Synopsis

The author of the hit Redemption Song returns with a sparkling new novel about looking for love in all the wrong places--and with all the wrong people.Full of spirit and wisdom, the novels of Bertice Berry bring to life a rich tapestry of human experience. Now she turns her eye to matters of the heart, with an endearing main character who can't seem to keep bad men out of her life. Bernita Brown is a quick-thinking, tireless social worker who is good at practically everything--except love. Her first marriage ends in divorce, a painful experience Bernita refuses to think about. Instead, she dives into a series of sad relationships and overwhelming commitments to community and church. But not even church can keep her from being courted by dogs; Bernita's married pastor begins making passes at her, then blames her for his backsliding. Along the way, the ghost of Bernita's aunt Babe weighs in with plenty of advice (after all, Aunt Babe says, "You don't need to be alive to tell folks how to live"). When a marvelous man finally enters Bernita's life, only time can tell whether she will be able to trust him. Written with Berry's signature warmth and reliance on African-American ancestors who deliver homespun healing, When Love Calls, You Better Answer addresses a host of powerful topics, from abusive relationships to corrupt church leaders. Ultimately, Bernita's story will inspire readers to find the love they need, especially the love that can only come from within.

About The Book Worm Bookstore, LLC

The Book Worm Bookstore originally opened its doors in October 2005. With the owner ready to retire, new ownership happened in November 2020. We are home to over 30,000 titles - both new and used. Although the majority of our inventory is online we do have in-store items not listed. Please contact the store directly if there is something you don't see. We just joined Biblio in May 2020, and with the change of ownership, are finding some inconsistencies with our database. Since items come and go daily, we may have a higher rate of rejecting orders so our rating may not be stellar for a bit. Don't hold it against us as we are working diligently to get our database updated. Thank you for supporting your local community bookstore.Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
