“Detailed writing style and both characters make enormous progress during the story.”

When your best friend becomes the biggest ‘what if’ of your life.

It is much easier for Charlie Sands to hide behind the lie she’s told herself since the day she met Greyson: a guy like that could never love a smartass tomboy like her.

Greyson Steele knows, no matter how often his mind drifts towards wanting more from his best friend, she deserves a guy who can keep up with her lightning fast mind. And that guy would never be him.

When they both start blowing past the walls they’ve erected over the years, they may just upend everything they believe about the difference between friendship and love.

In an angsty, friends-to-lovers romance about a brilliant, surfing tomboy and her anxious, fireman best-friend, Erin Spineto, author of Islands and Insulin, spins another “Inspiring tale of being just the right balance of strong and vulnerable.” 

You’ll love the hilarious, double-dating summer goal, breezy escape to the beaches of San Diego and Maui, and fantastic group of friends. California Promises is the first in the Warrior Women Series, a RomCom series full of female surfers who happen to have diabetes and other autoimmune issues and the men who are strong enough to be with a warrior woman.

This is an #ownvoices story for its portrayal of type 1 diabetes by an author with type 1 diabetes.
