Read Online When Love Calls (The Gregory Sisters, #1) Picturized By Lorna Seilstad Contained In Paperback

Gregory's life changes drastically when her parents die, She drops out of law school and goes to work full time in order to provide for her sisters.
When handsome young lawyer, Lincoln Cole, delivers devastating news about a foreclosure on the farm, Hannah vows to make sure that her sisters never want for anything and to have nothing to do with Lincoln.
For a rule breaker like Hannah, when she gets a job as a telephone operator where strict adherence to the rules is mandatory her sisters are shocked.
And as much as Hannah wants to have nothing to do with Lincoln Cole, he keeps showing up, determined to show her that he's not the enemy.
Will Hannah learn to trust and let go of being in control

This the first book I've ever read by Seilstad and I found it to be delightful.
It was humorous at times, yet the characters felt real to me, One of my favorite scenes was when Hannah the rule breaker pulls Lincoln into a pond, I laughed so hard at that scene, I found that the struggle Hannah went through to accept help and rely on others to be a very struggle.
I know it's something that I've had to learn to accept as well at times in my life.
I also loved how the one instance in which Hannah maybe should have said something, she didn't because she wasn't sure and she didn't want to falsely accuse someone.


I found this book to be a lightheart fast read, It took me only a couple of days to read it as I was reading it mostly in the evenings.
I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a light read,

I received this book for free from Revell Books for the purpose of reviewing, My thoughts and opinions are my own,

I loved Hannah, She has lots of spunk, She is a free thinker and the type of woman I would imagine myself to be back in these times if I was living in them.
Hannahs two sisters are just as entertaining, I can not wait to read their stories,

Lincoln is easy on the eyes, I almost felt sorry for the way that Hannah treated him, except that I knew that Lincoln could handle Hannah.
Now that I have been introduced to this author, I will be checking out more of her books.
When Love Calls you answer it and read a copy of this book!
I absolutely love this book and the author! This is the first of Lorna's work I have had the pleasure of reading, and I WANT MORE!!! LOL! She weaves humor into her story with an elegance unique to her way of writing.
I must rave about her style and the story, Mystery is held with in and the lesson of learning to trust, I am personally at a time in my life where I have lost my siblings whose relationships with me had been strained any way.
So the relationship between the Gregory sisters is like a balm to my soul, I can not wait until the next book in this series comes out!!! : Aunt Sam's character is spunky and a wonderful addition that I want more of and I really enjoyed learning about the Hello Girls and the things they had to go through.
Some are crazy! Lorna's pace is great and I never really felt like the story lagged in any place.
There are different threads to this book that all end up in the same place with a beautiful ending.
I love the way is begins I love the way it ends! Simply fabulous piece of writing and I have found a new favorite author as well as book! :

My songs for When Love Calls are: "Trust and Obey" by Chelsea Moon amp The Franz Brothers, "Ho Hey" by Nashville Cast I think the lyrics fit somewhat.
. . : , "Relaxing Piano Music" by Relaxing Piano Music: Greatest Hymns: Best Loved Religious Hymns and Spiritual Songs for Christian Devotion, and this last one is between Ruth and Naomi but I still think it fits this book in some way plus I just love this song :D "I'm With You Ruth amp Naomi" by Nichole Nordeman.


Ruth:

One of the things I liked in this story was Hannahs younger sister, Tessa.
She isgoing on! She is smart, funny and has mature insight into some of her sisters problems.
Hannah and her other sister Charlotte dont always appreciate Tessas candid speech, which sometimes leads to more hilarious comments from Tessa.
The sisters have promised to support each other in achieving their dreams, and it was touching to read about this familial dedication.
I also liked Hannahs spontaneity, There is a funny scene involving a row boat, a lake andwell, youll have to read the book to find out what happens.
The love Lincoln shows to Hannah in the things he does to make her happy is inspiring, The love that blossoms between the two is evidenced by their kindness and selfsacrifice for one another, Allinall this is a charming romance that is ideal to pass the time with on a rainy day.
