chops with a salad on the ready if one of them was a vegetarian or vegan. He entertained often; he didn’t know why he felt so nervous tonight. The doorbell rang. He opened it to find a double vision of beauty. Each of the ladies clearly had their own style, but both looked fantastic. Too bad he couldn’t remember which sister was which.
    “We brought wine.” The sister in the stunning red halter dress held up the bottle.
    “Thank you. Come in ladies.”
    “Summer has something to say.”
    Ah. Red halter dress, Autumn. Chic and reserved jean dress just hitting the knee, Summer.
    “I’m sorry I was abrasive earlier. My sister inherited the social skills and diplomacy. Thank you for inviting us to dinner. Everything looks so delicious. This is for you.” She thrust the bag at him.
    Bo reached into the bag to see what kind of peace offering the feisty Summer had conjured up. It was the N-Genius III, the latest version of the hottest gaming console on the market. Luke, Seth, and Tyler’s manager had been able to snag one for each of them, but it wasn’t due out to the public for another six months.
    “Thank you.” He perused the game titles.
    “You’re welcome.”
    “You usually give out gaming consoles that aren’t on the market yet as an apology?”
    “I work for the company,” Summer blurted out.
    “My sister is being very modest. We own NuWave Gaming.” Autumn beamed.
    “Cool.” Bo smiled.
    “How long have you lived here?”
    “Three years in July. It’s a lovely building. The staff is nice. Some of the neighbors are a little eccentric, but not completely crazy. There’s a scientist on the second floor who will only leave his place on the half hour. There’s a couple on the sixth floor who keep getting reprimanded for having sex on the rooftop lounge. Word of caution, just knock on the door real loud before you go outside. It usually startles them. Mrs. Wilson on the ninth floor likes to go swimming in the pool naked.”
    “She sounds like a free spirit,” Summer replied.
    “She’s also eighty-six,” he added. “I hope you’re hungry. I made grilled lamb chops, sautéed Brussels sprouts, and a beet salad.”
    “Wow. It sounds good, but I hope you didn’t go through a lot of trouble,” Autumn replied.
    “No trouble at all. Let’s eat, ladies.”
    Bo enjoyed hearing more about NuWave Gaming during dinner; unfortunately the wrong sister was telling him all about it. Autumn went on about the company while Summer nibbled on the food. He totally got the geeky vibe coming from her because he’d been there himself. Autumn dazzled and shined while Summer was shy and only talked when necessary.
    “So Bo, what do you do for a living?” Summer asked.
    “I’m CFO of Blake Enterprises. It’s—”
    “We’ve heard of it.” Autumn dabbed the corner of her lips with her napkin. “The Blake family owns most of Texas.”
    “It was voted best company to work for in Dallas five years in a row,” Summer chimed in. “Which is no surprise since your business model focuses on the value of strengthening core relationships between business partners, customers, and staff. Not to mention the rate of return on the expenditure of training and aggressive tuition reimbursement for employees to allow them advancement opportunities.”
    “What?” Autumn said.
    Summer cleared her throat. “They treat their employees really nice and pay them well.”
    Bo blinked. Summer had just summed up the company in a few words.
    “See, I told you he wasn’t a serial killer.” Autumn stuck her tongue out at her sister.
    Bo got a chuckle out of Autumn’s statement, which took Summer by surprise. Unfortunately she had just put a forkful of food in her mouth. Summer began to clutch at her throat and gasp for breath while holding her hand out and motioning for everyone to stay away. It was ridiculous to sit there while she figured out how to administer first aid to herself. Bo pulled her out of the chair and pushed it
