  On the surface, Bevan Cox looked like a man who had it all: career success, physical strength, and social admiration. Inside, he was drowning in childhood trauma, betrayal, codependency, and a justice system turned against him. When the noise became impossible to silence and his final goodbye was seconds from being uploaded, a divine interruption stopped him. 
  Turn Toward the Storm is that story. 
  Told with gut-wrenching honesty and zero sugarcoating, this audiobook is a raw memoir of hitting absolute rock bottom—and choosing to rebuild anyway. Through false arrests, trauma bonds, narcissistic abuse, and suicidal ideation, Bevan doesn’t just survive—he learns to heal. What emerges is a powerful roadmap for anyone carrying invisible scars they’ve been taught to ignore. 
  Listeners walk through jail cells, therapy rooms, and courtrooms engineered for his downfall. You’ll step into the world of fitness competitions, where discipline becomes a lifeline. You’ll sit in the quiet, brutal moments where faith stops being a concept and becomes the only thing left standing. 
  Along the way, you’ll learn how to set boundaries, rewire destructive beliefs, dismantle the ego, and rebuild an identity from the ashes of who you used to be. This is not a story about perfection or performance: it’s about courage, responsibility, and the radical decision to fight for a life you no longer believe you deserve. 
  Turn Toward the Storm is for anyone who’s been told to “stay strong” while silently falling apart. It’s for those who grew up in chaos, loved the wrong people, were betrayed by systems meant to protect them, or wake up wondering why they’re still here. 
  If your pain has ever whispered that your story is over, this audiobook stands as proof that it’s not. Peace isn’t a reward for the perfect—it’s a decision made by the brave.

  On September 6, 2018, White Dallas police officer Amber Guyger opened the door of Apartment 1478. Inside, Botham Jean lay on his couch, having hung up from his daily call with his sister, Allisa. She’d encouraged her brother to stay home for the night’s opening Dallas Cowboys game as sports bars would be too dangerous. Guyger instantly assumed the large black man watching the game was a burglar in her home. She shot him, then failed to render aid as he succumbed to the wound she’d inflicted. Officer Guyger forever altered the lives of the hundreds who knew and loved this kind-hearted young man who lead worship at his church and worked diligently at Price Waterhouse Cooper. Botham's murder shocked the nation. And it devastated his sister. After Botham is Allisa’s story of what happened to her brother and how she fought through the aftermath to find life.

  Aftermath of World War II The:...

  At the end of World War II, the world was faced with some sobering statistics. With over 50,000,000 deaths when both military and civilian losses had been accounted for, the death toll was devastating, and for many of those who lived in countries that had been ravaged by war, hunger and financial strain had become parts of daily life. Furthermore, beyond the physical damage was the growing knowledge of the atrocities that had been committed both before and during the war. In fact, the Allies were discussing how to dole out justice for Axis war crimes as early as 1943, and once the war was over, it was time for the nations to turn their attention towards determining the proper punishments.  
  	In the wake of the war, the European continent was devastated, and the conflict left the Soviet Union and the United States as uncontested superpowers. This ushered in over 45 years of Cold War, and a political alignment of Western democracies against the Communist Soviet bloc that produced conflicts pitting allies on each sides fighting, even as the American and Soviet militaries never engaged each other. Though it never truly got “hot” between the two superpowers directly, the Cold War was a tense era until the dissolution of the USSR, and nothing symbolized the split more than the division of Berlin.  
  	If anyone wondered whether the Cold War would dominate geopolitics, any hopes that it wouldn’t were dashed by the Soviets’ blockade of West Berlin in April 1948, ostensibly to protest the currency being used in West Berlin but unquestionably aiming to extend their control over Germany’s capital. By cutting off all access via roads, rail, and water, the Soviets hoped to force the Allies out, and at the same time, Stalin’s action would force a tense showdown that would test their mettle.

  Themes of unspoiled paradise tamed by progress can be seen in stories about pioneer history across the US, especially in Florida. Selling Vero Beach explores how settlers from northern states created myths about the Indian River area on Florida's Atlantic Coast, importing ideas about the region's Indigenous peoples and marketing the land as an idyllic, fertile place of possibilities. 
   
   
   
  Kristalyn Shefveland describes how the Indian River Farms Company and other boosters painted the region as a wild frontier, conveniently accessible by train via Henry Flagler's East Coast Railway. Shefveland provides an overview of local Aís and Seminole histories that were rewritten by salespeople, illustrates how agricultural companies used Native peoples as motifs on their fruit products, and includes never-before-published letters between Vero Beach entrepreneur Waldo Sexton and writer Zora Neale Hurston that highlight Sexton's interest in story-spinning and sales. 
   
   
   
  Selling Vero Beach unpacks real and fabricated pasts, showing how the settler memory of Florida distorted or erased the fascinating actual history of the region. With a wide variety of stories invented to lure investors and tourists, many of which circulate to this day, Vero Beach is an intriguing example of why and how certain pasts were concocted to sell Florida land and products.
