Biography

Sherry Lynn never set out to become an author. She simply had a story that refused to stay quiet.

Born in Arizona in 1966 and adopted when she was just five days old, Sherry grew up knowing she had been chosen. But being chosen didn't mean life would be simple—and it certainly didn't mean it would be boring.

Her story is filled with family, friendship, first loves, broken hearts, questionable decisions, second chances, laughter in places there probably shouldn't have been laughter, and more than a few moments that make you wonder how she survived long enough to write about them.

But she did. And eventually, she decided to tell the truth about all of it.

Her memoir series, Chosen, isn't the story of a perfect life or a woman who always made the right decisions. It's the story of a girl who desperately wanted to be loved, a young woman who sometimes confused being loved with being needed, and the woman who eventually began looking back with enough distance—and enough grace—to understand them both.

Book One takes readers into Sherry's childhood and adolescence: adoption, family, friendship, the complicated relationship between a mother and daughter, and the first love that changed the way she understood her heart.

Book Two Part 1 and 2 follows her into young adulthood, where love becomes messier, consequences become real, and the girl who once believed love could fix almost anything begins discovering just how much of herself she is willing to lose trying to hold onto it.

The stories are deeply personal, sometimes painful, frequently funny, and unapologetically human.

Sherry doesn't write from the perspective of someone who has all the answers.

She writes as someone who finally became brave enough to ask the questions.

And because apparently living it once wasn't enough, she decided to put it all in books for strangers to read.

Sherry Lynn is the author of the Chosen memoir series.

Some stories are written because we remember them.

Others are written because they made us who we are.
