The hope-filled sequel to the bestselling One Tuesday Morning In this new novel by Karen Kingsbury, three years have passed since the terrorist attacks on New York City. Jamie Bryan, widow of a firefighter who lost his life on that terrible day, has found meaning in her season of loss by volunteering at St. Paul’s, the memorial chapel across the street from where the Twin Towers once stood. Here she meets a daily stream of people touched by the tragedy, including two men with whom she feels a connection. One is a firefighter also changed by the attacks, the other a police officer from Los Angeles. But as Jamie gets to know the police officer, she is stunned to find out that he is the brother of Eric Michaels, the man with the uncanny resemblance to Jamie’s husband, the man who lived with her for three months after September 11. Eric is the man she has vowed never to see again. Certain she could not share even a friendship with his brother, Jamie shuts out the police officer and delves deeper into her work at St. Paul’s. Now it will take the persistence of a tenacious man, the questions from her curious young daughter, and the words from her dead husband’s journal to move Jamie beyond one Tuesday morning. “Jamie Bryan took her position at the far end of the Staten Island Ferry, pressed her body against the railing, eyes on the place where the Twin Towers once stood. She could face it now, every day if she had to. The terrorist attacks had happened, the World Trade Center had collapsed, and the only man she’d ever loved had gone down with them. Late fall was warmer than usual, and the breeze across the water washed over Jamie’s face. If she could do this, if she could make this journey three times a week while Sierra was in school, then she could convince herself to get through another long, dark night. She could face the empty place in the bed beside her, face the longing for the man who had been her best friend, the one she’d fallen for when she was only a girl.”

"Great book! I didn't get as emotional reading this book as I did with the first book in this series probably because the story had moved past 9/11. If you're wondering what happened to the characters after One Tuesday like I did, then this is a must read. "
— Rebecca (5 out of 5 stars)
" I found ,myself reading my bible a lot while I read this book "
— Bj, 2/20/2014" Great sequel to One Tuesday Morning. "
— Angie, 2/17/2014" This book was the sequel to One Tuesday Morning, the book I finished in 2 days and this one was an equally fast read. I got into it quickly and was interested to see what happened to the main characters after 3 years. The bible verses continued to annoy me throughout the book but the story itself was good. The ending was predictable, much like the first book was, but it was a happy ending uplifting sort of book. "

— Erin, 11/6/2011" Very good. If only they'd stop knitting their eyebrows together. Please, author, make them stop. "
— Laurel, 4/3/2011" The writing was inconsistent and the story improbable. I forced myself to read it to the end, but was bitterly disappointed. The story is predictable and mostly unmoving. There are a few things, but I wouldn't recommend it. "
— Lauren, 3/4/2011" The preachiness of this story was a bit overwhelming, but the rest of the story was enjoyable. The main character lost her firefighter husband on 9/11, and has been trying to deal with the loss. "

— Kris, 1/11/2011" Was a pleasant and relaxing read. It wasn't as moved as I was by the first one, but it was nice to see some of the same characters and actually see the themes of peace and moving on. "
— Sarah, 1/3/2011" It was a great story about greiving and overcoming loss...however, I thought part of the premise was unreal. (Maybe slightly impossible) But still fun and entertaining. <br/>I would recommend it. "
— Nellie, 10/31/2010" Excellent sequel and a perfect example of how wonderful God is and how he has a plan for our lives. "
— Linda, 8/6/2010" After reading One Tuesday Morning, I couldn't wait to jump into Beyond Tuesday Morning. A great read and a great story. Tuesday Morning was my first Karen Kingsbury book but I know I will be reading more of her work. "
