This is the first book I have read by Bernadette Marie but I love a good cowboy story and this did not disappoint. I loved the characters and I think when a author shows them with flaws and all you find them more endearing and relatable to invest your emotions in and Eric and Susan do not disappoint. They both have to overcome some major life changing dramas and feeling you are working this out them is great.
The story is well written and the characters as I have said were brilliantly, I also thought the secondary characters really enhanced the story and can’t wait to read the stories of each of the brothers and see their histories uncover as I bet there are a few juicy stories in them.
Thank you Bernadette for introducing me to another family to invest in and can’t wait to read the next instalment.
Walker Pride (The Walker Family Series Book 1) by Bernadette Marie was a great romantic read. I loved Eric as soon as I met him: his aloofness made him stand out. I enjoyed meeting the whole Walker family and finding out their secrets. There was romance, suspense, and mystery elements throughout. I did like Susan’s character as well, a woman trying to make it on her own.

Walker Pride is book one in the Walker Family series by Bernadette Marie. This is a cowboy romance that is easy to relate to and very easy to immerse yourself into. The path to happily ever after is never easy, and this story is no exception. The characters are diverse, individual and very likable. The story has all the feels. The drama is exciting. The romance sizzling. The author does a cracking job and delivers a stunning read. 4 stars.
This was my first Bernadette Marie book, and I am so very impressed with how each character had such a unique, distinct voice and personality. With such a large group of characters, mainly handsome gentlemen, it can easily become smeared talking heads, but Marie is very skilled in her character development. This is a love at first sight, heroine standing on her own two feet, love story that happens to have a rugged, loner cowboy as the hero! Throw in some mouth-watering descriptions of yummy food, a mystery, and some good old-fashioned southern charm and you have the makings of a great late-night read.
I can’t wait to see what the next Walker brother has in store!

Walker Pride (The Walker Family Series Book 1) by Bernadette Marie
Walker Pride is the first book in The Walker Family Series by Bernadette Marie. I truly enjoyed reading this romance story. I was drawn in from the beginning and kept me turning the pages till the end. I’ve read other books by this author but this one is definitely my favorite yet. Susan moves to Georgia to start the life she always dreamed of one-day having and to start her own catering business but what she didn’t expect was to meet Eric. His life was pretty well boring until his uncle put his life in jeopardy and gambled away the family’s property. There are twists and turns had family secrets. Can these to have a future together? Find out what happens next in this absolute must read. I can’t wait to read more from this Author and this series.
I must confess normally cowboy romances aren’t my favorites, but Brenadette Marie knocked this one out of the park and I was hooked from page one until the ending. I loved this whole read and am looking forward to seeing how this series unfolds. Eric Walker is the man of the hour in this book and his leading lady is Susan. These two do not disappoint and I very much loved the detail with which Ms. Marie wove their story. It was multilayered so I did have to go back a few times to clarify I was following things right and had the idea right. That is the only small note I would make on this one and the only thing keeping a five star rating for me. I just got a bit confused sometimes but I loved the story overall. I hope the next one flows a bit smoother. I think this is a series I will want to grace my bookshelf as well with covers like this one!
All I can say about Walker Pride is oh my goodness, I thought I was getting myself into a good cowboy book but it is so much more. I have read several of Ms. Marie’s stories before but when I saw that she was starting a series about cowboys I was hooked from the beginning. Walker pride is so much more then just a cowboy book though, it has romance, drama, suspense, and like any good cowboy story it’s filled with family feuds. Ms. Marie’s character development and scenery makes her reader feel like their right in the middle of it all. I have to say that this story was one of my favorites and I personally can’t wait to see what happens next.

I absolutely loved this book – I have to say I have a thing for a sexy cowboy so this story was definitely up my street so to speak! I loved Eric! He’d not had the easiest of lives but loved his simple and easy life until it’s jeopardised by a family member. I really felt for him at times and the author did a great job with his character giving him that slight vulnerability – this made me love him even more. I liked Susan too, she was clearly looking to get away from her past life when she meets Eric. Their story definitely had some twists and turns and it is one that I highly recommend.
