The funny thing about Hope

An excerpt taken from Redemption:

Hope.

Funny thing about life was you never knew what was coming next. One day you’re boarding a plane to Peru to kick some terrorist ass, the next you’re imprisoned, tortured, near death. One day you’re saying your final goodbyes to a life that had turned on you, the next you’re caring for a woman who crashed into your yard bringing…hope.

Yeah, funny how things could change in the blink of an eye. He bet Hope never imagined her life would irrevocably change as she walked into her father’s home for Christmas. Probably never imagined running for her life to a man who’d given up on life.

Irony didn’t even begin to describe it.
