"""From the start, Anderson's novel immediately grabbed my attention with its meticulous portrayal of a baseball player. The author skillfully delved into the minute details such as the player's choice of which sock to put on first, his habit of eating sunflower seeds, and the focused mindset required to analyze pitches while standing in the batter's box. These vivid descriptions painted a truly lifelike image of the character. Furthermore, Anderson dedicated considerable effort to developing a protagonist haunted by a troubled past. As the story progressed, it became evident that the main character was driven by a relentless quest for redemption. Amidst the numerous unexpected twists and turns, this overarching theme remained prominent and captivating.

These strong moral principles permeated the story, making it a compelling read that is sure to pique the interest of a wide range of readers."" - DJ Reader ""While reading Crush My Heart, I could see the action movie it would yield. Something like John Wick meets Jason Bourne...or like a James Paterson novel. It has it all! The hero is a special ops (assassin) with obvious military training and a very dark past. His wife is abducted and he has to use all of his resources and relationships from the world left behind to save her. It is a well-worn plot line, yet the author demonstrates an unusual skill at character development and fantastic storytelling. This is a first-class action drama with a measured build-up to a surprise climax and resolve. A very compelling read from end to end. The book captures your attention in the first few pages.
