Savor You (Fusion #5)(71)



“I’ve heard that some twins make up their own language,” Kat says. “That’s fascinating.”

“They stare at me while they speak to each other in a language I don’t understand.”

“Okay, that’s creepy,” Addie says. “But they’re so damn cute.”

“And they have us all wrapped around their little fingers,” I agree. “If we could get them to start speaking English, we’d be golden.”

“What does Camden think?”

“He laughs it off. Camden is so laid back, very little riles him up. Which is good because he’s married to me, and I’m not exactly the definition of laid back.”

“True,” Addie says, earning a glare from me. She smiles angelically. “How did things go in New York last week?”

“Actually, not horrible.” In the past few years, we’ve expanded the Seduction restaurants all over the United States, with Europe on the horizon. There are currently eight locations, with the most recent being New York. “The location is amazing, right down in Times Square. The chefs are great, of course. I mean, we’re a successful, nichey restaurant. Who doesn’t want to work for us?”

“That one guy in London wasn’t excited about it,” Addie reminds me, but I blow that off.

“His loss. We’ll find someone else for London.”

“I can’t even believe we’re expanding to Europe,” Cami says, shaking her head. “Remember where we started? We wanted our one tiny location in Portland to not bankrupt us.”

“And now here we are, seven years later, with a billion-dollar business.” Riley raises her glass in a toast. “We’re pretty fucking amazing, ladies.”

“Hear, hear,” I reply and clink my glass to hers.

“But at the end of the day,” Kat reminds us, “not only do we have a successful business, but we’ve managed to stay friends too. And that’s rare, you guys. I love you. Each of you. That’s more important that the restaurants, the money, any of it.”

“Of course,” I add as the others nod. “As long as we have each other, there’s not anything we can’t do.”

“Including Europe,” Addie says with a grin. “They won’t know what hit them.”
