Hearts that Survive - A Novel of the Titanic

By Yvonne Shirley Lehman ms

Description:

Lydia Beaumont and her new friend Caroline Chadwick plan Lydia's wedding aboard the "grandest ship ever built." Yet their lives take a tragic turn when the "unsinkable" Titanic goes down. This epic tale of faith and perseverance follows their lives and the lives of their descendants as they strugle with all that was lost on that fateful night and what the future holds for those brave enough to face it.

Book Takeaway:

There is survival after loss if one looks, and chooses, and is courageous.

Why the author wrote this book:

A tragedy like the sinking of the Titanic is never forgotten, or perhaps it shouldn't be. The 100th anniversary of the sinking is April 2012. Hundreds of souls were lost that night and the story of my characters needed to be told.
