Sharon Stuart, transgender rights advocate: "Cherry Single ... confronts transvestite sexuality without flinching and without gratuity ... At last, a serious work of fiction about a character we can believe in, experience pain and joy with ... and feel good about. ... The hero/ine, David and Natalie Nunley ... takes a journey that many emerging crossdressers will relate to ... [Cherry Single] delivers an afterglow that lasts for a week -- a crossdressing journey with a happy ending."

Pamela Degroff, book reviewer, Xenogeny newspaper: "It's a rare occasion when one gets to read a work of fiction that could have been based ... on your own life. Cherry Single ... is such a book. The writer skillfully weaves threads that are common to any transgendered experience into the cloth from which David Nunley, the main character, is cut ... The realism of the story will be immediately apparent to anyone who is transgendered ... The strength of Cherry Single is found in the way the writer develops David Nunley's personality and character. Those of us who are transgendered have had to deal with the same issues that are raised ... Seize the opportunity to read this book."

Gianna E. Israel, transgender counselor: "David, the main character, explores many of the nuances associated with crossdressing. Like many crossdressers he truly seems in conflict ... This hot and steamy read is perfectly suitable for curling up at home on a snugly Saturday afternoon."

Mariette Pathy Allen, photographer of the transgender community: "... the eroticism in [Cherry Single] ... feels like an honest depiction of the feelings and fantasies of many crossdressers, especially those in the early stages of self-discovery ... There is enough variety and detail in this book to entertain a range of crossdressers from the most fetishistic to the Tri-Ess stalwart."

Sheila Kirk, M.D., transgender author and lecturer: "[Cherry Single's] appeal to the novice and the reluctant in heart is real and can support the Trans person afraid to acknowledge the Spirit and need within. The denial and the burden we all carry for ... portions of our lives has to be done away. This work can certainly help."

Dr. John Money, founder of the Gender Identity Clinic at John Hopkins University and Professor Emeritus of Medical Psychology: "Here is ... [a] novel that opens a window of insight into ... gender-crossing."

Amy Sakurai, book reviewer for Northwest Passages, the newsletter of the Northwest Gender Alliance: " ... there are so few literary works featuring sympathetic characters of our ilk ... Cherry Single is a literate, accessible effort well above the improbable fantasy stories which are the standard fare in our community."
