When WCTH returns, “schoolteacher Elizabeth Thornton (Krakow) embarks on a fresh start — with new romance, new challenges and new style,” according to the official logline. “She and Mountie Nathan Grant (played by Kevin McGarry) navigate their growing romantic feelings while also leaning on each other for support as they face new parenting obstacles.”
Additionally, “newly elected governor Lucas Bouchard (Chris McNally) must confront his past in order to embrace his strengths and lead Hope Valley into the future,” while “retired mountie Bill Avery (Jack Wagner) and newspaper reporter Rosemary Coulter (Pascale Hutton) team up to unravel a mystery putting their entire community at risk.”
Per Hallmark, When Calls the Heart Season 11 — which will consist of 12 episodes — “explores renewal, redemption and, of course, romance, as Hope Valley enters the 1920s.” See the key art below, then hit the comments with your Season 11 wish lists.
