Diana Freel writes psychological thrillers, cozy mysteries, and evidence-based nonfiction for NICU families.

Her fiction is published through Velvet Raven Books, where twisty mysteries and emotionally grounded thrillers unfold within a shared world of secrets, investigations, and characters whose lives extend beyond a single story.

The Willow Creek Mysteries follows Claire Anderson, a photographer-turned-bakery owner and amateur sleuth who uncovers the secrets hidden beneath the charming surface of Willow Creek, Pennsylvania. The Samantha Hayes Thrillers follows FBI profiler Samantha Hayes as she investigates dangerous, high-stakes cases that test her instincts, resilience, and belief in redemption.

Diana is also a board-certified neonatal nurse practitioner with three decades of experience in neonatal care. Drawing on her work as a neonatal respiratory therapist, NICU nurse, and nurse practitioner, she creates clear, compassionate resources that help parents understand their baby’s care and feel more confident navigating the NICU.

When she is not writing or caring for her smallest patients, Diana enjoys traveling with her wife, building Spotify playlists for her characters, preparing for her next hiking adventure, and spending time with their dachshund and boxer.

She believes the best books do more than inform or entertain. They leave something behind in the heart.
