Komarr (Vorkosigan Saga, #11)
by
by
4.5 stars for this romantic suspense set on planet Komarr, across the galaxy.
Eketarin Vorsoisson, Vor to the core, kicks asparagus, and not only that, she's tall, brunette, and coolly reserved, until her son is threatened. Miles is crazy about this fascinating widow, but she's done with men, after ten years with Tien the Twit.
See more in my review of the anthology Miles in Love (three books in one: Komarr, A Winter Campaign, and Winterfair Gifts).

"My goodness. You've met with an accident."
"It wasn't us. It was her. The bitch from hell. Or Barrayar, which is almost the same..."
Miles's eyes widened, and his lips parted in breathless anticipation. "Remarkable. Um...how?"
All three Komarrans tried to answer him at once...by which Miles slowly pieced together the most glorious mental picture he'd had all day. All year.
I'm in love. I'm in love. I just thought I was in love before. I must, I must, I must have this woman! Mine, mine, mine.

"This mind-melting mixture of lust and domesticity was entirely novel to him. Well, half novel; he knew how to handle lust. It was the domesticity that had ambushed his guard."

"Eketara saved the day, earning a few bruises along the way, and Miles is reeling with love for her, but that's only the beginning, right here at the end of Komarr. On to A Civil Campaign..."

My favorite quote (wording may not be exact): "He's not short. He's *concentrated*."

Yep! A good line, Joy. I found the exact quote: "A nice young man," observed Aunt Vorthys. "A pity he's so short.""He's not so short," said Eketarin defensively. "He's just...concentrated."
Hey thanks, Dd! Fun and romantic!
Glad you're still enjoying these Kathleen :))))
Yup! It's the oddest thing, Blacky. Never read this genre until this spring. I like space opera that's rich in character development and has some romance, at least in some books. By the way, I like your new avatar! So cute! (but not doomy at all)
