When
Courage Calls is
the first book in the Return to the Canadian
West series. This series is a bit of a sequel series to the Canadian West series. Beth Thatcher goes
west to be a teacher in Coal Valley much like her aunt Elizabeth did in When
Calls the Heart.
Coal Valley ends up
being move primitive that Beth thought it would be. After a few mishaps including
her belongings being stole including a compass and a priceless violin; Beth comes to love the children and the community as
they do her. While in Coal Valley she meets Constable Jarrick “Jack” Thornton
of the Royal mounted police.
I enjoyed When Courage
Calls more than I thought I would. I even loved it. When I didn’t think that I
would because the Canadian West series wasn’t a favorite.
But Beth was a character
you couldn’t help but love. And the children of Coal Valley were so sweet and
they had been though so much. And of course Jack being a character in the book
wasn’t so bad either. Reading this book
has me wanting to watch the When Calls the Heart TV show. But I want to finish
this book series first.
From the beginning of
the novel Beth’s strong faith had me pulling out my own Bible and reading
though the Psalms while I was reading the book. I even added the When Calls the
Heart Devotional to my list of books to buy.
I am looking forward to
finishing this series. And If the next two are anything like this one I know
that I am going to love each of them.
