When Love Calls...

About the Book

When Love Calls is the second installment in the series following Red September, which tells the coming-of-age story of Connie Hart, the family matriarch. Now, the spotlight shifts to her daughter, Brenda Hart. At twenty-five, Brenda travels to Taino, a picturesque town in the West Indies and her mother’s birthplace. Her mission is clear: sell a family property inherited from her mother’s first husband. Armed with a degree in accounting, power of attorney, and a sharp business sense, Brenda believes she’s prepared for the task. But once in Taino, things don’t go as planned. When she learns the true value of the land, her plans take an unexpected turn. Then love enters the picture. Brenda soon finds herself drawn to Claude Williams, the charming and successful real estate broker managing the sale. Their chemistry is undeniable, and emotions deepen quickly. Yet beneath Claude’s polished exterior lies a family entangled in secrets and lies, entanglements that threaten everything Brenda thought she could trust. As the relationship intensifies, Brenda is faced with a heart-wrenching decision. Should she endure an uncomfortable situation for the sake of love, even if it means staying in a setting filled with tension and deceit? Or should she walk away - for her peace of mind, even if it means breaking her own heart? Set against the lush backdrop of the Caribbean, When Love Calls is a moving tale of legacy, love, and the courage to choose oneself.
