CJ Perry says her life and James Bond films inspired her spy thriller
Wrestling personality and actor CJ Perry says personal experiences inspired her book “Bulletproof Angel.”
The book is a spy thriller about a model who travels to Russia and is secretly an American-Russian spy.
The story also involves her relationship with a Russian mafia figure and her mother, who is a former spy.
Perry said she drew on memories from her own life, including a photograph of herself at age 15 in front of a cathedral.
She also said her interest in shooting guns helped shape the book, and her lifelong love of James Bond films influenced its direction.
As a child, Perry wondered why women could not be the ones doing the rescuing, rather than being portrayed as needing help.
