Chelsea Chambers has just moved back to San Antonio Texas.
Her
mother has passed away and left her the family legacy, The
Higher
Grounds Cafe. She is with her two children, having left
her has-been
football star husband and his cheating ways. He is also
the king of bad
investments and is now broke. Fifteen million dollars gone
already?
Seriously? Chelsea only finds out because she has just
received a letter
from the IRS that there are back taxes due on the cafe.
She has thirty days
to come up with $86,000 or they are coming to seize her
assets. MIRACLE
AT THE HIGHER GROUNDS CAFE is the perfect way to spend the
afternoon. You will be hooked from the very first page
and wait until you
read what happens with Chelsea and how she gets help from
angels up
above.
Manny arrives just in time to help Chelsea out. He is her
newest employee
at The Higher Grounds Cafe and he comes up with some great
ideas for
helping the business. He convinces Chelsea to try out a
new router for
their internet at the cafe and this is where the fun
begins. It seems the
router only has one Internet address it can access. The
God Blog concept
is really funny. Its something that most people would be
very welcome to. I
mean, who wouldn't want to ask God one question and have
it answered?
Customers come running by the hundreds to ask their
question and at first,
Chelsea doesn't think the website is going to help, but
she soon realizes
that her business is taking off and maybe there really is
a light at the end of
the tunnel. MIRACLE AT THE HIGHER GROUNDS CAFE will have
you
falling in love with Manny and all his quirkiness and
cheering on Chelsea
and all those who care about and love her.
MIRACLE AT THE HIGHER GROUNDS CAFE is all about love,
forgiveness, and of course, coffee. I was instantly
caught up in Chelsea's
life and her problems. My heart broke for her and all she
was going
through. Keep a box of tissues close by while reading all
about Chelsea
and her customers and of course, Manny! Grab a big cup of
coffee, your
favorite blanket, this wonderful story and be prepared to
finish in one or two
sittings. Max Lucado does not preach his story, but
rather shows you the
beauty of faith and forgiveness. We can all use a little
help in our daily
lives. We just have to learn how to ask for it.
What if you could ask God anything? What would you ask?
And
how would he answer?
Chelsea Chambers is on her own. After a public split from
her NFL superstar husband, Chelsea takes a bold step out
of
the limelight and behind the counter of the Higher Grounds
Café, an old-fashioned coffee shop in dire need of
reinvention. But when her courage, expert planning, and
out-of-this-world cupcakes fail to pay the bills, this
newly
single mom finds herself desperate for help. Better yet, a
miracle.
Then a curious stranger lands at Chelsea's door, and with
him, an even more curious string of events. Soon,
customers
are flocking to the Higher Grounds Café, and not just for
the cupcakes and cappuccino. They've come for the internet
connection to the divine. Now the café has become the go-
to
place for people in search of answers to life's biggest
questions.
When a catastrophe strikes and her ex comes calling,
Chelsea
begins to wonder if the whole universe is conspiring
against
her quest to make it on her own. After a shocking
discovery
opens her eyes to the unseen world around her, Chelsea
finds
the courage to ask, and heaven answers in a most
unexpected way.
