Happy Friday! This month was supposed to be a recuperating and healing month for me– not a lot for me to do but rest and get stronger. Little did I know that the rest of the country would be joining me! A lot of us now have plenty of time to catch up on our teetering, towering TBR pile! Maybe It’s You by Candace Calvert fits the prescription. Calvart’s books highlight the lives of health professionals who have big responsibilities even in the best of times. I’ve had this book a long, long time, and I really need to read it. I loved the first 2 books in the Crisis Team series, and am looking forward to digging into the final book.

ER nurse Sloane Ferrell escaped her risky past ― new name, zip code, job, and a fresh start. She’s finally safe, if she avoids a paper trail and doesn’t let people get too close. Like the hospital’s too-smooth marketing man with his relentless campaign to plaster one “lucky” employee’s face on freeway billboards.
Micah Prescott’s goal is to improve the Hope hospital image, but his role as a volunteer crisis responder is closer to his heart. The selfless work helps fill a void in his life left by family tragedy. So does a tentative new relationship with the compassionate, beautiful, and elusive Sloane Ferrell.
Then a string of brutal crimes makes headlines, summons responders . . . and exposes disturbing details of Sloane’s past.
Can hope spring from crisis?
Often called the author of “medical hope opera,” Candace Calvert is an ER nurse who landed on the other side of the stethoscope after the equestrian accident that broke her neck and convinced her love, laughter — and faith — are the very best medicines of all.
Her popular medical drama series (Mercy Hospital, Grace Medical, and Crisis Team) offer readers a chance to “scrub in” on the exciting world of emergency medicine, along with charismatic characters, pulse-pounding action, tender romance, humor, suspense — and an encouraging prescription for hope. Think “Grey’s Anatomy finds its soul”!
A native northern Californian, mother of two and proud grandmother to eight, Candace is a passionate “foodie,” equally at home with a whisk in her hand as she is penning stories. Folks who follow her on Twitter and Facebook will find photo-embellished recipes,funny insights into the writing life, snippets of upcoming work, and a chance at book giveaways.
