First off, this verse is one of the best soulmate AUs I’ve come across, so it’s definitely worth your while to start from the beginning (see that bit where it says ‘Part 3′). But that aside, this story works so very well as a standalone that it’s not a must. (Except that you’re missing out on some Grade A storytelling and worldbuilding, but that’s your loss.)
But this particular story is a wonderful, finely-paced, summery slice-of-life in the Shire, flavoured with just the right amount of longing and mystery. I, for one, will be eagerly awaiting for what comes next, be it in the main storyline or the side-stories.
