Synopsis

Caleb Rush, a.k.a. Crush, is the toughest, coolest bodyguard/bouncer in Los Angeles, a man who lives strictly by his own moral code, which doesn't exactly hew to the standards of U.S. law. When Amelia Trask, the wild daughter of a scruples-free billionaire tycoon, comes to Crush for help, his quiet life roars into overdrive, and he has to use his wits, brawn, martial-arts training, and knowledge of the Russian Mafia to stay alive and clean up the mess that young Amelia has created. Crush is a rollicking ride through LA, full of action, suspense, memorable characters, and a sly wit.

Phoef Sutton hits a towering home run with CRUSH. Cleverly written and action-packed, the novel moves like a freight train, weaving fascinating characters with blistering violence, crackling dialogue and twisting turns. On par with the best writers in this genre, Sutton has crafted a character worth......more

Goodreads review by Pygmy on January 05, 2016

As someone else mentions here, it reads like a screenplay. Not a lot of depth, characterization, or emotional impact; just a lot of fast-paced action scenes with people who are not particularly interesting or likable.......more
