Synopsis

A novel about perseverance, fair play and human decency.

When Lucie Sampson's best friend disappears at the end of fourth grade, she finds herself defenseless against her bullies. Born with hip dysplasia, Lucie's unusual gait has made her a target for teasing most of her young life. But the first time she sees a tennis match, a whole new freedom appears on the horizon.

Encouraged by her father, Lucie heads to college with the hope of playing competitive tennis. But before she can set foot on campus, a debilitating accident derails her dreams. As she learns to contend with injury and prejudice, Lucie finds strength in new friendships as she fights for a place back on the court.

When her father's most closely guarded secret comes to light, Lucie is exposed to dangers she never anticipated. With more than tennis on the line, the spirit of sportsmanship rewards her with an unexpected finale and, quite certainly, a winning set.
