Canvas of the Heart is romantic novel about a young woman
with cerebral palsy, and how she rises above the term disability through her
relationship with friends, family, and above all, the man who becomes her
husband.
Funny, sexy and inspirational, the book focuses on
Lindsey’s insights, struggles and triumphs, teaching us that those with
disabilities can also lead rich, full lives.
Georgia native Melissa Taggart is a believer in tackling
challenges. Diagnosed with CP at the age of three months, as a child she
discovered that writing offered her a way to deal with a speech impediment. It
not only paved the way for better communication, but she transformed a
challenge into the voice of a writer eager to teach the world that people with
disabilities are people with the same lives, loves and longings as anyone else.
Through Melissa’s amusing, insightful and touching
stories, she addresses issues and common misconceptions in a way that will open
the eyes and hearts of readers everywhere. Her goal is to deliver her special
message with humor and candidness, as well as bring greater awareness about the
real world of the disabled.
When Melissa is not busy creating the universe of
Lindsey, Jason and Max, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends.
She also volunteers part-time in a first grade classroom helping the kids with
worksheets and games and other activities...
