Just Beyond the Clouds

JUST BEYOND THE CLOUDS: Karen Kingsbury: Center Street: Romance: 352 pages

Just Beyond the Clouds is the sequel to A Thousand Tomorrows and follows the story of Cody Gunner after his wife Ali passes away. Elle Dalton is director of an Independent Learning Center for Down Syndrome adults when she meets Cody, her student Carl Joseph's brother, who is intent on removing Carl from the center. Romance ensues between Elle, still brokenhearted over being jilted at the altar four years ago, and Cody, an angry bull rider who still grieves the loss of his wife to cystic fibrosis. Meanwhile, it's up to Elle-and Carl Joseph-to show Cody that Down Syndrome adults are capable of much more than most people believe.

I like the way Karen Kingsbury writes and this book was no different. I enjoyed learning more about the opportunities for Down Syndrome adults and seeing Cody’s character develop even more through this novel. I would recommend this book to someone who is looking for a light inspirational romance.
