A mom considering divorce, a coffee shop barista angel, and
a mysterious God Blog combine to create an awe-inspiring tale of redemption and
faith. Pastor and author Max Lucado,
with Candace Lee and Eric Newman, has penned a contemporary novel that is easy
to relate to and fun to read. Heroine Chelsea
Chambers is making plans to divorce her unfaithful NFL star husband. She has moved with her two children into her
family home, and is trying to make a go of a coffee shop in the lower level. Though she can make cupcakes like a pro, she
can’t seem to make enough money to keep the shop afloat. Then, a mysterious
barista enters the shop and things begin to happen. The old computer in the corner develops a
straight line to Heaven and the God Blog is born. The Higher Grounds shop
becomes famous as crowds throng in to get their questions answered and buy their
coffee. Of course, this leads to unseen
situations and more problems than Chelsea can handle alone, until she learns
that she is not alone. I highly
recommend this novel. This fast paced
story is funny, sad, and at times complicated, but is difficult to put
down. Twists and turns keep you reading
to see Chelsea’s next move. I received a
complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. I was not required to write
a positive review and the words here are my own.
