Welcome to the web home of Maddy Barone, paranormal romance author. I owe a huge debt to the works of various authors I’ve encountered throughout my life. A book is a relatively cheap way to travel the world and even leave our world for fantasy lands where we can be anyone we want. From chapter books in grade school to young adult books in my teen years to 800 page novels as an adult, books have educated me, given me hours of enjoyment, introduced me to beloved friends, and given my vivid imagination the green light to run wild. As an author, I’d like to give my reader those same things.

What’s going on for Maddy these days?
Published April 5, 2024: Lobo’s Mate
I wrote this 31,000 word novella as a thank you for my readers who stuck with me while I fought cancer. I haven’t won that fight yet, but I’m not giving up.
Lobo is socially awkward lone wolf who never expected his wolf to choose a mate. Gen is woman who thought she was the only survivor of a plane crash that threw her fifty years into a post-apocalyptic future where women are rare and obliged to marry.
When a local rancher gets pushy about marriage, Gen looks desperately for an escape. Lobo offers to take her to his cousin’s Pack, where other women from the crash live. That sounds good to her. He might stumble over his words when talking to her, but he has no trouble scaring off her would-be suitors. But what does he want in exchange for his protection?

Victoria’s Cat
Daughters of the Wolf Clan 2
Released July 11, 2017
Victoria Wolfe, the only daughter of the Alpha of the Lakota Wolf Clan, has a mind of her own. Her father might put his foot down, but when she wants something, she gets it. And she wants Marty Madison. His calm steady nature calls to her volatile spirit. The fact that he turns into a mountain lion at will doesn’t matter to her at all.
Marty Madison has never seen a woman as beautiful as Victoria. Her lush figure and pretty face appeal to him, but what entices him most is her self-assurance. No demure young miss, she faces the world with a steely core of inner strength. Too bad her father objects to him being a mountain cat.
They thought the only obstacle to their marital happiness was her father. They were wrong. An evil empire is rising in the east, one which threatens not only them, but the homes and lives of everyone they love. Marty will need all of his steady calm to survive. Victoria will need all her steely inner strength to hold on. In a world under threat, can their love triumph over adversity?

Olivia Stensrud, one of the precious daughters of the Lakota Wolf Clan, has lived a charmed life in a world slowly recovering from the nuclear attacks that destroyed technology some seventy-five years earlier. When she is stolen by a feral cat shifter who insists she’s his mate, her father, brothers and cousins track her down and take her back.
Kit is heartbroken by her loss. A mate is a rare thing for his kind to find. Her father promised to kill him if he ever came near Olivia again, but how can Kit give up such a beloved prize? Determined to make himself into a fit mate for a Daughter of the Wolf Clan, Kit goes to live with humans to learn their civilized ways before setting off to woo his mate.
