“An inspiring story of how to overcome even the worst of what life has to offer.” —Sports Illustrated
“Saraya’s journey is so inspiring, both inside and outside of the ring. Her strength of will, determination, and desire to beat the odds on her own terms will ignite a fire inside you. I feel blessed to witness her become a huge wrestling star firsthand and I know her story will bring a tear to you eye and a smile to your face.”
—Brie (Bella) Danielson
“From seeing her begin this journey as a teenager in the British wrestling scene to where she is today, I’m so proud to see not just the wrestler, but the woman Raya has become. I know how hard it is to leave your family and country to chase this impossible dream in big, bad America at such a young age. Truth is the wrestling is the easy part. It’s homesickness, trying to learn how to be an adult and the setbacks that life throws at you that is the real challenge. Raya has faced moments that almost broke her and would break any normal person, thankfully she is no normal person. In her own unfiltered words learn about her path, her struggles and how people from our side of the world make swearing a f***ing art. Learn how that little nervous girl I first met backstage in Scotland became the women who is now a household name.”
—Drew Galloway, A.K.A. WWE’s Drew McIntyre
“Among the Gypsies, Carnies, crazies and characters that bespangle the land of Pro Wrestling, I have seen few lights shine as bright as Saraya’s. Hers is the light of a genuine and beautiful soul, the kind that will burn bright and warm through any rainstorm and cannot be extinguished by any of life’s hardships. It is a rare woman with whom you can shoot whiskey, trust to back you up in a knife fight, and expect to give you thoughtful birthday gift ideas for your wife months ahead of time. With this book Saraya invites you, with a smile and a warm embrace, to sit down with a piping cup of Earl Grey and enjoy her company... just try not to catch a Doc Marten in the teeth if things go sideways. Such is the juxtaposition of our wonderful gypsy princess. A porcelain doll tougher than truck stop beef jerky. If you've ever wondered what it would be like if Emma Thompson starred in Mad Max : Beyond Thunderdome then this book is for you.”
—Jon Moxley
“This book is the whole package wrapped up in the prettiest of leather spiked bows. Saraya is raw, honest & dare I say, vulnerable? Bleeding her heart onto these pages & not sparing one intimate detail. To have walked through the hell she has she certainly earned her wings on the angelic soul she has. She’s a true warrior but knows how to lay her armor down when it comes to painting a beautiful picture of the life she’s lived in this book.”
