Life doesn't always give you a warning before the bottom drops out.

In Roller Coaster: Ride of My Life, Will Matay tells the unfiltered true story of a life marked by tragedy, survival, determination, and an unwillingness to quit.

Beginning with events that shattered his family as a teenager, Will recounts the experiences that shaped the man he would become. He takes readers through leaving home, building a life and career, becoming a husband and father, and ultimately facing an accident and spinal cord injury that changed everything.

Paralysis was not the end of his story.

What followed was years of rehabilitation, learning to live with a disability, fighting through pain and medical complications, helping others facing similar challenges, and navigating a healthcare and veterans' benefits system that often required yet another fight simply to be heard.

This is not a story about asking for sympathy. It is a story about what happens when life knocks you down again-and again-and you decide to keep moving forward anyway.

At times painful, at times funny, and often brutally candid, Roller Coaster: Ride of My Life is one man's account of surviving the unexpected turns, drops, and climbs that became his life.

The ride hasn't always been easy.

But it isn't over.
