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 slight obsession inspired me to write several holiday novels over the years. From sweet to spicy to suspenseful, the subgenres of each book vary. But one thing remains the same--they all celebrate Christmas. Keep reading to find out more about the books along with a few fun facts! π
