If it hadn’t been for the prologue drawing me into this story, I might have quit reading it. The first half of The Outpost seemed long, slow, and at time torturous. I didn’t connect with the characters and had to force myself to keep going because I was sure it would get better (and I wanted to know why she’d left ‘him’ if the months spent with him were so life-altering. I am glad I stuck it out, the last half of the book did redeem the first, although the rough start did affect my rating.The Outpost is the Fourth in Devney Perry’s Jamison Valley series, although it can be read as a stand-alone. I haven’t read any of the books in the series, and I never felt lost in this book. There are a couple of characters I’d like to know more about, so I will likely pick up the previous books and read the series in its entirety, though. It is told in dual POV, Sabrina and Beau’s, but more of the book is told from Sabrina’s viewpoint than Beau’s
While I did feel empathetic toward Sabrina, I had a hard time connecting with her. It was definitely a ‘me’ thing, as I don’t think she was poorly written. It just seemed to me like a lot of who she was, in the beginning, was so superficial I think I wrote her off from that point forward. There were times she seemed too wrapped up in what her life used to look like to understand where her life was heading in the present. All in all, Sabrina was just a character I found difficult to relate to.
Beau was very much the opposite, and I desperately wish we would have had more scenes in his POV. He was such a quintessential ‘good guy’ and seemed to be a straight shooter; I think it would have been easier for me to connect with the book if I were in his head more often.
The Outpost did keep me on my toes for a good portion of the novel. There was a constant looming threat in the background and other moments of suspense thrown in to keep things interesting. Most of the on page happened in the final half of the book which helped me to enjoy the overall experience. I loved the glimpse of the other couples and tertiary characters; those scenes made me feel like I need to go back and read their stories too.
My wish for this book is just that the beginning of the book be more attention-grabbing. It started with a few big bangs and then fizzled for several chapters, that huge change in pace - while important for the character - was not great for the pacing of the novel. I also would have liked Sabrina to have been a more sympathetic character. While I did feel sympathy for her situation, I didn’t feel it for her as a whole.
Devney Perry is a new to me author. I’ve had several friends suggest her books since The Coppersmith Farmhouse was released, I just hadn’t taken the time to read them. After reading The Outpost, despite the slow beginning, I do see myself checking out her backlist. Her writing was good, and I enjoyed the journey she took me on. The fact she made me feel so much for secondary characters shows how good she is at drawing in her readers.

The Outpost Jamison Valley Book 4 edition by Devney Perry Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I love this author and this series.
The Outpost is Beau and Sabrina’s story. It picks up where it left off in The Lucky Heart.
Sabrina, an investigative reporter from Seattle, has gotten herself into a bit of trouble with her latest story. Not only does she show up at Silas and Felicity’s Montana ranch seriously injured, but she’s running from the Russian mob. She needs to hide out while the evidence she’s collected puts them away.
Her only option is to be shuttled off to an out of the way, forest service outpost while she waits for things back in Seattle to cool down.
Sabrina is the last thing Beau needs to add to his list of responsibilities. But that’s the person he is, the go to guy. The guy who will drop everything and give his all. And spending time with Sabrina will not be a hardship. He just has to remember to do his job, and not lose his heart along the way.
Both Sabrina and Beau fight the attraction they feel for each other. Beau loves his mountains, his job and his family in his small Montana town. Sabrina is a city girl. She loves her fast paced city life, her exciting job, take out delivered right to her door, and wine nights with her friends. Two completely different lives, two completely different worlds. Neither willing to give up what they have, no matter what their hearts are telling them.
I loved these two characters.
I loved watching Sabrina’s growth. Seeing her become a much more tolerant person. Being forced way out of her comfort zone was the best thing that could have happened to her. It made her a better woman, and opened up a new way for her to express herself.
Beau also learned to step a bit out of his comfort zone in dealing with Sabrina. He becomes very protective and possessive of her, in a way he never had with any other woman before. It makes him do a lot of thinking and helps him make some very difficult decisions. Decisions that could change life as he knows it.
This was a great story, well written with real characters. Characters with real issues and real, sometimes heartbreaking decisions. It’s told in dual points of view. There is no cheating, some drama, and a happy ending. I loved their epilogue.
While this book picks up where the last one leaves off, it’s not necessary to read the previous book. All of the books in the series can be read as standalones. (But they make a much more complete story if you have read the earlier books. They’re all great)
Another great addition to this series. My favorite one so far. This book features Beau (who is a minor player in the previous books) and Sabrina (who we briefly meet in The Lucky Heart.) She is in danger from the Russian Mob back in Seattle. With no where else to turn to, she goes to her best friend, Felicity (who is featured in The Lucky Heart) in Montana. Beau volunteers to take her up into the mountains to hide out. Totally out of her element in nature, she leans on Beau for a lot, and eventually they form a bond. But his life is in Montana and her's is in Seattle, so they are enjoying each other as much as they can before it is deemed safe enough for her to return home and they are forced to part ways.
The characters are well developed. Unlike many romances, this Hero doesn't have any issues or demons he's dealing with. He does work too hard and puts everyone else before himself, but that is the only thing that the Heroine can really fault him for. The Heroine has a few personal battles she's fighting. Besides her current safety worries, she has some emotional scars from her youth that needs to heal. As well as her self loathing for the things she's done for her job (as a investigative reporter.) This book pretty much just features the h/H as they are hiding out in a seclusive cabin in the woods, but we do get some glimpses of old familiar faces and a few new ones.
The timeline for this book overlaps book three, as it begins before book three ends. Though it can be read as a stand alone without much confusion. There is some mild violence. Nothing too graphic. There is some sexual content and some mild language. It alternates between POV's. The story is well written with a few emotional scenes, a few humorous ones as well.
