about me

I am the wife of Tony Maldonado and Mommy to Grace Elizabeth Maldonado (born February 2012). I am also an Organizational Development Specialist and Executive Coach. This choice of career has provided me with a wealth of inspiration for my writing! My background includes a degree in psychology, post graduate training and consulting experience in Organizational Behavior Management and over ten years in executive management, specializing in management training, development and compliance. Besides my family and my writing, my passion is to help others discover and achieve their goals. I have been an avid fiction reader all my life and have been writing for years. As a Christian, I am often challenged to show how to be light and salt in the mission field of everyday life. I wrote Broken Warriors to show how we can disciple people anywhere, and how by doing so we can impact people's lives farther than we think possible. I have chosen to illustrate this through one woman's battle with an eating disorder, and how working in a Kingdom company opens the door to her healing. I also hope to inspire like-minded others to think about how they can change their organizations to become Kingdom oriented.

Broken Warriors

Carrie Maldonado

Melayna Grant finds recovery and a higher purpose working for a Kingdom company, but darker forces are also at work to destroy her.


Broken Warriors make the fiercest fighters. My 108,000 word novel Broken Warriors is a novel about brokenness, redemption, and especially how today's corporate world can be a ministry field. Broken Warriors is the story of Melayna Ashley Grant, a driven young professional on the verge of realizing all of her dreams when she lands the job of a lifetime at Septor Demolitions. It doesn’t even bother Melayna, much, to learn that Septor’s founder, Giles Childress, has established his company on Christian principles. Although Melayna has been raised a devout atheist, she is willing to live and let live. After all, Giles’ insistence that his company abides by a strong moral code and sense of fair play makes it a great place to work. Giles’ dream is to build Septor into an international company that changes lives. Melayna soon becomes dedicated to that cause as well. Unfortunately, two things stand in their way. On the outside, an unethical competitor threatens Septor’s existence. Inside, Melayna is almost undone by an eating disorder that quickly takes over her life. When tragedy strikes, it is only her newfound faith that gives her strength and becomes a cornerstone for the Septor team.

Laura, this is an excellent book! You've done an amazing job of developing your characters, and making them likable/lovable even in their unlovable states:) I can't imagine this not getting published. I would recommend a final read through/edit for punctuation. The misplaced commas distract from ... view book
