Upcoming Psychological Thriller Release, QUEEN OF HEARTS


I wanted to share with you on my blog (I know, I’m awful about being a regular over here!) that the psychological thriller I’ve been working on for a couple of years now, QUEEN OF HEARTS, will be releasing JULY 23, 2024!

I’m so thrilled to get this book out, because I’m writing in a genre I really love to read. Yet there are so few clean read options in the psych thriller/domestic suspense category. I wanted to write a book similar to Mary Higgins Clark, or to Hitchcock’s Rear Window movie–something that’s creepy and twisty, but not graphic.

I’ll share the book blurb below:

QUEEN OF HEARTS:

Her readers love her…
but one has gotten a little too attached.

Alexandra Dubois, a NYT bestselling author, has made a name for herself by crafting twisted serial killers in her romantic suspense series. When threatening notes from an “invested reader” escalate into violence, Alex has to admit she’s not safe in her own home. Although her autism makes any changes to her routine difficult, she reluctantly accepts her editor’s advice to fly to his sprawling vacation home in West Virginia so she can focus on her looming deadline.

Fighting paranoia that the stalker has discovered her mountain hideaway, Alex still forces herself to write several chapters in her novel. But when a thunderstorm leaves her stranded and she hears a knock at her door, she’s about to discover that life truly is stranger than fiction.

Fans of Alfred Hitchcock, Mary Higgins Clark, and Misery are sure to be hooked by this clean, fast-paced domestic thriller by RWA Daphne Award-winning author Heather Day Gilbert.

I hope you can check this one out! It’s now available for Kindle preorder here: https://www.amazon.com/Queen-Hearts-Gripping-Psychological-Thriller-ebook/dp/B0D64RDGRY, and it will be available in softcover and audiobook formats closer to the release date.

Thanks for joining me on this exciting ride!

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.
