Still aching over his wife's death, Cody Gunner can't bear the thought of also letting go of his Down's Syndrome brother, Carl Joseph. Cody wants his brother home, where he will be safe and cared for, not out on his own in a world that Cody knows all too well can be heartless and insecure. So when Carl Joseph's teacher, Elle, begins championing his independence, she finds herself at odds with Cody. But even as these two battle it out, they can't deny the instinctive connection they share, and Cody faces a crisis of the heart. What if Elle is the one woman who can teach Cody that love is still possible? If Cody can let go of his lingering anger, he might just see that sometimes the brightest hope of all lies just beyond the clouds. (quoted by Karen Kingsbury)
My thoughts: Just Beyond the Clouds is also a good book after finishing A Thousand Tomorrows. I like the story between Cody and Elle, but even more the story between Carl Joseph and Daisy. Carl Joseph is Cody’s younger brother and is now part of a program teaching people with Down Syndrome how to have a successful life.
I do not recommend this book as a stand-alone novel but it is very good if you are wanting to learn what happens next in the story of Cody Gunner. It also has a happier ending than the first one not leaving you wanting more.
Feel free to look at my review of A Thousand Tomorrows.
