Wow! That was surprisingly good! Definitely my favorite Calvert book so far! It would have been a 5-star rating except for two minor-ish issues.
Right away I loved both of the MCs, Riley Hale, and Jack Travis. Jack especially. I'm not sure why, but I always have a soft spot for characters like Jack. I loved Riley's strength and courage, fighting back after being attacked. And Jack's whole storyline was just fabulous and so realistic. Both these characters were so realistic, which is why I loved them. Bandy, also, was one of my favorite characters.
The storyline moves fairly quickly and kept my interest. I loved how laid back and clean the romance was. While some people would perhaps find all the medical details somewhat gruesome, I show more found that aspect fascinating. The faith elements were spot-on and that scene with Jack in Bandy's truck . . . wow! So powerful!
One of the main things I didn't like was how physical Jack and Riley's relationship went so quickly. Nothing detailed, of course, but lots of kissing, huggings, cuddling, etc. I wasn't really a fan. The other thing was that Riley so easily stepped into a romantic relationship with someone who had a very obvious anti-God attitude. As a Christian, I was surprised that she so readily jumped into a relationship with no qualms at all.
Overall though, I greatly enjoyed this medical drama and will definitely be on the lookout for a copy of my own.
CONTENT NOTE: Recommended for ages 17 due to mature themes.There is a lot of medical details that the young or sensitive might find disturbing. Mentions of drug misuse, a non-sexual assault, and a rape and murder. All are not overly detailed. Plus romantic attractions, kisses, hugging, cuddling, wanting to kisscuddle, etc. show less

TRAUMA PLAN:GRACE MEDICAL by Candace Calvert is a heart stopping inspirational romance/suspense/medical drama. I liked all the characters,especially,Riley Hale,an ER nurse who had been viciously assaulted and Jack Travis,a Dr. of a small clinic. I liked the romance between the two of them. Riley was always willing to volunteer in the clinic. She loved people.With dangers lurking,protests escalating and with her budding romance with Dr. Jack Travis ,Riley wonders if she should trust her heart with Jack. A good book! Received for an honest review from the publisher.
