Bookroo's summary

Thirteen-year-old Kelly Conroy is ready to lead her softball team to victory, but a sudden team switch throws her plans into chaos. As she struggles to hit against a formidable new pitcher, Kelly also grapples with her mom's new boyfriend, who disrupts her home life. Can Kelly find her footing both on and off the field, or will these unexpected changes derail her championship dreams? With everything on the line, Kelly must navigate these challenges to reclaim her path to success.
