Is on-again / off-again boyfriend Brooks Ayers finally kicking the dust? After years of a tumultuous relationship, it looks like Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki Gunvalson, 52, officially gave him the pink slip in favor of lawyer John Pankauski.

Apparently, Gunvalson has been snapped around town with her alleged new man according to Tuesday's Radar Online.

After Gunvalson and Ayers broke up, made up (a decision Gunvalson's daughter was not too happy with), and then apparently broke up again, she has been spotted with John Pankauski, a New York City attorney. Radar has exclusive photos of them at a Bravo event, and cozied up over coffee.

So what's brewing?

"Vicki met John when he was meeting with her production company Woo Hoo in April and she had dinner with him and brought him to a Watch What Happens Live taping," a source close to the scoop revealed to Radar.

"They are working together on a few business projects, but there are sparks flying between them. . . He built a multi-million dollar law firm which he owns - and has a winery in Napa Valley."

Money is not the only thing that makes this "rascal" attractive:

"John is single, 6'2", 200 lbs, an athlete and avid tennis player. He has handsome movie star good looks and he's a rascal too. He is a warrior and a fierce lawyer."

So while sparks are flying, business is also burgeoning. Pankauski asked Gunvalson's Woo Hoo to film the promo for his law firm, and a reel for a new potential TV show starring Pankauski. He wants Gunvalson to be the executive producer. Woo Hoo is already pitching two TV shows around town owned by Gunvalson.

Reportedly, Pankauski is also taking Gunvalson on the road to a Women's Expo in Phoenix, Arizona, late April.
