The Sisterhood Hyphen — Francine Thomas Howard

Three women embark on the trip of a lifetime. Three men learn what it means to love. Shy Elle Lytle, proper Leigh Hartwell and brash Olivia Baskins are traveling the world. A stop in Sengal challenges the women to not only rethink their identities, but their heritage as they spar and parry with the African born men they are attracted to. Richard Smythe-Phillips, Charles Dawud-Phillips and Abdou Dhanka understand what is both sad and great about Africa. As they pursue the women they are coming to love, they provide understanding into what makes Africa unique and beautiful. From the wilds of Africa to the exotic splendor of India and Hong Kong, the three couples struggle to understand their feelings and the bonds growing between them before realizing that some things are just meant to be.
