Sebastian Cole (born August 19, 1964) is an award-winning American novelist. His debut novel, Sand Dollar: A Story of Undying Love, is one man's deathbed story of undying love for "the one who got away." What sets Sand Dollar apart from other romance novels is the way in which it mimics the tragedy of life: whereas things usually don't turn out the way we plan, bad things happen to good people, and the ones we love the most are usually the ones who hurt us the most. Sand Dollar also chronicles the toll that Borderline Personality Disorder takes on loved ones who have been devalued.
