Clint knew meeting the older brother was a big deal to Jordana so he wanted to be on his best behavior, but as it turned out Ty was a cool guy and he liked him immediately.

“Flight good?”

“As good as can be expected with only peanuts to chew on for the long flight,” Ty grumbled. “According to my dad’s business partner, Dex, they used to offer full-course meals on long flights. When did that stop? Jordana said something about deep-dish pizza. You know a good place?”

“Do I know a good place?” Clint repeated with a big grin. “I know of the place to get the best deep dish and I insist that you let me take you.”

He caught the subtle roll of Jordana’s eyes because she knew he was trying to make a good impression, but he also sensed that she appreciated his effort so he wasn’t about to stop.

“Luigi’s, owned and operated by the same family since the 1930s, emigrated from Italy and brought all their culinary secrets with them. One bite from a Luigi’s pizza and you’ll wonder how you survived without it.”

“Sounds like a moral imperative that I find out for myself if the claim is true,” Ty said dryly. “But you honestly had me at family owned and operated. Any business that can survive working with family must be doing something right.”

Jordana excused herself to freshen up before dinner and that gave Clint an opportunity to talk frankly with Ty.

“I really appreciate you coming out here to put Jordana’s fears at ease. She’s been wound up pretty tight about this whole situation.”

“I agree with her,” Ty said, surprising Clint. “Look, my sister has some killer instincts, and if she says something isn’t right, I’d listen.”

“It’s not that I’m not listening, but the odds of all this being connected seem astronomical.”

“Not really if you think about it. First and foremost, we’re going to dig into your associates. Money is a big motivator for foul play. We will need to clear all the people closest to you before we can widen the circle.”

“Jordana said the same. She’s mentioned concerns about my business partner, Alex Locke, but I really can’t see him doing something like this. We’ve known each other for years and created the company from scratch together. Aside from business partners, we’re friends. He’d never do something like that to me.”

Ty looked sorry to be the bearer of bad news. “In my experience, it’s always the person you least expect who’s screwing you over. Jordana said you also have an assistant?”

“Yeah, Jeana, but she’s been my rock through this. When you meet her, you’ll understand, there’s no way it could be her.”

Ty nodded but kept his judgment to himself. Jordana reappeared from the bedroom and Ty clapped his hands together, ready to eat. “I can practically taste that melting cheese already. Let’s do this. I can’t think on an empty stomach.”

“Bring your credit card—my brother can eat twice his weight in food. Mom used to always say that Ty was going to eat her out of house and home.
