The Distiller’s
Darling
By Rebecca Norinne
& Jamaila Brinkley
“He was never going
to be the best-looking lad in the room, but he had something no other man here
did: and Irish accent.”
Oh. My God. Iain and
his whisky and his beard. Need I say more? Well, I will anyways.
When I started this
book I was afraid Naomi’s commitment issues were going to push me away right
along with Iain, but Norinne/Brinkley surprised me with the likeability of
their main character. She is sharp, career oriented, her career is in art, AND
she’s got mommy-issues.
With all that on her plate, she was still a
badass leading-lady—but with a heart of stone.
Iain shared Naomi’s desire
for a no strings attached fling—he was only going to be in the states for two
months. At least, that was the plan.
“Sixty days…that’s all.
After that, I’ll be gone. And then years from now you can sit around with your
girlfriends, drinking a bottle of Noah’s wine, gossiping about the sexy
Irishman who made you come like no one ever had before. Or since.”
I LOVED watching
these two warm up to one another as I dove deeper and deeper into the pages. Their
resistance to all things relationship made their interactions feel even more special
and steamy.
“You can have your
own life and still have other people in it, Naomi. You don’t have to be all
alone to be successful.”
Norinne &
Brinkley hit the nail on the head with this charming romance. The characters
are witty & sharp, the whiskey is strong & smooth, and I stayed up late
into the night devouring this book.
Thank you to Inkslinger
