Chloe is rich, and hot, and fits right into the perfect life Marcel inherited when their father left Amir's mother to start a new family with Marcel's mom. But Chloe is hot enough for Amir to forget that for one night. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDoes she want to hook up? Or is she trying to meddle in the estranged brothers' messy family drama? Amir can't tell.
