Jeanie Clarke can be best described to those who don't know her as the woman who unwittingly led Steve Austin to stumble upon his most famous moniker. Before she was encouraging Austin to drink his tea before it was "Stone Cold" though, Clarke was actually part of the wrestling business herself. That and her relationship with Austin are natural focal points.

Known as Lady Blossom when working as a valet in both the UK and USA, Clarke had a tumultuous upbringing that contrasted vividly to the life she'd lead on television. That personal strife is explored in great detail, even more so when Clarke discusses her romance with Austin. Be prepared to see a different side to the hard-edged Stone Cold character.

The book moves fast, but that's a plus point. Quickly shifting from Clarke's background to her involvement in the wrestling industry was a wise decision. Anyone reading this wants juicy details. Whilst Clarke doesn't bury anyone as such, she does go in-depth.
