Keep reading for all the details, plus how to get SHE GETS WHATS SHE WANTS for free!
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!

This Month's Stop: The Plot Thickens Book Club
With nearly 12,000 members, The Plot Thickens Book Club reaches an incredible community of readers. Needless to say, I was thrilled when I was invited to appear. During our conversation, I shared more about my latest Harlequin Intrigue series, A West Coast Crime Story, with a spotlight on Book 6, FEARLESS PURSUIT. Here's more on this enemies-to-lovers story...
Capturing a serial killer has made Maxwell Police Chief Danielle Miller a celebrity. But after she’s almost murdered, then bombarded by threatening texts, a new rash of killings begins. Dani suspects Von Reed and his security firm, RPS, are involved. The feud between Maxwell’s police department and RPS has spanned generations. But though Dani has resented Von all her life, Von has secretly burned with desire for his nemesis. As the attacks escalate, Dani grudgingly accepts Von’s denial of guilt. But can their joining forces help them apprehend a dangerous criminal?
I had such a great time chatting not only about my romantic suspense novels, but also about my writing journey, the inspirations behind my stories, and the different genres I’ve explored over the years. From medical romance like ER DOC'S LAS VEGAS REUNION to sweet Christmas stories and contemporary romance, my books span a wide range. Click here to check out those novels!
I did manage to sneak in some behind-the-scenes scoop on plotlines that didn’t make it into the blurbs, and even talked about a few of the true crime cases that helped shape some of my Intrigue novels.
If you’ve been wanting to check out one of my Tule Publishing titles, now’s the perfect time! SHE GETS WHAT SHE WANTS is currently available for free through BookBub FreeReads until April 5 for subscribers to the Rom-Com newsletter. CLICK HERE for all the details! While the book can absolutely be read as a standalone, it's also the first novel in my Fearless Fairytale series. Want a sneak peek? CLICK HERE for an excerpt!
As always, thanks so much for stopping by! Stay tuned for details on my next stop, which will be an author chat with the STCC Book Club next month. After that, I'll be revealing the cover for Book 7 in the West Coast Crime Story series and sharing Harlequin's official blurb, so there's lots of fun stuff coming up. Until then, take care and stay safe! 💖
