About the Author

Cheryl St.John is the award-winning author of nearly 50 Harlequin and Silhouette books. Cheryl has always loved the exciting and diverse worlds available between the covers of books. As a child Cheryl wrote stories and drew covers, then stapled them into little books. She cut all the tiny book images from the book club advertisements in the Sunday paper and glued them to bits of cardboard so Barbie® had a full library.

She was a voracious reader and admits her early passion was for horror and true crime. Eventually she read Victoria Holt and Catherine Cookson, but one fateful day browsing the book section, she took a chance on a different genre and bought Hummingbird by LaVyrle Spencer, then promptly drove back to the store for The Rainbow Season by Lisa Gregory. She was hooked for life.

And so, when she got serious and decided to write a book, it was, of course, a romance. A very badly written and poorly plotted romance. But eventually she joined Romance Writers of America and her local chapter, Romance Authors of the Heartland, and was fortunate to have the late Diane Wicker Davis as her first mentor.

Cheryl believes in paying it forward, and her some of her most rewarding experiences have been sharing in the successes of writers she has coached over the years.

Editorial Reviews

"Saint or Sinner thoroughly endeared itself to me from beginning to end. Josh and Addie were so real to me that I was expecting them to walk right out of the pages!"

Under the Covers - Alison Luperchio

"...a beautifully rendered story told with compassion and a true understanding of both small-town life and human nature. Secondary characters are marvelous and Ms. St.John's style, so very reminiscent of LaVyrle Spencer's early work, adds to the warmth." ****

RT Booklovers Magazine - Kathe Robin

"Ms. St.John touches the soul...this is the hallmark of her work. The star that is Cheryl St.John continues to shine, and I look forward to her next book. It's sure to be another keeper."
