Lord Miles Vorkosigan, youngest Imperial Auditor to be appointed by the Emperor since the Time of Isolation, has a problem that all his new power can’t solve: unrequited love for the beautiful Vor widow Ekaterin Vorsoisson. Ekaterin is violently allergic to marriage as a result of her first exposure. But as Miles learned from his late career in galactic covert ops, if a frontal assault won’t do, go to subterfuge. Miles has a cunning plan, which, of course, has to be worked out in between District succession scandals and plans for the Emperor’s wedding. And if no battle plan survives first contact with the enemy, just imagine what all Miles’ friends and relatives can do to his romantic strategy.

Great continuance of the story
- Awesome title. Each time I hear a book in this line from Lois Bujold I want more. Miles, yet again, proves his snarky humor in this book. it also proves that the dwarf and his defunct "brother" can win with the right girl. If you love Miles, you'll love this one too! Only one last thing to say.... BUTTER BUGS!!!!
