"HAILEE" book 3 in the Montana Skies series by Penny Zeller: Book Review & Giveaway -WINNER CHOSEN

Here is a really cute picture of author, Penny Zeller, caught signing books.  Penny is a delightful individual that loves to write, loves the Lord, and loves to share.  Today we're going to share a bit about another of her books in the Montana Skies series, Hailee.  After you read a bit about the book and then my thoughts, you can enter the giveaway of a copy of the book Penny has so graciously provided.

Penny Zeller is a dedicated author to the genre of Christian fiction.  She brings strong characters to the scene of her stories and a very strong message of God's love and forgiveness and His grace.

Hailee is the third book in the Montana Skies series.  In books one and two we met sisters McKenzie and Kaydee.  These two had beautiful life stories  filled with the fallen nature of man, the Grace of God, and the forgiveness one can find in each other but mostly in and through God Himself. Hailee is not the third "sister," but she is a lovely young lady who has been redeemed from the ills of society and the sin of her nature and her deeds by the kindness of the teachers she encounters and by the Grace of God.

When Hailee reaches adulthood, she embraces the opportunity to travel to Montana as a teacher in the small community of Pine Haven (home of McKenzie and Kaydee).  She is met by the dashing pastor of the local church, Nate Adams.  Nate's story is another in the Grace and Direction of God in the life of an individual. 

Penny Zeller has truly written a sweet, romantic, tender story that you would not be afraid to place in the hands of your best friend, your tender young lady, or the gentle grandmotherly lady in your community.

Which of the three books in the Montana Skies series is my favorite?  That I can not tell, because they are all good, sweet, and well written and I enjoyed each of them.


Penny loves to hear from her readers at her website, www.pennyzeller.com and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/pennyzellerbooks
