"Home in Montana" Tells a Story of Faith, Trust and New Beginnings
Lee Jennings' Christian romance mystery novel follows a woman whose fresh start brings new relationships, personal challenges and unexpected adventure
LILLINGTON, N.C., Sept. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Author and former journalist Lee Jennings has released "Home in Montana," a Christian romance novel based in North Carolina with a tribute to Montana. The book is centered on Allie, a woman beginning a fresh chapter in a new home while wondering if her heart will ever be the same again. As she settles in, she meets a young girl who lives across the street and the girl's kind, fun-loving father. Between new friendships, health challenges, a missing friend and unexpected trouble, Allie soon realizes her fresh start may bring more adventure than she imagined.
As Allie's life takes unexpected turns, she faces questions about trust, relationships and what she wants for her future. Along the way, she navigates health issues and unwanted contact from her ex-husband, often turning to faith and Scripture for guidance. Through Allie's experiences, Jennings examines what it means to find the courage to move forward, trust again and discover the people and places that begin to feel like home.
"This story captures my love for family and the intrigue of loving someone, with the assurance that all things really do work together for good to those who don't lose faith along the way," Jennings said. "The plot thickens with mystery and a couple of villains, but life's adventures always lead home, wherever that may be."
"Home in Montana" is intended for everyone, focusing on women and teen girls, Christian readers and those drawn to stories about relationships and the possibility of finding love again. Jennings also hopes the book connects with readers living with OCD, thyroid issues or other health challenges, offering a story that reflects some of the personal struggles they may encounter.
"I want readers to know that no matter what challenges they are facing, trust in God always gives us the strength we need," Jennings said. "Scripture is an important part of Allie's journey, and I hope it gives readers the same sense of encouragement and support."
