Can you love someone and hate them at the same time?

Divorce is splintering thirteen-year-old Kylee Strong's family. She wants nothing more than her dad's approval. However, his emotional and physical abuse confuses her. What do you do when someone who is supposed to love you, hurts you instead? She believes making an elite golf team will finally impress her father. But when her position on the team drives yet another wedge between them, she finds herself turning to a retired teacher for guidance: Nancy Henson.

Kylee must decide if her need to earn her father's love outweighs her desire to protect her little brother. She discovers unexpected strength in newfound friendships, but is she strong enough to forgive her dad? God? Or herself?

Kylee's Quest is an inspiring coming-of-age story that doesn't shy away from difficult subject matter. If you enjoyed Wish by Barbara O'Connor, The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise by Dan Gemeinhart, or Mike Lupica's work . . . you will love Kylee's Quest. Filled with humor, heartache, and hope, Kelly Strenge's debut novel is sure to become a fan favorite.
