SEATTLE - Washingtoner -- Seattle, WA – Retired U.S. Coast Guard rescue swimmer George Cavallo has released the audiobook version of his gripping memoir, Sharks and Daisies: Tales of a Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer. The memoir—now available in audio format—dives deep into his 20+ years of daring rescues, personal trials, and the relentless grit it takes to survive both at sea and in life.

Narrated by Cavallo himself, the audiobook gives listeners a raw and unfiltered look into the world of helicopter rescue missions in some of the harshest environments on Earth. From the stormy coasts of Alaska to moments of quiet reflection after tragedy, Cavallo weaves together edge-of-your-seat rescues with deeply human stories of perseverance, redemption, and resilience.

"I wasn't the biggest or the fastest," Cavallo says. "But I was the guy who refused to quit."

His story has already resonated with readers across the country, and the audiobook brings that emotional depth to a whole new level.

Whether you're a military enthusiast, a first responder, or someone drawn to stories of second chances and unwavering determination, Sharks and Daisies will leave a lasting impression.

The audiobook is now available on Audible, Amazon, iTunes
