Blue Saffire is a woman on a mission to share her words and thoughts with the world. She has found her passion in her pen and steams up the pages with her humor, honesty, love and voice. Blue represents the secret author inside that some of us are too scared to let out.
Blue and her family all enjoy life in the suburbs. However life throws her challenges daily and since her diary is no longer enough she has decided it is time for new outlets for the words she would never say face to face to her friends, family or other moms and definitely not her husband.
So here in lays the thoughts of Blue Saffire; the author, the wife, the mother, and the woman. Enjoy.
Now I will let you in on who I really am. LOL. I am from New York born and raised. But I have spent two years in WV when I was in the seventh and eighth grade. I have a MBA in Marketing and Project management and a MED in Curriculum Design and Instruction Technology. I have ministry, yes I write erotica and have a ministry, LOL.
I also write music and I am married to a music producer and artist. I love to create and would not be whole if I couldn’t. Life has taken me some places in the last few years, after the loss of my mother. I didn’t think I would find my way back, but my faith and my writing has brought me through.
I write under multiple pen names because I have a hosts of characters living in my head and I never want to limit them. I have published ten books under the Blue Saffire name to date and a few others under my other pen names. I self-publish and wouldn’t have it any other way. I love what I do. It is a joy to weave my stories together and have my characters come to life.
I also run an online broadcast, Blue Saffire radio, that airs live every Tuesday at 9pm EST. I invite 2 authors on a month and interview them. It is such a blast and I love talking to the authors and making new friends.
So that is me. Verleiz aka Blue Saffire.

Author Interview
1. What inspired you to become a Multicultural, IR or BWWM Romance writer?
I am a dreamer. So many of my books and characters come from my dreams.
My characters tell me who they are and where they are from. They inspire me to
write their stories no matter where they are from or what their background
maybe. Many of them just happen to be IR or Multicultural characters.
2. Besides writing, what are some of your favorite things?
Music, my house is filled with music. I guess the two,
writing and music, go hand and hand for me. Then there is fashion and shopping.
I am a certified shopaholic. Yes, I admit it.
3. Name at least two (2) authors that you admire who write Multicultural, IR or BWWM Romance?
Admire is a strong word, not one I would use. However, I
respect and enjoy the works of SK Lessly, Eve Vaughn’s paranormal IR, Twyla
Turner, Lavender Parker, and Ancelli to name a few.
4. What types or genre of books do you enjoy reading? What are you currently reading?
I enjoy reading everything. I don’t think I can name just one genre. I
just finished a Lavender Parker book, Spitfire
Suckerpunch, but I am on a few deadlines so I am not reading anything right
now
5. Are you working on anything new? If so, when can we expect it to be released?
6. Do you have any scheduled upcoming events; such as book signings, interviews, etc.?
I am so excited about next year. I will be hosting my own event in South
Carolina, at the Wild Dunes Resorts and I have invited my authors friends to
come out and join me. The event is called Blue’s March Madness and I plan to
cause some madness for the readers to enjoy. In addition, I with be in Daytona,
in May, at IRAE 2017 and in New Orleans, for Swirling the Big Easy, in
September 2017. There are a few other events, but I am awaiting final details.
7. Where do you expect to be in your career as an author five (5) years from now?
In five years, I see myself watching my books on the big screen and in
TV series. Five years from now, I will have my brand established and everyone
will have heard of Blue Saffire and tried me out at least once.
8. What advice can you give to new authors who’s interested in writing in this genre?
Bring it! Follow your heart and write what it tells you. Don’t fear what
others with think. Write for you and the rest with come.
Special Message From Blue to You ...

Book Excerpt ~ Yours (Book 1)
“O-kayyy,” Kimmie whistles. “TMI.” She looks at Nick with a knowing smile, than peeks around him at me and winks.
Obliviously she knows something I don’t know, as usually. I am starting to become impatient with it all. I step from around Nick to Kimmie’s side and nudge her. She just looks up at the ceiling and starts to whistle.
“Uh, Sophi, would you like another drink?” Mark asks as he nervously rubs at the back of his neck while looking between Nick and me.
I can feel Nick’s eyes on me, but I am too nervous to look back at him. I hesitate in thought for a moment looking around at the rest of the group. In a split second, I decide to run.
“Sure, I’ll come with you,” I reply and slip my arm through his.
As we start to walk I feel a hand on my elbow and turn to find Nick looking down at my arm locked with Mark’s. He shifts his gaze to mine. “I was hoping I could give you your gift,” Nick says softly.
Before I can reply my mother’s voice fills the room. Nick grimaces and releases my arm looking pointedly again at my arm wrapped around Mark’s. I pull my arm from Mark’s hold and take a slight step away from him.
“Sephora, darling please … everyone can you gather around the pool outside,” my mother orders.
We all began to file outside to the infinity pool that is adorned with candles on three sides as water runs off the fourth infinity edge. Nick finds his way to my side and places his hand on the small of my back once again. Does this man know he is driving me crazy? I hope he never stops. I wish.
“I loved your natural hair color, we’ll have to do something about that,” Nick whispers into my ear and gives my hair a little tug. I release a low moan from somewhere foreign to me and have to bit my lip to suppress the end of it. Nick’s hand slips under my waves of hair to the nape, gently fisting the hair there, as he leans in to whisper again. “What am I going to do with you, my little butterfly,” he growls.
What? I must have blacked out somewhere. This is not happening, I must be dreaming. Why are my panties so wet? He’s got to keep his hands off of me. I think I am about to explode right here before the almost one hundred smiling faces around my mother’s pool. In Sephora’s world there is never such luck. His fingers start to massage my neck and I want badly to moan again.
I know my mother is talking. Saying something about toasting and celebrating her baby. It is lost to me as Nick starts to run his fingertips up and down my bare spine beneath my hair. Up and down and back up again to massage my nape and repeat. I’m positive my mother is talking, but to me it sounds more like; “Thank you all for coming this evening,” shiver, “Sephora is my baby and I am so proud of her,” shiver, “I want,” shiver, shiver, “us all,” shiver, “to go around,” shiver, shiver, shiver, “the pool to say something,” shiver, “as a toast,” shiver, shiver, “to celebrate,” shiver, “my,” shiver, “darling,” Shiver, shiver, shiver, SNAP.
OH.MY.GOD. I just had my first orgasm in front of a crowd of people and all he did was massage my neck and run his fingers down my back. He is so smooth about slipping his jacket off and placing it around my shoulders as if my shivers are from the cool night air and not my reaction to him.
As I come down out of the clouds he slowly dragged his fingers down my back to place them in that place he has claimed as his. I lean into him to keep from falling face first into the pool as my legs threaten to give out.
“Cold?” I hear Luke whisper as he puts an arm around my shoulders and pulls me from Nick’s embrace. Not now with the overprotective and possessive brother routine Lucian, Ugh.
Nick looks annoyed for a split second before training his attention on Kimmie’s mother who is toasting Kimmie, Mark and myself. I pull Nick’s jacket around me to replace the sense of loss I feel, now that I am out of his embrace. As the fog clears I try to understand what just happened. I am almost positive he knows what he just did to me. Yet he is standing here in such control and focus, laughing at Kimmie and her mother like all the other smiling faces here right now.
What does this mean? I want Nicholas Lincoln so bad, but does this mean he wants me too? One thing is for sure I am not taking that job now, no matter what.
