Sitting in the lonely hospital room as Simon struggles to survive, Kirby is confronted by old memories and the ghosts of his past. His mind drifts back to better days when he and Bennett were still young enough to view the world with wide eyes as young lads and then teenagers.With the help of new found mentor and confidant Ron Polite, Kirby steps back and examines his life, the hard choices and easy solutions and, most importantly, the role friends and family played in his development. Through it all he is forced to wonder how much more he can take.A Hopeful Hero is the third novel in the acclaimed, The Hero Book Series by author Jerald LeVon Hoover.
