When romance calls, will she choose to answer?

Hannah Gregory is good at many things, but that list does not include following rules. So when she must apply for a job as a switchboard operator to support her two sisters, she knows it won’t be easy. Hello Girls must conduct themselves according to strict-and often bewildering-rules, which include absolutely no consorting with gentlemen while in training.

Hannah doubts it will be difficult to keep that rule-until a handsome young lawyer starts getting under her skin.

With historic details that bring to life the exciting first decade of the twentieth century, Lorna Seilstad weaves a charming tale of companionship that blossoms into sweet romance.

Lorna is one of those authors that just jumped straight into my Christian Historical Fiction world and delighted me from the beginning. Her stories are quirky and fun and When Love Calls completely fits that bill, but the main this is just how different the story is. To my reading experience her characters are so unique and full of personality that they come straight off the page, and being able to have that today without a repeat is absolutely delightful. Like my experience with Mary Connealy and her “sister” series, as a reader we have already been given a treat in an glimpse at the other Gregory sisters and I can only image as the rest of The Gregory Sisters series releases that there will be more fun, romance, and silly quirks to come! (Oh and if you know me, you know being related to a Mary Connealy line of writing, is a compliment!)

A former high school English and journalism teacher, she has won several online writing contests and is a member of American Christian Fiction Writers. Lorna lives in Iowa with her husband.
