Synopsis

An Adult Romantic Comedy about Gender Stereotypes.

Alan Maitland is a successful businessman on his way up the corporate ladder. Life is good, but full of the unexpected. When a scientific experiment goes awry, Alan’s mind is transferred into the body of Hana Toussaint, a high-class escort.

Suddenly, he must contend not only with a new identity, but with the eye-opening reality of living as a female: how to walk in high heels without falling, how to put on a bra without dislocating a shoulder, how to apply makeup without poking out an eye, and how to survive in a society that remains decidedly male-dominated.

When Alan discovers that Hana has simultaneously taken over his body, the two of them must work together to find the scientist who can reverse the experiment and restore their respective lives. Along the way, they must cope with living as each other and learn exactly what it's like on the other side of the gender divide. But as their comedic adventure continues, Alan the woman must figure out his growing feelings for Hana the man.

Alan faces the biggest challenge of his life, which Hana sums up with one decisive question:

"Are you man enough to be a woman?"

À propos de l'auteur

William Quincy Belle is just a guy. Nobody famous; nobody rich; just some guy who likes to periodically add his two cents worth with the hope, accounting for inflation, that $0.02 is not over evaluating his contribution. He claims that at the heart of the writing process is some sort of (psychotic) urge to put it down on paper and likes to recite the following, which so far he hasn't been able to attribute to anyone: "A writer is an egomaniac with low self-esteem." You will find Mr. Belle's unbridled stream of consciousness floating around in cyberspace.
