Finding the Perfect Wave, part one, is Cheri's first novel and the first in the Perfect Wave trilogy. She grew up in Southern California where she loved spending as much free time as she could at the beach. She and her husband Mark, live in Arizona with their four children. She loves to travel with her family, especially to beautiful beaches.

She has been asked on many occasions, "How does a stay at home Mom come to write a book?" Her answer...

"I stay at home with four of God's greatest creations who call me Mom. My inspiration to write this novel and the four that follow are my children.

"I stay at home with four of God's greatest creations who call me Mom. My inspiration to write this novel and the four that follow are my children.

One Sunday afternoon, I was watching a delightful and stirring movie with my family. I was grateful that I didn't have to hold the remote in my hand waiting for the "inappropriate" scene to show up, leaving me in a panic to fast forward before my young family was "tainted". As I viewed the bonus material on the DVD, featuring the author of the story, I remember feeling so thankful to this "ordinary" woman who created such a delightful piece of literature, which would later become a feature film. This author reiterated so many principles and values that I have desperately been trying to teach my children.

I was encouraged and wanted to do something, considering my oldest son was soon to be a teenager, GULP! And I feared some aspects of the world that he was soon entering into. I contemplated what I could do to encourage writers to produce pure and decent literature that young people would not only love and enjoy reading, but would also remind them that being a good person and holding fast to their values was not only acceptable but desirable.

Then in a moment of inspiration, I realized that I could be that person, and over two years later, "Finding the Perfect Wave, Part One" is born. I believe with my whole heart that I have succeeded in my goal offering young people, of every age, a story that inspires us to be the best we can be! It is my sincere honor to share this story with you!" ...more

Not to mention the unimaginable number of "tastes" when it comes to people's preferences in the books they read. Which can be a bit tricky when you are a people pleaser by nature.
