Meg Bloomberg is in a pickle. When Meg's ex turns out to be a total dink, she and her bestie take off for a mood-lifting pickleball excursion to Bainbridge Island. It's supposed to be an easy lob, a way to heal, not the opening serve to a new courtside romance that's doomed to spin out. No matter how Meg tries, she can't shake her feelings for Ethan Fine. A charismatic environmental consultant and Bainbridge local, Ethan seems like the real dill. But when Meg discovers that Ethan is sabotaging her home court, she decides the match is over. It's time for Meg to take control of her own game. And maybe, just maybe... love will bounce back.

Ilana Long first heard about pickleball when her sporty friend confessed that she was addicted to a game that was like ping-pong but standing on the table. Shortly after, Long joined the pickleball craze despite her utter lack of hand-eye coordination. A stand-up and sketch comedy writer and actor, Long studied improv and performed at The Second City in Chicago. She is the author of the picture book, Ziggys Big Idea, and her essays appear in multiple books in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series.
