Danielle Lori – an American romance writer blending mafia grit with passionate love stories, best known for her Made and Alyria series. Novels like The Sweetest Oblivion and The Darkest Temptation gained cult followings for their addictive hate-to-love chemistry. Living in Iowa with her husband, son, and many dogs, she adores coffee, ’90s movies, and crafts characters who walk the razor’s edge between danger and tenderness.
☕ She insists coffee fuels her stories — without it, even her most dangerous hero would stay unwritten. 🐶 The phrase “too many dogs” has become her signature line, sparking endless fan guesses about the actual number. 📚 Her teenage obsession with medieval romances still flickers through her mafia plots. 😈 Readers fall for her antiheroes — dark, immoral, yet strangely magnetic. ✨ The title Made is a wink both to mafia initiation and to fate molding people. 🌍 Despite no big publishers, her readership exploded worldwide — a grassroots success. 💬 Asked about upcoming books, she quips: “I’ll ask my anxiety and let you know.” 🎧 She carefully times her audio releases to arrive almost with the print. 👩🦰 She admitted that Tori from My Dear Husband is “100% me, just in another situation.” 📖 Critics once described her as an author with fewer books than her readers own — a quirky compliment. 😄 And the funniest mystery: fans still debate how many dogs she has, often more than they discuss her plot twists.
