Cat Sebastian lives in a swampy part of the South with her husband, three kids, and two dogs. Before her kids were born, she practiced law and taught high school and college writing. When she isn't reading or writing, she's doing crossword puzzles, bird-watching, and wondering where she put her coffee cup.
"""Cat Sebastian writes about love in all its forms with the care, warmth and effortless mastery of someone putting a homecooked meal in front of you. I don't know how she keeps getting better, or how she managed to make me care so much about a sport I know literally nothing about, but this one is--again!--the best yet. A truly wonderful and heart-healing romance about community, grief, perseverance, New York bakeries--and baseball."" -- Freya Marske, bestselling author of A Marvellous Light ""It's impossible not to be romantic about baseball in YOU SHOULD BE SO LUCKY. It's a book about second chances, the inevitability of failure, and the everyday miracle of finding--and deserving--love. As with all Cat Sebastian books, this one changed me irreversibly. For everyone who's ever had to come back from the worst thing they've ever imagined; for everyone who longs for life to be surprising and wonderful again. I never wanted to put this book down--I laughed, I sighed, I cried, and I know I will return to it many, many times."" -- Olivia Blake, NYT bestselling author of the Atlas series ""Another wonderful read from Cat Sebastian. This book was like a big warm hug, with wonderful characters you can't help but root for. Mark and Eddie stole my heart within the first few pages, and their story of love and growth, especially in the face of grief, will be a sure hit with readers."" -- Emma Denny ""It's not about the events [of the plot], it's about the going through [them]. And the going through is wonderful: At one point a character makes some soup, and then later a different character makes more soup, and here I am weeping and prostrate because the reader knows what that soup means. ... Queer oppression, the civil rights movement, white supremacy--these are tangible contexts in this novel, but they are not the subject. The subject: joy as praxis, love as liberation. You can't do the big rebellions if you can't start with the small ones."" -- New York Times Book Review on We Could Be So Good ""Irresistible.... There's plenty of conflict to keep the pages flying, but it's the scenes of Nick and Andy's cozy domesticity that truly shine. This wonderful period romance will leave readers just as giddy as its leads."" -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) on We Could Be So Good ""[A] sublimely romantic love story."" -- Booklist (starred review) on We Could Be So Good ""This sweetly angsty novel...will appeal to anyone who enjoys reading opposites-attract romances with found family subplots."" -- Library Journal (starred review) on We Could Be So Good ""The writing is stellar, the characters are divine, and the setting is wonderful. [We Could Be So Good] is an incredible book, and I can't recommend it enough."" -- Romance Reviews Today"
