About the Book

Katie McClure always dreamed of becoming an FBI agent like her father, but an injury has permanently sidelined her as a librarian in her rural West Virginia hometown. Katie’s peaceful life is torn apart when armed men burst into the library, targeting her. Her fears mount after a break-in at her apartment, and she reluctantly accepts an offer of protection from Ace Calhoun, the Manhattan bodyguard who rushed to her aid against the library invaders.

But Ace didn’t show up in Hemlock Creek by accident. Even as he hides his true motives for protecting Katie, he’s pulled in by her indomitable courage and her undeniable attraction to him.

With the Russian mob breathing down her neck, the clock is ticking for Katie to find out what happened to a bank stash that went missing years ago. To her dismay, she discovers her father was not the man she believed him to be…and neither is Ace.

"Out of Circulation, the romantic suspense by Heather Day Gilbert, is a fun ride with clues and surprises along the way. It reminds me of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum and Ranger." ~ Jan Thompson, author of the Savannah Sweethearts and Seaside Chapel series
"A spunky, quick-witted librarian who knows how to handle a firearm. An irresistibly imperfect alpha male hero who desperately wants to be a good man. Add a slowly unraveling mystery and Heather Day Gilbert's well-seasoned prose, and the result is a romantic story I'd check out again and again." ~ Christina Coryell, author of The Girls of Wonder Lane series
