[LMB] (chat) Miles in Love cover -- first look

[alayne at twobikes.ottawa.on.ca]

I like the Ekaterin (does she need the high Victorian neckline, tho? 
Wouldn't a plain round neckline be more Barrayaran?). 

I can (um) imagine the male as Miles.

But something about the colour scheme -- perhaps the magenta and red in 
the background -- screams "comic-style fake" at me. And definitely not 
romantic. It doesn't work for me.

(OTOH, there are no battle nighties.)

Sorry ... Alayne
