This is the first release by this author, and it definitely has potential! I loved the descriptions of Beau when he was in his other form, as well as the connection he has with the land. These two were perfectly paired, with neither of them willing to push past the other's boundaries, but also not being shy about stating that they wanted more.
There were a few things that irritated me though. The first was Jake's bank account and inheritance. His abusive ex drains them and nothing is done about it?! Seriously?! Jake tells us how he has nothing, but he won't even file a report to 'try' and get HIS money back? And the whole 'I'm breaking up with you for your own good, even though I love you' trope is never a good one. Some of the conversations between characters were repeated in different parts of the story. And the final thing is the sheer silliness of Beau and Jake not considering anyone would come to the farm, when they've got hard evidence that people have, and they have even spotted them before. The assumption that the farm is safe, when they know it's not, causes more than one problem!
A good debut novel by this author. I would definitely be interested in continuing with the series, both for the characters and also to see how her craft develops.
** Same worded review will appear elsewhere. **
