I’ve known my dad’s business partners all my life. They were there during my wild teenage years, doing their best to keep me out of trouble. Now my dad wants me to go on a month-long road trip with them—just me and three older men—to teach me the family business. But the trip isn’t just about work. When we’re not stripping down old wrecks or attending car shows, the guys plan to court me. That’s right: all three of them want to marry me—at once! And their idea of courtship isn’t serenading and poetry. They want me in their bed every night. Though I have no intention of marrying them, I am down for some steamy nights on the road. Soul Sisters is a reverse-harem, age-gap romance filled with adventure, humor, love, tears, and sizzling-hot sex.

Every time I lose my virginity it’s different.

Sometimes it’s in a palace, and sometimes it’s in the dirt.

Sometimes I’m on top, and sometimes my face is buried in a pillow to muffle my screams.

Sometimes it hurts like hell, and sometimes it’s pure ecstasy.

But there’s one thing that stays the same, no matter what.

In every lifetime, you find me.

I always lose it to you...
