Synopsis

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.

About this title

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...

About the Author

Black literati had best take note right here and right now. There’s a new writer on the block and he’s coming real, he’s coming hard and he’s coming strong. His name is Relentless Aaron, and let the name be your first forewarning. He is relentless in his mission to take the literary world by storm. The first release from his own publishing house, Relentless Content, Push is the first in a series of 30 tales combining hardcore urban fiction and black erotica to create episodic mayhem.

A former entertainment industry media personality, (he produced the New York based SuperStar USA TV Show, published The SuperStar Magazine, and ran one of New York’s hottest adult entertainment clubs) Relentless found himself caught up in a real life episode involving an elaborate crime spree. The subsequent years he spent in prison, he dedicated to turning his life around. "I used prison as time to not only reflect, but to create," reveals Relentless. "Here I was surrounded by a multitude of hardened criminals; murderers, gun-runners, drug kingpins and other personalities, each with their very own life’s tragedies to bare. I took this opportunity to not only study characterization and personality types, but I paid close attention to the way people acted and why. I practiced this as a primary activity... I consumed myself with my work. But what I found out in the meantime was that I was accomplishing something. I was building a daily routine of creating my own stories and urban legends. It is within the confines of a cold prison cell where my narratives came to life, and where, ironically, I was more alive than I’ve ever been."
