Katherine Center is a master of heartfelt storytelling, hailed by BookPage as "the reigning queen of comfort reads." A New York Times bestselling author, Katherine has penned eleven novels that blend humor and heartbreak in deeply resonant romantic comedies—including The Bodyguard, Hello Stranger, Things You Save in a Fire, and her much-anticipated 2024 release, The Rom-Commers. Her signature style—bittersweet, uplifting, and emotionally rich—has drawn comparisons to literary icons like Jane Austen and Nora Ephron.
Her novels often explore how life’s hardships become catalysts for growth, reminding readers that healing and love often go hand in hand. Center’s reach extends beyond the page: Netflix adaptations of Happiness for Beginners and The Lost Husband became global hits, with the former trending in 81 countries and the latter ranking among the platform’s top 25 films of 2020.
Praised by authors like Emily Henry and Jodi Picoult, Katherine’s books have earned acclaim across major platforms like Goodreads, Amazon, and Book of the Month. She lives in Houston with her husband, two teens on the edge of adulthood, and a fierce little dog—crafting novels that don’t just entertain, but restore the soul.
