Latte Daze by Erynn Mangum ~ 5 stars

Latte Daze
Erynn Mangum
Maya Davis series #2
NavPress Publishing
About the book:
Maya Davis already has many titles—Christian, barista, maid of honor (new), possible girlfriend (newer), aunt (newest)—and her life is about to become even more complicated. Just when she thought things couldn’t get any worse, her ex-boyfriend proposes to her roommate and best friend, Jen. It’s not long until their apartment becomes Wedding Central. As if that weren’t enough, Jen’s obnoxious mom moves in to help plan the wedding, and Maya’s genius brother and sister-in-law announce that they're expecting. Then to top it off, there's the whole matter of Jack—is it love? Who wouldn't need a coffee break!

My review:
Maya is experiencing a lot of changes in her life right now. She is handling them with prayer along with copious amounts of coffee, ice cream, and just sugar in general. I love how Maya is such a real person! She isn’t perfect, but with God’s help she is trying. It reminds me that God is bigger than my problems AND my character flaws. We all need that reminder sometimes. I can’t wait to see what happens next in the Maya Davis series!!
