About Kimily Kay

Her Story

Kimily Kay, longtime adventurer, friend of youth, and storyteller now presents her first novel, Samuri & Jewel, The Forbidden Friendship.  Kimily was always on the lookout for books of intriguing wonder, friendship, quest, and faith. When her children were young, she gathered them together to spend evenings curled up in their country home reading aloud. If a storm- tossed night blew out the electricity, she whispered made-up stories to them by candlelight. As her children grew, storybooks and novels were joined by her family’s ventures in camping and short-term mission trips.

Though writing a novel was never on Kimily’s radar, the Lord was preparing her all along. When Samuri and Jewel suddenly appeared in her mind’s eye, she knew she had to tell their story.  Like her main characters, Kimily loves friendship, courage, frothy hot drinks, long hikes, lakes, and secret places with God.   

Kimily Kay makes her home in the sun-splashed state of Colorado where she enjoys paddle boarding, drinking tea, and wandering along paths interspersed with trees and sweet mountain vistas.
