About the When Hope Calls series
When Hope Calls is a further continuation of the When Calls the Heart fictional world, co-written by Janette Oke and her daughter Laurel Oke Logan and published as a tie-in to the Hallmark Movies Now spin-off series of the same name. It follows two adoptive sisters, Lillian and Grace, who move to a small frontier town to start an orphanage, and was written as a companion novel series to that streaming spin-off rather than a continuation of the earlier book series' specific characters.
Like Return to the Canadian West, the series represents Oke's later-career pattern of co-writing book tie-ins to screen adaptations of her original story-world, sharing credit and an increasing share of the actual writing with Logan.
