Fallow Till We Bloom by Nikki Null

TWIN PEAKS meets STARDEW VALLEY in this stunning queer small-town farmyard romance. "Never talk about the Dark Watchers..." Robyn Fields first saw the ghostly shadows after arriving at her grandfather's farm. By the time she arrived, grandpa was dead and the farm had burned down. Villagers whisper that the cryptids atop the foggy foothills must have been involved. Local vineyard heir Ash Grantor has seen them for decades without incident. Bottling himself up worked out just fine, until he got disinherited and lost everything. After Robyn invites Ash and his friends to live on the farm, long repressed feelings bubble up to the surface as the Watchers draw ever nearer. It's said that the Dark Watchers are drawn to big secrets, and that they had something to do with the old farmer's mysterious death. To save the farm and avoid that strange and haunting fate, Ash and Robyn must cast secrets aside and bloom together...
