Cat Sebastian has written sixteen queer historical romances. Cat’s books have received starred reviews from Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, and Booklist.

Before writing, Cat was a lawyer and a teacher and did a variety of other jobs she liked much less than she enjoys writing happy endings for queer people. She was born in New Jersey and lived in New York and Arizona before settling down in a swampy part of south. When she isn’t writing, she’s probably reading, having one-sided conversations with her dog, or doing the crossword puzzle.

The best way to keep up with Cat’s projects is to subscribe to her newsletter.

They're together, and I meant for them to have been together since before the beginning of Soldier's Scoundrel :) :) :)(less)

Quotes by Cat Sebastian  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Honor was a luxury item, like hair pomade and snuff. Its only purpose was to show the world that you could afford to be impractical, that you had enough money to behave in a way that was compatible with some ludicrous code instead of acting out of self-preservation like the rest of humanity.”
Cat Sebastian, The Soldier's Scoundrel

“Families might usually be bonded by blood, but maybe sometimes they’re bonded by shared secrets, by a delicate mixture of caution and faith, by the conviction that hiding together is better in every way than hiding alone.”
Cat Sebastian, We Could Be So Good

“I used to think that revenge was about defending one’s honor, but it turns out that honor is just spite dressed up for Sunday.”
Cat Sebastian, The Queer Principles of Kit Webb
