Today we’re joined by Cara Lockwood, USA Today bestselling author of more than 35 books, including the hit The Takeover and the beloved I Do (But I Don’t), which was adapted into a Lifetime Original Movie. Cara’s latest work, There’s No Good Book for This but I Wrote One Anyway, blends memoir, humor, and pep talks, offering readers a candid look at her journey through breast cancer. In 2023, during a routine mammogram, Cara was diagnosed with Stage 1 HER+ breast cancer. She fought back with a double mastectomy, chemotherapy, and reconstructive surgery — and went into remission in 2024. Her latest book, "There’s No Good Book for This but I Wrote One Anyway: The Irreverent Guide to Crushing Breast Cancer" (Oct. 1, 2025), is the no-nonsense, laugh-out-loud guide she wishes she’d had during her own journey. Part memoir, part pep talk, and part screaming into the void, Cara’s book offers patients hope.
