Prompt: Book that includes a wedding
Virtual 12 sided dice roll: 10
A nice, short venture into the world of audiobooks! Miles and Ekaterin are getting married and Armsman Roic is trying desperately to do a good job and to hopefully counteract what he considers to be his poor showing the “the bug butter incident.“ Roic has never left Barrayar and is rather awed by the exotic guests showing up from Miles' past. He is given escort duty to Sgt. Taura, the large bioengineered mercenary, which is a strain for the shy man, especially going to the modiste to obtain a suitable wardrobe for her role in the wedding celebration.
Is it fate that keeps throwing Roic and Taura together? I suspect Miles may have something to do with it! I think he may have recognized the gleam in Roic's eye as he admired the formidable Taura.
What a pleasure to listen to this short, sweet little story where Roic and Taura together prevent a murder and a wedding disaster, all the while making eyes at one another. I can see myself reading a paper copy someday and I do wonder how well I will remember the details in the future, but it was just what I wanted this evening.
