In The Hurricane Within, we travel with United States Coast Guard Air Medal recipient Ashlee Leppert through sudden reassignments that take her into the heart of Hurricane Harvey with all of its disaster and triumphs.

Along the way, scars from the past resurface as Ashlee battles with mysterious physical symptoms that appear with more frequency and eventually put the mission and Ashlee’s own survival at risk. Find out about Ashlee’s faith, which carries her through — all the way to being the honored guest of the President of the United States at the State of the Union Address.

Resilience and faith

This book was inspiring and deeply real. The honesty of her experiences, her family’s struggles, and the way she overcame her difficulties paint a powerful picture that allows you to see the world through her eyes. With her faith in God, she shows that everything is possible. Even during her search for answers about her health, she never lost sight of her true purpose—to help others. I loved how she weaves Scripture throughout the book; it beautifully outlines and strengthens the message behind her words. Kelly

Great relatable story

I have been through health issues, and hearing someone go through similar feelings, while in these intense situations and had never given up on herself, was so inspiring and encouraging. The author makes you feel all the emotions from the book through her narrative, taking you through ups and downs with her. Highly recommend!

Great Story

Ashley paints a vivid picture, not only of what our heroes do for us, but also of the internal struggle that one must overcome to achieve greatness

Having the Honor of receiving a free audio version, directly from Ashlee herself at a women’s flyin convention!

This bad ass chick gives honest and relatable experiences with a positive persevering attitude. I learn a lot about Coast Guard rescue flying from this book which was really interesting and a part of Aviation I didn’t know much about. Thank you Ashlee!!! 💖

Rescue the Perishing!

Ashlee rescued a woman and her bundles of clothes which were hoisted into 🚁 (Chapter 15). Like the late Leo Buscaglia noted, things are often not what we think!!!!

Hasn’t the CG seen 🎥 “Fate is the Hunter”? Don”t they know water on instruments is potentially fatal?!

Gripping narrative. Met author at WAI yesterday and book finished within a day!

The stories and author’s perspective makes me think of the hymn “Rescue the Perishing”!
