Leslie began her writing career as a stay-at-home-mom. Her life-long love for reading lead to reviewing books for Goodreads, Amazon and Jillian Dodd's Author Blog. Leslie is also the cofounder of The Indie Bookshelf, which hosts yearly author signings, primarily in the Dallas/FT Worth area. When she is not writing, you will find her lunching with friends, sipping a cup of joe, binging on Netflix or working on a home DIY project. Leslie lives in Texas with her husband, teenage son and daughter, and two very silly pugs. He lifted his eyes to me. I was instantly captivated. He was sheer beauty in his black, hooded cloak. Was he real or just my imagination? It didn't matter. I had to know the mysterious man shrouded in darkness...

Synopsis: The Graveyard Gatekeeper By Night Devil. Elias Vance, a cynical 28-year-old former graduate student seeking anonymity, inherits the sprawling, perpetually fog-shrouded Whispering Pines Cemetery in Oakhaven, Maine. He soon discovers this is no ordinary burial ground: it is a high-stakes Anchor Point, a naturally occurring weak spot in reality called The Veil that separates the living world from The Gloom, a terrifying shadow dimension of malicious entities known as Echoes. Elias isn't just a manager; he is the last in a line of supernatural guardians known as the Gatekeepers. His grandfather left him the tools of the trade: * The Ledger of Lost Souls: A mysterious spellbook containing the bindings and rituals required to keep the dead quiet and prevent Echoes from possessing fresh bodies. * The Silver-Inlaid Watch: An ancient artifact that allows Elias to hear the structural cracks in The Veil, alerting him to impending breaches. * Lila: The silent, watchful ghost of a child bound to the grounds, who acts as his unsettling guide. When the binding on a recently buried grave is deliberately broken, allowing a powerful Echo to escape, Elias realizes the threat isn't just supernatural—it's coordinated. Someone knows the cemetery's secrets and is actively helping the horrors of The Gloom break free. Now, caught between maintaining his dangerous post, deciphering his grandfather's perilous secrets, and evading the clandestine organization sworn to control the Veil (even if it means destroying the cemetery), Elias must fight to contain an interdimensional war. If he fails to maintain the balance, the Veil will collapse, and the existential dread of The Gloom will consume the world of the living. His quiet life is over. The war for the boundary has just begun.

As a struggling, broke, orphaned college student, Lilly needed all the funds she could get to survive. Lilly jumped at the chance when she found an offer online to work as a grave cleaner and companion for the dead at the local cemetery that paid enough to cover one month's rent just for one night of work. However, on her first night there, she realized she might have bitten off more than she could chew. So much for being a 'companion for the dead'. The man who sat on top of the tombstone looked very much alive! And he looked very much like the person who should be buried six feet under!

George Dickman is a perfectly normal person. Well, he would be perfectly normal if he didn't turn any living to dust with a mere touch. He decided to run away when he got beef with his father who seemed to hate him since birth. Four days later, he became homeless and that’s when he crossed paths with Diego—a graveyard resident.

Genso is a 21-year-old man who has had a strange and mysterious ability since he was a child. He can see events that no one else can, but only when he is under stress or pressure. Sometimes his visions come true, but other times they do not. The events he sees are often about the near future or important moments that can be dangerous or affect people around him. He does not know where this power comes from. Is it a gift or a curse? Does it come from inside him, or from some unknown force controlling his fate? Gensu often feels confused. He does not know if he should believe what he sees or ignore it. He also struggles to decide if he should act to change what he sees or do nothing. Every vision makes him ask the same question: should he try to change the future, or let things happen as they will?

Elyan, heir to the desert city of Heliqar, has always believed the world runs on cause and effect. As the prince who engineered a safe trade route across the deadly Red Sand Sea, he trusts discipline and rationality above all else. When a dying woman entrusts him with a set of artifacts unlike anything he’s ever studied—devices that respond not to strength or skill but to intent—Elyan becomes determined to unravel their precise, inexplicable rules one by one. His discovery draws the attention of Heliqar’s most ruthless enemy. Captured and taken deep into their territory, Elyan must finish deciphering the artifacts while navigating a system built on cruelty and fear. The more he learns, the clearer it becomes: the artifacts’ power is fundamentally incompatible with the logic of the state that now holds him prisoner. To save himself and protect his city, Elyan must decide how far he’s willing to push a tool that exposes injustice with perfect, merciless precision—and what it means to wield that power inside a nation defined by it.
