE AT VINCENT VINYARD is the third and final installment in my West Coast Crime Story series. While I will miss the Love family tremendously, I truly enjoyed writing these characters and feel as though each of their stories came full circle. They've been through a lot. So creating their happily ever afters was a joyous occasion.
