Free Twin Deception: A BWWM Billionaire Romance by Izabella Brooks

“He was in a car accident. He’s not badly hurt, but someone recognized him from the news stories from all those years ago as Connor Pearson. The weirdest part is that he has no memory of who is he. He said his name was William Ryan.”
                  “What?” Sadi felt like her head was going to explode.
                  “The doctors think he has memory loss from the bombing three years ago, and that he has been alive and well this whole time, but that he had no memory of who he was, which is why he didn’t come home or try and contact me all this time. He’s been living life as someone else entirely.”
                  “Wouldn’t someone have recognized him years ago and told him who he was?”
                  “I guess he says that he was stumbling around the area, unharmed. He had no memory of being in the building or in the blast. His first memory was finding himself outside, dirty but unhurt.
            He assumed he had been walking by when the blast went off, which maybe he was. I wasn’t sure he was even in the building when it happened. I don’t know how he’s been living and surviving or where he got that name and ID. God none of this makes sense.” Luke put his face over his hands and sighed long and deep, totally frustrated.
                    Sadi could tell he was trying to keep it together so he didn’t scare his son, who was watching his father intently.
                  “What am I supposed to do with him now, Sadi? I saw him this morning and it freaked him out. He understands that we’re twins. We look so damn alike he had to believe me. But other than that…Sadi, I sold his house and everything off after we thought he was… gone.”
                  Sadi placed a hand on Luke’s back. Her head was spinning. How could this be real? After all that time, Luke’s intuition had been correct. His brother was alive. But what did that mean for them now?
                  “He’s welcome to stay with us,” Sadi whispered, “until everything gets figured out.”
    Luke smiled at Sadi. It was an unsure smile, shadowed with doubts and something else… fear? Sadi couldn’t imagine what Luke was going through right now. They had a daunting task ahead of them. His brother was alive but Connor didn’t even know he had a brother. He didn’t know Luke at all.
                    Sadi placed her hand in Luke’s. “We’ve got through everything else Luke, and we’ll get through this.”
                  Luke glanced at Sadi, his eyes deep pools of sorrow. It actually scared Sadi because, despite everything, she thought Luke would be happy to see his brother.
                  “I hope so, Sadi, I really hope so.”
     
                  “Wow, this place is huge,” Connor whistled after the tour of Luke and Sadi’s home. A home he had been in countless times before but couldn’t remember.
                    Sadi gave a shaky smile when Luke didn’t say anything. He had gone to pick up Connor, who was being discharged from the hospital. Sadi had waited at home with the kids. She was nervous about Connor coming to stay with them, but it was nothing compared to how Luke had been acting the past couple days.
                    He had taken two weeks off work to try and help Connor get comfortable at the house, but he had acted like a caged animal until his brother had been discharged.
                  Sadi had hoped the strange behaviour would stop after Connor arrived at the house but it only got worse. Luke was fidgety throughout the tour of the house. He watched Connor like a hawk, almost as if he could no longer trust the brother he grew up with.
                  “Luke,” Sadi finally said. “Maybe you could sit down and tell Connor a little bit about the company or
