Free Double Attraction (Gemini Taboo Romance Series Book 1) by Lauren Branford Page A

kindly reminded the questioners that our lives split some time ago, and ever since then, I was nothing like my sister. Unfortunately, it was the only card I had left in my hand.
                  "I have an identical twin," I said calmly before taking in a large sip of red wine.
                  "A twin?" Gavin asked as he leaned back from the table. This seemed to spark his interest more that the luxurious restaurant setting. "What's her name?"
                  "Arianna," I said.
                  "Brea and Arianna," he grinned while looking into the corner of the room. "How was it growing up with a twin?" The questions had begun.
                  "Very difficult," I sighed. "I'm taking care of my sister right now after some... unfortunate things happened to her."
                  “Like what?” Gavin asked, plainly.
                  “Personal things,” I said while brushing my hair behind my ear.
                  "But you girls get along?" he asked.
                  "Not really," I admitted. "In fact, I think that she hates me."
                  "She hates you?" Gavin asked before taking a sip of his wine. I was starting to feel like my story was the true opera he had been waiting to see.
                  "Arianna is an interesting girl. She's trendy, particular, and very aggressive. So, as you can tell, my complete opposite."
                  "I see," Gavin said. "Is she married with kids?"
                  “My sister?” I laughed while nearly spitting my wine onto the pristine, white tablecloth. “No way.”
    “Then maybe you girls aren’t so different.”
    “Trust me, hell will have literally frozen over the day that Arianna gets married. She always seems to have a guy around– or two.”
    “And how do you like them? Good guys? Make a lot of money?”
    “No,” I said shaking my head. I could feel my blood boiling over the conversation. Thoughts of my sister always did that to me. “I’ll admit that some of them are slightly attractive in that biker sort of way. But Arianna enjoys the danger and these wild, muscular guys do it for her."
                  "You're not into guys with muscles?" Gavin asked with his eyebrows raised. I looked at his brawny biceps protruding from his designer shirt. Then I rested my hand on his forearm.
                  "I didn't mean it that way," I said, suddenly shocked that I was touching Gavin. It had been three dates, and this was our first time touching. "You are exactly my type."
                  "Good," he said while putting his hand over mine. I felt his thumb brushing against mine in an even rhythm. "To be honest, I find you very attractive."
                  "You do?" I asked. It felt very surprising that this handsome and wealthy man would have sought a bookish girl like me. If I didn't work for his father's company, chances are that our social circles would never have collided. Suddenly, someone was standing over my shoulder.
                  "The lobster ravioli," said the waiter as he placed the plate in front of me. "And the beef bolognese... Anything else that I can do for you? Pepper? Parmesan?"
                  "That's all for us," said Gavin as he nodded to the waiter. "Thank you."
                  "How do you like working for your father?" I asked Gavin.
    "That old man?" he joked. "Well, you know how demanding he can be. But that's boring stuff, tell me more about you and your twin."
    "There's nothing more to say really." This wasn’t the truth. I could have gone on all night griping about Arianna. However, I didn’t want her to ruin another evening.
    "How long has she been living with you?"
    "Six months. When I moved to Angora Hills, I offered to have her come stay with me. She was getting on my mother’s nerves, and it was best that all of
