I hope you enjoy your visit here.  I've included a link where you can purchase my novels, "Sapphire and Vengeance" and "Sparkle Rising" (Information on where you can purchase future novels is coming soon!).  See a preview of Sapphire & Vengeance below...

"Kolani Clayton isn't your ordinary computer engineer.  She is a valued asset that symbolizes a change in the status quo of the predominately male engineering field where she works.  When she is appointed the head of a prominent computer engineering firm, she is excited at the opportunity to prove that she is more than qualified.  Though she faces discouraging remarks and rumors, they don't stop her from doing what it takes.  Little does she know that this change in her life will lead her into an unlikely romance and a plot for revenge on her life!"

Hi!  I'm Dr. Nicole P. Smith, the author of "Sapphire and Vengeance" and "The Sparkle Within".  Sapphire & Vengeance (S&V) is my first published novel, though I have published poems, prayers, educational documents & essays as well.  Sparkle  Rising is my second novel which contains characters you met in Sapphire and Vengeance.  Book three is currently being written, and it is also connected to Sapphire and Vengeance and Sparkle Rising.  I hope you enjoy them all, as well as novels that follow, and that you refer them to your friends and family!
 
S&V was actually completed back in 1996.  I struggled with the "saucy" contents because of my Christian morals; when I tried to ignore what God wanted me to do, my novel was rejected.  Ten years later, after much prayer and soul-searching and following God's lead (and taking time to get married and have children), I rewrote S&V in three months, and after pitching it to a publisher, a contract was offered!
 
It is my wish that all who read my novels will enjoy them to the fullest whether they find a connection to them or not.  Each novel attempts to touch the heart in different ways through the love of Christ or the experiences they portray, whether they be fiction or non-ficton.
