Leslie Johnson
Leslie is a California native but recently moved to Arizona after a stint in Arkansas. She enjoys travel and being with friends.
She is an avid reader of many genres, but prefers romances with travel or thriller themes. She loves writing about strong women and strong men because the world needs both!
Elle Dawson
Sharing ones thoughts on paper is an intimate experience, and should not be taken lightly. Some days I fear this process, as my mind can be a scary place to dwell. Other days I realize I’m not alone in this journey, and although the very action of expelling ones deepest thoughts onto paper is intensely personal, it is deeply healing. Funny how that works.
I will continue to write as Elle Dawson, and be a mom, sister, daughter and friend in my real life. I'll enjoy the beauty of Tennessee and read books that take me away or speed up my heart. When I'm not writing them.

About FORGETTING AUGUST
She can forgive, but can she forget?
Some days, Everly still thinks she sees him. In the food court at the mall, or in a car speeding past as the light changes. It only lasts a second, but when it happens, she slips back to a time when she was ruled-and nearly ruined-by August Kincaid. And it doesn't matter that she's moved on, that she's about to marry another man. In those moments the only thing she can do to regain control is take a deep breath and remind herself that August can't hurt her-because he's in a coma. Except that he's not anymore.
August is awake. With no memories, he sets out to solve the mystery of his lost life. He unearths a photograph of a beautiful redhead named Everly and knows instinctively that she's the key. But when he finds her, the August she describes is more monster than man.
Tortured by the thought of having hurt her, August wants only to become the man Everly deserves. As the new August emerges, Everly glimpses the person she first fell in love with. But can she trust that this August is real? When the final secret of their shared past is revealed, one of them will make a choice that changes their future forever . . .

Excerpt
I felt I should cry, but I just couldn’t. I was too angry…with him,
with her, with everyone who liked the status, with Anthony and how he had
changed my world. I couldn’t even see straight for a few minutes. When my
vision cleared, I noticed a few messages in my inbox. The newest one was from
him, apologizing for the public message and saying he never thought our common
friends would be that stupid. It was so his style, minimizing what had happened
and trying to find new targets for me to blame. There were other messages from
some of the people who had liked their new relationship status saying they did
not realize what they were doing at first, then they could not unlike it
without hurting them. Bullshit. They were all assholes. The two of them for
publicly posting the update. My so-called friends for not thinking carefully
about it. Me for having believed whatever he had said in the car, even if hope
had been buried somewhere deep down.
I took my car keys from the
counter. The key card from his building was still there. He had made that
especially for me a few weeks before the conversation in the car. He said it
was over with her and had given it to me one morning, after a passionate night
together, telling me he expected me to come over and spend the night a lot more
often. It had meant the world to me and he had never asked me to give it back.
I removed it from its ring and broke the plastic bar with my bare hands. I did
not think I actually had the strength, but I did and it cut my hand a little. I
kept looking at my blood as it dripped on the counter and hoped the pain I
could no longer cry out would pour through that fresh wound.
That was when Louis walked in with a big, toothy grin on his face.
“Hey, I am back and I bring delicious treats,” he beamed. He noticed my hand
and the look on my face, and quickly dropped everything next to my computer.
“What’s wrong?” he asked, worry in his voice.
I opened my mouth to say something, but I just couldn’t.
“Alexa, was Anthony here? You have to tell me!” He grabbed my
shoulders and shook me a little. I pushed him away and walked to the other side
of the counter to lean against it. He came closer and took my hand.
“You cut yourself.” It was not a question. He could tell what kind of
wound it was.
I really wanted to say it was nothing. Instead, I put my other hand
around his neck, pulled him close, and kissed him. I expected nothing, in all
honesty, other than cold rejection. I wasn’t really thinking, just acting on an
impulse. But, for some reason, he kissed me back. When our tongues met, my
knees gave out so I grabbed his shoulders with both my hands, bloodying his
shirt.
He caught me in his arms and pulled me close, pressing me tightly
against him. I was used to powerful reactions to kisses, but this was still off
the charts. Vampire thing, I told myself. First line of baseborns. The one
thought that was clear in my head was that I did not want that kiss to ever
end. All the anger, hurt, and pain were gone, and this new situation with Louis
seemed so raw, so pure. I felt his hand gliding down my thigh, then his fingers
on the back of my knee. He hardly needed to do something for me to respond as
he wanted me to so I put my leg around his hip. He never stopped kissing me,
but somehow put my hands around his neck, took me in his arms and sat me on the
kitchen counter, pushing his body closer to me.
I felt dizzy and mesmerized, and all I wanted was to keep feeling him.
His tongue, his lips, his hands, his entire body. The moment I just left all
thought behind and let my instinct take over, he brutally moved away.
“What the hell are you doing?!” he yelled, pacing around the kitchen
and rubbing his forehead.
It took me a little while to try and gather my thoughts. But before I
could say anything, a sudden rage got the better of me. What the hell did he
mean by asking me what I had done? Wasn’t he doing it with me?
“Holding a vampire down and forcing my tongue down his throat!” I
heard myself yelling back. “Oh, wait, that’s impossible!”
I could see the anger oozing through all his pores. His eyes were
glassy and fear-inducing, his fangs were out and his body language spoke of a
predator ready to jump on their pray. He started to say something, but I was
faster. “Whatever it is, keep it to yourself, asshole!”
I jumped from the counter, pushed him away, and stormed out of the
kitchen. I ran up the stairs, grabbed my gym bag, then got out of the house as
fast as I could. I threw my bag in the car and started driving, fast and
reckless, as if my life depended on getting to that gym. I got there in no
time, changed in an instant, and started running on the treadmill. When it did
not tire me enough, I moved to the elliptical bike and finally decided throwing
punches at a big round bag filled with sand was way more refreshing.
