Pickle Perfect

When she loses her job, Lulu’s stable world spins out, but somehow, she finds herself on a “de-stressing” trip to Costa Rica for a pickleball tournament. Maybe an all-inclusive picklecation is just the pick-me-up she needs to loosen her grip?

Or it would have been if she wasn’t backhanded by the sight of Tyler Demming, the disgraced pro of the tennis world.

But Lulu’s had years to steel herself against his rugged good looks and hypnotic charm. Despite the changes she sees in Tyler since their teenage fling, Lulu will have no problem keeping her head in the game and her heart on the sidelines. Or so she tells herself….

About Ilana Long

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, Ziggy’s Big Idea, and her essays appear in multiple books in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series.
