"Riding Out the Storm" by Sis Deans follows the tumultuous journey of protagonist Alex, who faces a crossroads in life after a series of personal and professional upheavals. When a powerful storm approaches her small coastal town, Alex must confront the emotional chaos within her as she finds solace in the strength of her community. Through resilience, friendship, and the cathartic power of nature, she learns to embrace change and rediscover hope.
