The first book in the series is plot and world building, but I still enjoy it. Love triangle between vampire-werewolf is fun even though you can tell who Dina is going to choose.

I loved this book, the warmth of the writing and the way you completely adore Dina, the Innkeeper, immediately!
As a setup for a series it's so good, the humour around the werewolf Sean and Arland the Vampire (I'm never going to forget reading about a hunky vampire, drunk on coffee, running naked through the apple orchard) is really good, how they come together to fight but snipe like an old married couple.
And in the middle of all this alphaness is Dina, with the power her position and her Inn affords her. You fall in love with her Inn: Gertrude Hunt, you wonder what happened to her family and you become invested very quickly.
A beautiful read and so much fun.
