Summary
Feeling the need to contribute to post-war galactic civilization, Castis Vakarian rejoins C-Sec after the war, and his daughter eventually talks him into trying to date again. He doesn’t have much luck until he has a chance encounter with a human woman. If his son wasn’t involved with the most famous human woman in the galaxy, Castis probably wouldn’t have looked twice at Hannah. He ends up quite glad he did, even if it turns out far more complicated than he could have thought possible.
