From the author of Bohemian Law and Bohemian Mark comes the highly anticipated third installment in the standalone Traveler Series, Bohemian Patience. While there are interconnecting characters, this book can be read as a standalone.Being a gypsy means going into an arranged marriage. My siblings fought against it, but not me. Having a woman who was raised to be a wife, a mother, and warm body … a wife, a mother, and warm body for me to sink into?
Sounded good to me.
Unfortunately, my new wife is not what I expected.
She’s mouthy, bratty, and gets on my last nerve.
But I’m no quitter and I’m not afraid to put in the work.
So, I romanced my wife. I gave her time and space. I had patience.
I realized she was fighting a much bigger battle than I had even known.
She’s spent her life being told she’s evil and cursed.
That’s not who she is.
She’s beautiful, smart, and has big dreams.
She’s more than a bride to be sold off. More than a prize to be won.
Now, more than ever, I’m determined to be her champion.
The only thing she wants is freedom.
And now that she has it, will she choose me?

From Fredom to Patience
This was a light read with an enemies to lovers kind of vibe, I loved the way their story was intertwined by faith.
For anyone new to the series I may urge you to start with book one, it will hook you to stay, while it also opens you to this world with a family as one by one finds their soulmates, in book 3 the romance was beautifully written as the our heroine finds fredom in his patience, I just loved this story I highly recommend as a must thou I did cry at the ending so be warned with the Kleenex ready.
What’s not to love about Freedom & Essie. Two people brought up in a way of life that not everyone would understand but they definitely will find out that being different is not bad.
Freedom is a young man whose life basically has been mapped out for him and even though his siblings have gone out and changed their lives he feels that the life he knows has brought him Essie.
Essie has always felt like the outcast in her family but when she is introduced to Freedom she never felt more like a queen and he will do whatever it takes to make her believe that they were meant to be.
Watching Freedom & Essie having people who support and love them from Freedom’s siblings and Essie’s Mami Nothing is going to stop them.
Flat out love this this series! Bohemian Patience is just as fabulous as the previous two books in the Traveler series. Misty Walker has brought to us a colorful, cultural life of gypsies in each book. Each book painting us a different couple with their own kind of love story.
Freedom and Essie’s story was perfectly written and I hated to see the book end. I loved how their relationship grew from acquaintances to friends to lovers to soul mates! Their story wonderfully told and not rushed. The author took the time to let the emotions flow through each page. If you wanted to read a perfect love story, Bohemian Patience IS IT!!!
Not enough stars for how much I loved this book and this series!!! It is definitely in my top 10 of 2020!
Its official. Misty Walker is completely underrated. Even though she is a sort of new author, I absolutely believe she will be one of my favorites.
I LOVED Essie and Freedom! So so so much! I laughed throughout the whole book. Talked to myself. Caught myself smiling like a loon more than ever. Freedom was droolworthy. He definitely had the PATIENCE of a saint. I loved the guessing game of Essie’s real name. I laughed every single time. Essie was so strong. She keeps people at arms length because she dont trust anyone. And with good reasoning. Her family (besides Mami) are real pieces of work. Freedom was exactly what she needed and seeing her come out of her shell with him was AMAZING. I absolutely positively fell in love with Essie and Freedoms love. Watching them slowly fall melted me. Holey moley 5 stars
Really sweet story!
I absolutely loved this story. It was super sweet and oozing with so much love that I could not put it down once I started. Freedom and Essie are gypsies that are forced into an arranged marriage. Essie does not take this well as she is feisty, fierce and very independent. She does not want any man to tell her what to do. Freedom is exactly what she needs. He’s laid back, not demanding at all and super sweet with a heart of gold. Exactly the right combination to tame Essie’s wild heart.
This story was captivating and highly entertaining to read. There were many times I laughed out loud and other times when I could have smashed my kindle. Essie was a bit of a brat sometimes and I became very frustrated with her. But in the end I couldn’t be happier on how their story turned out.
Highly recommend.
I love the back and forth and undercurrent of hot chemistry that comes with these two characters not “choosing” each other but being entered into an arranged marriage. I love the fight and fire!
Freedom is all man AND he’s also thoughtful, smart and kind. He’s not a doormat by any means. He can stand up and lay down the law when needed.
Essie is clever, prickly, independent and a bit rebellious. I loved uncovering her past and understanding why she was that way.
The two of them together are smoking hot and extremely entertaining! Great chemistry and heated arguments make this an exciting and fun arranged marriage romance in the very interesting and unique Romani/gypsy culture.
I felt for their struggles, laughed at their stubbornness and felt so happy when they had triumphs.
Secondary characters are incredible. Most have been in previous books in the series.(I recommend reading these in order for full enjoyment)
Mami was a new character, Essie’s grandma and she is so wise, lovable and irreverent. She’s incredible!Love her! She added so much to the story.
I love that the main characters aren’t stereotypical romance characters and I love their journey. Definitely recommend it!!
This was a quite simple book for me. The story line of the book was borderline sweet and the characters were perfect in their roles. This was the first book I have read by Misty walker and I must say that I am impressed.
Freedom was the perfect hero of a book. He was everything in one hot package. His kindness and thoughtfulness were the things that I found the most attractive things about him. The moment he meets Essie, he knows he has found his match.
, . ’ . ’ .

Essie was a bit complicated character. From her childhood she had been told that she had a dark soul and her only saving grace was her grandmother who kept her pretty much secluded from the outside world. When she meets Freedom, she knows that this her chance to escape her prison and both of them embark on a journey filled with love and passion. The humorous parts of the book made me laugh so hard.
I am going to keep this review short and sweet and will just recommend this to all the contemporary romance lovers !!!
What an Amazing book!!! This book, just like all the other books in this series, is so good, and I feel like I’m in this Gypsy world with them. Essie and Freedom are one of my top Favorite couples this year!! Freedom is a young gypsy guy, who’s father has arranged for him to be married. He doesn’t mind he’s ready to settle down have someone to come home to at night. He thinks it’s going to be easy for him. Little does he know he’s future wife is anything but easy. Essie is full of sass, she’s stubborn, and he’s more than happy to take on the challenge. She thinks it’s just a temporary arrangement, but he’s not ever letting her go. The more time they spend, the closer they get sparks fly, and the chemistry is off the charts between them. This book is just everything a book should be. You will feel every emotion with it. I need more of this Gypsy World Misty has created. I love it so much!!!! Also, let’s talk about Mami. I LOVED her so much she had me laughing so hard!!!! I want a Grandma like Mami. This book is a 5 Star book that everyone needs to read!!!
Plane and simple: I loved it.
For me, Bohemian Patience is one of those books, you don’t want to finish, and once you got to the end, you keep looking for more, because you fell in love with these characters and you just don’t want to let go of them yet. It was a fun, hot, sweet story, with entertaining, lovable characters.
I love Misty’s Traveler world, and I was quite impatient to read Freedom’s story, which is kind of ironic considering the title, lol. Freedom was the quiet one in his family, he was the uncomplicated one, who was content living a simple life, a genuine good guy.
Essie is smart, seems tough in the outside, when in fact she is sweet and vulnerable in the inside, and even though she feels the intense connection between her and Freedom, she needs time to let him get close to her.
They start off in an arranged marriage situation, which is a common thing in the gypsy world, and by the end, it turns out was their destiny. It’s the most perfect thing that could happen to them. They fell easily and quickly for each other. I loved the way Freedom cherished, supported, and protected Essie from the beginning, how he was set on making her dreams come true, .. which was exactly what Essie needed in order to open up and let Freedom see how beautiful she truly is. She didn’t have any other choice but love him madly. Together they are sweet, and hot, explosively dirty and kinky.
Also I can not forget about the side characters, Freedom’s sibling, who are always a source of entertainment, and Mami of course. She is the sweetest, funkiest grandma ever.
Can’t wait to see what’s up next in this bohemian world.
I’m officially naming this author as my favorite new author is 2020. This book is such the perfect addition to this crazy band of gypsies. I love that Essie and Freedom were both fully immersed in the lifestyle because it gave me so much insight into how they function.
This author took us on a fun, emotional ride through reluctant love. This was a perfect arranged marriage book because while it steadily built-up their relationship, it was also so sexy. These two characters explore their way through so many firsts in the sexiest ways. I’m talking heavy petting, “am I doing it right?”, shy touches, and exploratory play.
I blew through this book, and can’t wait to read more from the fun, quirky book world.
A page turner was hooked from the start.
This is the third book in the traveller series and I have to say my favourite now.
Freedom has always followed along with the Romani gypsy style life he works hard looks out for his family and will do whatever it takes to make that happen.
His father informs him that he has arranged a marriage for him and that he must follow tradition and marry his chosen bride.
Can he do this Thea and Leander have walked away from the traditions, can he be the one to carry it on and follow the Romani rules.
He can when he meets Essie she is a loner a fighter and she is sassy as hell, and someone he really want’s to get to know.
Essie is a fighter she has been told all of her life that she is a burden by her dad and step mom, but the one person that believes in Essie is Mami and what a women she is her grandmother.
Something happens that brings them closer together, Essie realises Freedom is the real deal he cares about her and wants to know her hopes and dreams for the future.
This book will take you on an amazing journey you will root for Freedom & Essie and love how all he wants to is give her happiness something she has never had.
You can read this as a standalone, but i promise you that you really do want to meet all this crazy family and travel with them on this journey.
Freedom and Essie’s story was unexpected and yet highly satisfying. I loved Essie’s spirit. I adored how Freedom and Essie both learn that yielding doesn’t always mean sacrifice. I absolutely adore Mami. The story moved rather quickly, and I found I could not put it down.
I found myself sad when the book ended. I want more of these characters.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Misty Walker has done it again, she writes real characters with honest emotions. It was nice to watch the relationship between Freedom and Essie grow. It has just enough steam too!
Don’t miss out on this third trip to Reno, I can’t wait to see more stories!
#FreedomBelongsToMari
Sorry had to get that out the way.
This is one of my fave books from this series.
This couple is #goals!
Freedom and Essie are the epitome of soulmates, of fate crossing their path, of what’s meant to be meant to be.
Their growth, not just their relationship but the growth they both do was awe inspiring. The way Essie glowed, hell her soul sang with Freedom.
I honestly didn’t want this story to end, I need more from them, we only got a glimpse of their HEA and I need more of it. More of their spark, chemistry and light.
This family series is one of my fave to follow along and will continue to do so.
Le sigh. Freedom and Essie had such a beautiful book. I loved it. I loved Freedom for his determination to make it up to Essie for her horrible past. And show her that she’s able to do whatever she strives for. That he wouldnt control her or expect her to wait hand and foot on him. The epilogue was amazing. And had me all up in my feels but i loved it all the same despite it makes me feel. But seriously Freedom was such a good guy. Mami i loved her she was so funny but such a weakth of knowledge for Essie. It was so much fun to see Law and his germaphobe tendencies. And Mark and Leander. And Thea and her boys. Amd the rest of the crazy Romani family.
Misty Walker rocked my world with Bohemian Patience! This has got to be my favorite book from the series by far with its smoldering passion, terrific banter, and two main characters that stole my heart and held my attention from the very first page.
Freedom and Essie were all the things! Their chemistry was electric and pulsated across the pages. I loved these two together and when they were trying so hard to repel each other. Honestly, they were so fun to see fight and then fall for one another.
My one complaint is that this story ended. That’s it. I wished I didn’t have to let them go! This story, characters, and world are just the perfect escape and I never wanted to come up for air! Seriously, if you haven’t started this series yet you are definitely missing out. Five stars.
Loved this book!! It hooked me from the very first page. Essie and Freedom have amazing chemistry and the tension between them is off the charts. I love how much of a role relationships play in this book. Not just Essie and Freedom’s but the relationships they have with others. I love that we see so much more of the Roma side in this one than we did in Bohemian Mark. Walker is a fantastic writer and I’m obsessed with this series. I can’t wait to see what she does next
Bohemian Patience is the third book of the traveler series. You are required to read the first two to understand this one. This book is about Freedom and Patience. This couple is the sweetest! It took Patience a while to trust, but eventually love conquers everything!! Sweet love
I can’t wait to read the next book!! Misty hurry up already!
I have read every book Misty has written to date. Her writing and unique words, have you wanting to read her whole book in one sitting. In this book we meet strong willed Freedom. Let’s just say he’s done living the Gypsy’s life. Can one outspoken independent Essie change his view on marriage and love.
Bohemian Patience Misty Walker (Traveler #3l
New favorite author ALERT!
Throughout the reading of this book the song Patience by Take That played in my mind.
‘ ,
‘
‘
Because that’s exactly how I felt while reading the book.
Freedom needed patience and Patience needed freedom
Freedom and Essie’s story is everything. On one hand I wanted to take it slow and enjoy each word and on the other I wanted to devour it and gallop down their story.
Their story is one of the best I’ve read lately and I will definitely do a re-read
Freedom feels overwhelmed by his dad’s demands and expectations so he finds himself at Mami’s asking to have a Tarrot cards reading.
. . “’ .”
He is the whole package. He’s kind, loving, dependable, thoughtful, hardworking man, hot as hell with his manbun and long fingers flicking his coin constantly. He’s my new book boyfriend. When Essie comes along you could tell that he gears up for the ride of his life.
, , . .
Essie is the young free spirited soul who wanders around in her cutoff shorts and loss shirts, with colorful tattoos and piercings. Sassy, bitchy and guarded. Essie has been told her whole life she has a dark soul and her only saving grace is her grandmother Mami who keeps her grounded. When Freedom steps into her life she fights, hard. But when something happens and Freedom is the one who saves her she knows she has no chance of winning her own battle.
, . ’ . ’ .
These two Gypsies want more of their lives at the compound and with the help of each other they find their way to get their dreams and hopes come true.
’ . ’ . ’ , .
The supporting characters gave this story another dimension. Knowing what happened with Leander&Mark and Thea&Law made the reading fun and having these characters interwoven in this story made it whole.
The background story of both Freedom and Essie broke my heart. How much does a person can take until his spirit is broken completely?! How much does a person can suffer until he gets his happy ending?
This book made me laugh with all of Freedom’s antics and Essie stubbornness. Made me hurt with them when they had no one there in their corner. Made me smile big to watch them find each other and have their HEA.
, , , .
This is a well written masterpiece, a page turner and a must read! The story will suck you in and you wouldn’t need to come up for air it so addictive.
