When Calls the Heart, Lost and Found DVD

"Product was received for free in exchange for an honest review."

When Calls the Heart" tells the captivating story of Elizabeth Thatcher (Erin Krakow), a young teacher accustomed to her high society life, who receives her first classroom assignment in Coal Valley, a small coalmining town where life is simple, but often fraught with challenges. Lori Loughlin plays Abigail Stanton, a wife and mother whose husband, the foreman of the mine, along with a dozen other miners, has just been killed in an explosion.

The newly widowed women find their faith is tested when they must go to work in the mines to keep a roof over their heads. Elizabeth charms most everyone in Coal Valley, except Constable Jack Thornton (Daniel Lissing) who believes Thatcher's wealthy father has doomed the lawman's career by insisting he be assigned in town to protect the shipping magnate's daughter. Living in a 19th century coal town, Elizabeth will have to learn the ways of the frontier if she wishes to thrive in the rural west on her own.

The series is inspired by Janette Oke's bestselling book series about the Canadian West, and reunites Oke with Executive Producer and Director, Michael Landon, Jr.

My thoughts:

This is a great wholesome movie to watch with the whole family, young and old.  I watched the original movie When Calls The Heart, and could not wait for this series.  I loved it, even though there are a few changes from the pilot movie.

Elizabeth has many challenges she wasn't prepared for.  Abigail Stanton is Elizabeth's biggest ally.  Abigail has lost her son and husband, who were among others who lost their lives in the mine explotion. The two do become friends.

Jack Thornton was hired by Elizabeth's father to watch over her, since she had her mind set in taking the teaching job in Coal Valley.  They soon find that they are trying to fight the feelings between them.

This movie is one that has been added to my movie collection. Loved it!
