When Tomorrow Came by Hannah Linder is an emotionally gripping rollercoaster ride full of loss, love, sadness, family as well as Faith and Joy. The story is action packed with surprises and a unique plot with twists and turns that kept me on my toes. The characters are well rounded and realistic. Frankly, I couldn't put this book down. I highly recommend When Tomorrow Came!

5 Stars!

I received this book for free. A favorable review was not required, and all views expressed are my own. Thank you to Barbour Fiction and Ms. Linder for the opportunity to read and review this book. ( )

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK
Siblings Nan and Heath were abandoned by their father to make their own way. They always wished he would come back home to them, but that wasn’t to happen. After living their separate lives into adulthood, their father shows up and reunites the family. But his demands for both of his now adult children are more than they want to do or even hear from him.

From the beginning, my heart went out to these children. With the dad they had and their caretakers, their lives wasn’t good at all. Until they were old enough to make a life on their own. I just love Nan and Heath characters. I enjoyed following them along through their journey, always wishing I was there to help them. There is so much more to this story, but I don’t want to ruin it for you. You need to read this book to get the good stuff!

When Tomorrow Came is the first book I have read by Hannah Lincoln, and I can’t wait to see what she has in store for readers next. I’m giving this one Four Stars.

I definitely love this fresh voice in Regency Christian Fiction. She handles difficult subject matter with sensitivity and finesse that leaves you with hope. I love Nan and Heath and their strong bond as siblings. Heath made great sacrifices to see his sister had a better life than living on the streets of London. It is well written and immersed me in the story that left me teary eyed at points and also quickly turning pages to see the outcome. There are so many good aspects to this book but I do not want to elaborate and spoil it. It is a perfect example of God never leaving us no matter how difficult life becomes as He still gives us a hope and a future. A very satisfying ending.
I received a complimentary copy from CelebrateLit. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required. ( )

“When’s Papa coming back?” “Today or tomorrow.”

Young, starving, street urchin siblings from London in the 1800s are separated and raised quite differently, in When Tomorrow Came by Hannah Linder. Nan is raised in high society, by the Stanhope family, with a special attachment to her older foster brother, Gilbert. Nan’s brother Heath is taken in by a poor, caring rector, who teaches Heath how to show people the love of God. This is a balm to my reader’s heart, as Heath is so abused as a child that he cannot understand or love a God who allows many horrible things to happen on His earth.

When Heath and Nan’s absentee biological father finally reappears, the expected bliss of belonging and unconditional love do not come with him. Instead, a papa they don’t remember, who is given to drink, meanness, lies, and threats has arrived.

I did love Nan and Heath and their devotion to each other, as well as Gilbert and Nan’s relationship of deep sibling love. Loftus and Temperance added much to the story. While I loved Mr. Stanhope for his wisdom and caring ways, he was not as developed as other characters.

Linder paints great, but not pretty, pictures of child poverty, abuse, and the machinations of minds bent on revenge.
The loyalties we see in different relationships are beautiful, but choking for Nan and Heath, in the case of their father.

I found the narratives hard to follow as there is no distinction or separation between which characters are being discussed. I had to go back and re-read many times, when the character discussion switched with no warning to the reader, from one sentence to the next.

While an emotionally-charged novel, I had trouble becoming fully engaged until the last third, when it seemed finally all story seeds sprouted. Action, danger, suspense, mystery, romance- it all seemed to come together here and the novel became unputdownable.

I received a copy of the book from Celebrate Lit via NetGalley. No positive review was required, and all opinions are my own.

Notable Quotables:

“Why couldn’t he just grab her onto his lap, hum the old songs, and be the papa the little girl inside of her still needed?”

“Perhaps it is as important to forgive as to ask for it.

“Love was too powerful to die, so it shriveled and formed into something new. A kind of hatred. A bitterness...”

“There was no changing what already was. There would never be room for tomorrow until Papa let go of every yesterday—and all of its hurt.” ( )
