Candace Calvert is the author of medical hope opera and believes that love, laughter, and faith are the best medicines. A former ER nurse, wife, Mom and proud grandmother, her popular
medical fiction offers charismatic characters, pulse-pounding drama,
romance, humor, suspense--and a prescription for hope. Think, “Grey’s
Anatomy finds its soul.”
Candace is a Northern California native who spent several years in Hill Country Texas--where she learned to check her shoes for scorpions and plucked an armadillo from her swimming pool. Candace writes inspirational fiction because God blessed her with a quirky wit, buoyant optimism, and a contagious sense of fun--but she didn’t come to know him until after the Triple Whammy that turned her life into a bad country song. A painful and unexpected divorce, the Northern California floods of 1997, and (just when she was coping like a champ, no problem) an equestrian accident that left her with fractured ribs, a bleeding lung, broken back, neck fractures and a spinal cord injury. She’ll tell you that God took drastic measures to get her attention. In the months of rehabilitation, Candace healed in body and spirit. And came to fully understand the difference between being a strong woman and a woman of strength. The difference is faith, and that lesson has been her biggest blessing. Her story, “By Accident,” appears in Chicken Soup for the Nurse’s Soul, and launched her writing career. Candace is honored to bring readers medical fiction that offers exciting entertainment and a healthy dose of hope. |
