Symphony of Her Heart Sheri Rosedale

Symphony of Her Heart is a story that chronicles the life of a young woman, Lyla Rose, from young adulthood to late mid-life. Her choices, missteps, successes, and frailties compose a symphony that moves from movement to movement each with a distinct beat and tenor.

It is a journey of innocence and innocence lost, struggle and survival, and courageous transformation. Lyla emerges through this transformation just as the glamelia comes forth from the petals of the gladiola flower by connecting to and drawing from her essence to become the remarkable person she was meant to be.

There is a bond that exists between women that transcends familial blood ties. We share a unique ability to communicate, often without words, in ways unknown to others. While we may not be related by blood we are tethered essence to essence. We are 'sisters of the heart' each with our own unique symphony.

The telling of the story allows the reader to share Lyla's experiences and in this unique blend of symphonies recognize parts of themselves. For those who read Lyla's story, it is an opportunity to reshape who they are, their lives, and in turn touch others in the way they have evolved creating a ripple effect of epic proportions by saying, "I can do this," and blossoming anew.
