by Alice Gaines In the early days of the psychoanalytic movement, an idealistic, young psychologist named Klaus Mannhof became a disciple of first Sigmund Freud and then Carl Jung. After a while, Klaus became dissatisfied with psychoanalysis because of its failure to address and understand the needs of women. However, he became intrigued with the archetype Anima - the internal female. After much study, he became convinced that Anima wasn't just a part of the collective unconscious but was an actual, living being. He spent decades tracking her down until he finally found her home in a cave in France.

In order to gain entry to Anima's inner sanctum, Klaus asked, "Anima, how may I best serve women?"

Pleased with his earnestness, Anima rewarded Klaus with eternal life and the ability to make shapeshifting motorcycles that are also men - each designed for one special woman.

One Owner, Lady Driven is the first story in the Mannhof series. http://www.changelingpress.com/product.php?&upt=book&ubid=525

Why would a normally sane woman pay a million dollars for a motorcycle? Hard-driving CEO Claire Wilcox has found the bike of her dreams -- a 1957 Mannhof four-cylinder touring motorcycle.

Little does she know that the cycle's designer made each of these beauties for one person only. The Mannhof is sentient -- and he has the ability to take on human form. He was designed with purpose, and he's on a mission -- he's here to heal Claire's wounded soul. If she'll let him.

Here's what reviewers have said about One Owner, Lady Driven.

"5 Stars! One Owner, Lady Driven is a brilliant novella that is a must for anyone looking for something completely out of the ordinary. You'll surely be keeping this book, and rereading it again and again." - Elizabeth Marie, Just Erotic Romance Reviews

"The sex is hot, the creative talents of the author undeniable, and the story is a great read." - Romance Reviews Today

"The plot is riveting and the sensuality exciting without being over the top. One Owner, Lady Driven is a true winner, the kind of short story that readers will turn to for a reread again and again with pleasure." - Annie

Because One Owner, Lady Driven was so well received, I've decided to make the story the first in a series of shapeshifting motorcycles. Each cycle will also be a sexy man created especially for one woman. The second novella, Driven to the Limit, tells the story of Lauren King and the Mannhof motorcycle she calls Jake. After years of working for deranged rock star, Kid Dagger, Lauren has come to believe that the outside world holds no hope for her. Little does she know that Dagger's antique, German motorcycle was actually created to free her and teach her how to love. Jake has an uphill struggle to get past Lauren's cynicism, but his sensuality is a powerful tool.

Driven to the Limit will be released by Changeling Press at the end of June.
