Insufficient Mating Material

In this sequel to Cherry's 2003 debut, "Forced Mate," a prince, stranded on a desert island on Earth for failure to mate in public, must find a way to woo the woman he loves without giving away his true identity. Original.

Another Frolicking Foray into the Tigron Empire

'Insufficient Mating Material' is another frolicking foray into the Tigron Empire and the saga of the Great Djinn. This time it is Tarrant-Arragon's sister, the Princess Martia-Djulia, who plays the role of the reluctant bride, with a few new twists.

For one thing, the man she refuses to marry is the very man she refuses him for.

Huh? (In the immortal words of Inigo Montoya, Let me 'splain. [thoughtful pause] No, there is too much. Let me sum up.)

Martia-Djulia is madly in love with an officer in the Tigron imperial forces. After a single passionate tryst, she is more than prepared to make their match a permanent arrangement. But her officer has managed to make himself a liability to the Empire.

Fortunately for him, this particular officer has friends in high places. A little misinformation here, a bit of cosmetic surgery there, and he is summarily reborn to his original birthright, the Great Djinn Prince Djetthro-Jason.

Same guy, same gal, only he knows it and she doesn't.

Pining away for her lost love, Martia-Djulia refuses to marry her princely substitute, turning up her nose at the very man she swears she loves. Add a little Rowena Cherry and you can guess where this is heading.

Right you are. Mayhem ensues.

The disgruntled royal couple is stranded on a deserted island, left to their own devices to sort the thing out. Prince Djetthro-Jason must convince his royal sweetheart to forget the memory of... well... himself, and marry... uh... him, instead...

Meanwhile, on the pleasure moon of Eurydyce, this most befuddling royal family is turning up a few well-hidden secrets of its own. Not all is as it appears to benothing ever is with these Great Djinnand it's up to a couple of crafty royal matriarchs to solve a murder and make sure a certain dastardly individual gets his due.

You'll find plenty of romance, intrigue and tongue-in-cheek humor in this second installment of the Great Djinn series. The original cast is back, joined by a new face or two, and of course Grievous, the former British mercenary, is still laugh-out-loud funny.

I just love Grievous.

Now if only the royal family could stay out of trouble long enough for the poor man to settle down...

Romantic Futuristic Excitement!
We drooled over Prince Djetthro-Jason before and now Rowena Cherry has written his story--one that was definitely worth the wait! In her typical fashion, Ms. Cherry combines sex, action, love, and adventure into one terrific story. Did I say sex? Whoowee! Princess Martia-Djulia is overlooked, underrated, but not underfed. Commander Jason has captured her heart and she refuses to give in to Emperor Tarrant-Arragon's demand that she marry Prince Djetthro-Jason. Meantime, Djetth, having had wild and crazy sex with her as Jason, is quite amenable to at least the bedsport part of the deal. Her curves drive him absolutely mad with desire. But he has to be patient--not his long suit. Patience isn't the princess's brother's long suit, either. When Djetth doesn't make progress convincing the princess to mate with him, the emperor decides to shoot the two wayward lovers down on a deserted island. The couple has to resort to surviving on their wits--which is hard since they're both at their wits' end. Insufficient Mating Material is a sexy, funny adventure story, and informative, too. I had a great time reading this book. Ms. Cherry has written a great follow-up to Forced Mate and Mating Net that won't disappoint either her fans or her new readers. IMM is a stand-alone book. You don't have to read the previous book and novella to have a great reading experience. But I'll bet you'll want to read her other books once you've read this one. Three cheers for Rowena Cherry!

Insufficient Mating Material
I simply loved Ms Cherrys first book FORCED MATE and couldnt wait until the sequels release INSUFFICIENT MATING MATERIAL. It was well worth the wait. I couldnt put it down. If you enjoy a book filled with adventure and great characters then pick this one up.
