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.
