OOC FB size

Just a brief post to let you know that Out of Circulation, Book 1 in the Hemlock Creek Suspense Series, releases individually for KINDLE today (it’s still also in the Smoke and Mirrors boxed set). So you can pick it up here for only 99c/Kindle!

Here’s the blurb:

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.

Here are a couple reviews of this book–click the link to visit the full reviews on the blogs!:

Christian Shelf-Esteem:

“If your bookshelf includes authors like Dani Pettrey and Lynette Eason, it will gladly welcome Heather Day Gilbert. In this novella (just over 130 pages), Gilbert leads her readers through a fast-paced tale that teems with action. From the moment an armed gunman entered the Hemlock Creek Library until the last piece of this puzzle fell into place, Gilbert’s remarkable talent as a suspense writer kept me engrossed in Kate and Ace’s predicament.”

USA Today Happy Ever After:

“Why you should read it: A librarian, a bodyguard and the Russian mob in rural West Virginia? If that sounds like a fun recipe for brewing up an exciting, small-town romance, you’re right! In Out of Circulation (Hemlock Creek Suspense, book one), versatile inspirational author Heather Day Gilbert has crafted a mouthwatering mix of romance and suspense into one sweet, novella-size bite.

Fans of romantic suspense and inspirational romance will fall in love with Ace and Katie as they race against time to satisfy the demands of a vicious crime lord. This faith-affirming, sweet romance novella is the perfect quick read for a rainy afternoon. Don’t miss it!”

Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love setting my contemporary mystery series in my home state of WV. What you might not know is that there was a time I wanted nothing more than to move away and spread my wings (somewhere like NYC! Where I wound up living for a year when I got married!). But years down the road, I felt my mountain roots pulling me back. Suddenly, I could see nothing but beauty in these comforting mountains and moody skies and honeysuckled summers. West Virginia is so many things—good and bad as any state is—but it’s entirely unique. My husband once marveled at how many people “came back” to their home state here, even after being gone for years, and I see that all the time. These #Appalachianmountains have a way about them, and it becomes a part of you, a love you don’t want to let go of. I’m a #mountainmama, and I’m glad to bring this truly #wildandwonderful state to readers with my books.
