Book Description

December 19, 2003
He's been called a thug by some, a killer by other, and a few even see him as ruthless. However, Push has paid his dues. He's paid his "debt to society." Now, against all odds, he simply wants to make a living and become a productive member of society.

Harlem's underworld is home for Push. It's a much different world than many others, with dark and unfriendly streets, where gangsters, thugs and hustlers are the superstars who rule. It is here in Harlem that Push has been compelled to handle a task that happens to be right up his alley. Push has been hired to kill. Suddenly, Harlem's lawless encounters have a new judge and jury to balance its rights and wrongs, its beefs and its scores.

Reginald "Push" Jackson, the main protagonist, is a criminalized modern day hero of sorts. A hit man who is the product of the streets and the penal system, his journey is one that weaves a web of intrigue involving a multitude of characters. From the boardroom to the bedroom, from the beauty parlor to Harlem’s social hot spots, we become entangled in their world. With the holiday season as its backdrop, Push pushes its reader to the edge, then pulls them back in for more!

Push isn't just a thug, he's every woman's warrior and every man's dream. And you shouldn't take that personal.

Review

PUSH is smashing! I do know a gifted writer when I read one, and this man has a strong voice. -- Ms. Gloria E. Evans, The Bo, (TBO), December 28th, 2003

From the Back Cover

"Relentless is seriously getting his grind on." --Vibe
Reginald "Push" Jackson was a good kid from Harlem. He never meant to do anyone any harm. His parents raised him better than that…But then they were murdered and he was left on his own. And that's when the real trouble began…
 
Street fights. Guns. Drugs. Push fought his way through the back alleys to become one of Harlem's most powerful players. He made a name for himself for being tough. But he was loyal, too. Push would do anything to keep his loving sister, and his baby nephew, out of harm's way--until the law caught up with him, and he landed himself in a federal penitentiary.
 
"Relentless is very real." --98.7 KISS FM
Fifteen years later, Push has paid his dues. Though he planned to leave the thug life behind once he got out prison, he suddenly finds himself back in the game. But this time there are new players, and the rules are more dangerous--and deadly--than ever…

5.0 out of 5 stars Pushed to the Brink of Excitement, June 20, 2004
By 
T. Rhythm Knight (Coral Springs, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Push (Paperback)
Meet Reginald "Push" Jackson, in Relentless Aaron's book, Push. When Push's parents are murdered, he must become a parent to his baby sister, Crystal. With no other means to support himself and his sister, Push resorts to selling drugs. At the height of his lucrative career, New York's finest interferes and Push soon finds himself in jail. While in jail, Push learns the names of the people responsible for his parents' murder. Release from jail only means one thing to push - revenge. Can the love of a good woman and a devoted sister satisfy Push's appetite for revenge? Will Push avenge his parents' death or will he take on his newly offered job as a hired killer? The answer is in Relentless Aaron's exciting urban thriller, Push.

Wow, what a ride! If the trait of a good writer is his or her ability to keep their readers entertained, Relentless Aaron has mastered his craft. This book was packed with action and a fast-paced story. At every turn, a twist awaited. Aaron's development of the characters is to be commended, long after I put the book down, I found myself thinking about them. If you like urban fiction, and If you are looking for a book that is packed with action, Push, by Relentless Aaron is your book. Bravo Relentless!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pushing the boundries of excitement, July 26, 2004
By 
J. Ross (Bronx New York) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Push (Paperback)

Relentless Aaron has done it!He is that rare breed of authors who can excite,anger and arose a reader in the same book.PUSH is the novel that caused me to want more from this author as well as dreading the ending of said novel due to the fact that it was that damn good!It takes the reader into the world of a classic anti hero named Reginald "Push" Johnson.Push comes home after serving time in prision only to be lured back into the seamy underbelly of Harlem for the sake of family.The novel details the relasionship of Push the hitman,his victims,and the effect one has on the others lives.There is a lot to be said for an author who takes the time to do reserch on a subject for publication but with Relentless Aaron you feel that he has been there done that and has the tee shirt!He has created a page turner that only leaves you wanting more. The same way a man and woman who have just finished their first honeymoon bedroom session want more.This is a well written exciting summer read.I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal!!! WHAT"S NEXT???!!!, January 20, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Push (Paperback)
This is an engaging novel filled with the underworld of hustlers, gangstas, thugs, crooked politrickions, eroctic woman, big money, dirty money, street scores to settle & unimaginable sex! This book was incredible! The main character is centered around Reginald "Push" Jackson. He is every woman's hero and dream. Push is hired to kill, but how a can a killer such as him be such a passionate lover??? This book will astonish and capture your mind with it's unpredicatable twists & plots. This novel takes urban fiction to a whole different level. It's powerful from the foreword to the conclusion. This is a style eof writing that will grip & hold you tight! It's a page-turner that brilliantly taps in your psyche and exposes your deepest vulnerabilities. I have read this book 2X. What do I read now, Mr.Aaron?? Do you have any more books??? How do I get them? You are WICKED to leave me without something else. I NEED MORE!!! Where are your other novels??? Please don't have me begging like this - it's cruel. You give us something good & then you leave us??? Nah!!! You gotta (better) have something else! You've got my emotions all worked up after this novel. I must have something else written by you now; I need to know what you have in your mind again. I need you try and do this again. I like it TOO MUCH!!
