MEET THE FORTUNES!

Fortune of the Month: Gavin Fortunado

Age: 30

Vital Statistics: Simply irresistible.

Claim to Fame: This golden boy is a successful corporate attorney and the son of real estate mogul Kenneth Fortunado—and a bona fide Fortune to boot.

Romantic Prospects: Fantastic—just don’t ask him to commit. He recently convinced family friend and Fortunado Real Estate employee Christine Briscoe to be his temporary pretend girlfriend just to get his parents off his back. He’s too busy having fun to worry about marriage. Why is everyone so darned eager to see him settle down?

“This whole thing was a lark. Christine was going to be my ‘girl’ for just a few weeks while I was in Austin. It’s funny how easy it was to convince everyone we were a couple. She’s not the kind of woman I usually date.

“Why can’t we just be allowed to have fun? Why does everything have to have a label? And why can’t I stop thinking about her?
