Ward joined the adult film industry because she was typecasted as the good girl next door, which hindered her from growing in the entertainment industry.

According to the Simon & Schuster website, Ward "reveals the ups and downs of her fascinating career, including personal stories from her time on one of the most beloved shows of the 1990s" in her memoir.

"This is one of the proudest moments of my career. I'm so thrilled that I get to share my life and story in such a unique and impactful way," Ward said in a statement. "I am beyond grateful to Simon & Schuster and Atria books for having belief in my writing and my voice."

Ward's senior editor Michelle Herrera Mulligan said in the press release:

"Maitland's witty, incisive voice drew all of us in from the first page. Her rare perspective on the sexism she experienced first-hand in Hollywood, and the liberation she's found in women-produced adult entertainment, will inspire, shock, and inform a generation eager to learn her story."

Celebrating Her 45th Birthday

Ward recently turned 43 on February 3, and she shared a special post on social media for her birthday.

"It’s my birthday ?? When I was 28 years old someone told me I only had 2 years left to 'make it'. And part of me believed that," she wrote. "And in my early 30’s I kind of gave up on thinking I would achieve the dream that I wanted. But when I got to my mid 30’s I said screw this! I’m going to do this on my own. And today, as I turn 45 I have more success, love & opportunities than I could have ever imagined."
