Item Description...
Jake Bryan is a New York City fireman and devoted family man. He has a storybook marriage to Jenny, his high school sweetheart. Taped to the inside of his helmet is the photograph and name of their four-year-old daughter, Sierra. Eric Michaels is a driven financial manager who has spent the past five years climbing the corporate ladder, often at the expense of his wife, Amber, and two young sons. On September 11, 2001, Eric is doing business on the 91st floor of the World Trade Center when the building is hit by a commercial airliner. In the race down the smoky stairwell, Eric falls. At the same moment, firefighter Jake Bryan is rushing up the stairs. He stops and helps Eric to his feet and as he does, his helmet falls. Eric hands the helmet back to the fireman and both men freeze momentarily, stunned by the uncanny resemblance between them. Minutes later the building begins to shake and crumble. When Eric Michaels awakens he is beneath a fire truck. He is burned and bloody, and most of his clothes have been blown off. A fire captain rushes to his side, thinking he recognizes his friend Jake, and leads him to a triage center, then contacts the woman he assumes is the man's wife Jenny Bryan. By the time she arrives at the hospital, Eric's face is bandaged from the burns and injuries. When the bandages come off, days later, Jenny assumes that the difference in his appearance is due to the effects of the burns. Eric remembers almost nothing from before the attack. In the months that follow, Eric struggles to fill the gaps in his memory and to relate to a wife and daughter he doesn't remember. On the opposite coast, Amber, grieving the loss of her husband, is helped by Eric's best friend--a single man who has always adored her. Then Eric begins having disturbing dreams and flashbacks--of a different family. And questions begin to grow in Jenny's mind. |

 | There's no other word but AMAZING! Feb 23, 2007 |
This is the first book I ever read by Karen Kingsbury. Actually, it was the cover that caught my eye but even as I gazed at the picture of the twin towers, I thought to myself, "I....don't know about reading something on this order." I am SO glad I took the plunge because I found out well-written Christian Fiction is the best! Here's a tip. Make sure you have "Beyond Tuesday Morning" waiting in the wings for you'll kick yourself if you don't.
I am now an avid reader of Ms. Kingsbury's work and have a whole shelf dedicated just to her in my own personal library. All I have to do is see her name on a book and it's mine. It is so great to be able to say that about an author, isn't it?
"Oceans Apart" and the "Redemption" series would be my next recommendations to a new Kingsbury fan.
PS I GAVE THIS BOOK 5 STARS BUT THE COUNTER SLIPPED AND I COULD NOT EDIT IT! WHAT A BUMMER. | | |  | Wonderful book that will make your heart hurt. Dec 28, 2006 |
| I have this book in the double book edition that also includes "Beyond Tuesday Morning." The author does a great job writing about what it possibly could have been like in the Towers that day. She writes with sensitivity, but is able to express the raw emotions that many felt that day. More importantly, she is able to weave scripture and biblical insight into the book. Even I had a few "ah ha" moments about my own life in relation the scriptures that were helping the characters. All in all, I love the book, but of course since it deals with 9/11, it brings up sadness and pain that all of us felt on that day. Both the books show the ultimate path to healing and who we are to draw our strength from. I think this would be a good book for anyone who is trying to move past pain in their lives. | | |  | One Tuesday Morning Nov 9, 2006 |
| Boring, unrealistic and duplicative. My book group recommended it and I couldn't even get through it. Obvious ending, ridiculous plot. Don't bother. Read Gods in Alabama for some entertainment. | | |  | Good! Sep 26, 2006 |
| She isn't my favorite author, but I like this book. It gave a different view from what I've seen before. It was very heart felt, and touching. It's worth reading! | | | | Excellent book, but have tissues on hand! Sep 2, 2006 |
This book was excellent. Kingsbury did a wonderful job weaving the story together. It was an excellent look at 9/11 from a faith perspective. Can't wait to read the sequel!
