About the Author

Matt Cain writes humorous, riveting and uplifting novels about self-discovery and self-love.Born in Bury and brought up in Bolton, Matt was a gay child in the 1980s, a time when boys like him were widely hated. He also had a little-known health condition which meant his heart cut out several times a week. Feeling like a freak, he channelled a fierce desire to prove himself into his schoolwork, then a series of high-profile media jobs - as a documentary director for ITV, arts correspondent on Channel 4 News, and editor of Attitude magazine - before pursuing his dream of writing fiction. But he had to battle through ten years of rejection and crowdfund his breakthrough novel, The Madonna of Bolton. He's since become the author of several bestsellers, including The Secret Life of Albert Entwistle, Becoming Ted, One Love, and Game On - a Quick Read and one of the official short novels of World Book Night 2024.At the age of 37, doctors finally worked out what was wrong with Matt's heart and installed a pacemaker to stop it cutting out. At the age of 44, he bucked decades of romantic failure when he went on a Tinder date and met Harry Glasstone, who he married in 2022. Matt and Harry have since presented their own show on Virgin Radio Pride. They live in London with their cat Nelly, possibly the best loved pet in the world.
