I think overall, I liked this one but I feel like both characters lacked a little bit of depth. Which was a let down, because both had some trauma that was brought up on page but it didn't seem to add much to how their relationship developed or it impacted them. Owen lost his dad in college and his POV talked a lot about how close he was with his family, but he never actually talked to them on page until the distillery opening. Delia had been in an imbalanced relationship with a professor during college and it obviously affected how she saw relationships in her adult life, but she fell for Owen pretty quickly regardless. The slow burn aspect worked for me and once they finally caved, they had great chemistry in the bedroom. I feel like this just wasn't my favorite.
