About the book:
Miracle at the Higher Grounds Cafe (Thomas Nelson, February 2015) 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.

My Review:
I really enjoyed Max's latest book, "Miracle at the Higher Grounds Café," The title was intriguing when I first saw it and I loved the cover. Once I read the back cover blurb, I was excited to dive right in and read; I was not disappointed! Chelsea is so easy to relate to throughout the book as each day we all have highs and lows and it is so easy to get discouraged and feel as if everyone and everything, including God, is against you. As I read this book, I found myself empathizing with Chelsea and I found this story so inspiring and a great reminder on the power of prayer and found this to be very encouraging. I was also immediately drawn into the story as Max began with describing the coffee shop and the history behind it and the scene was set in my mind and Chelsea on her fourth cup of coffee by 6am was a character I liked right away. I highly encourage everyone to put this book on their must-read list, it is a quick and inspiring read.
