In the neon glow of 90s Kamloops, what happened in 'The Loops' was meant to stay there-forever, or so blonde, curvy, college kid, Jesse Digger thought. For years, she and her redheaded bestie, Jaime Frame, lived by that unspoken rule, their wild adventures and youthful missteps bound by the sacred "Pinky Swear." But when her best friend dies suddenly and tragically, Jesse's world is upended.
Plunged into a whirlwind of grief and unanswered questions, Jesse is forced to confront the truths she's spent years burying beneath late-night laughter and hazy memories of her 20s. Through a series of flashbacks to the hedonistic, vibrant 1990s in the heart of Kamloops, British Columbia-"The Loops"-she pieces together the fractured puzzle of their past.
As Jesse untangles the chains of secrecy that once held her and her friend together, she discovers the weight those promises carried-and the toll they exacted. Along the way, she redefines what it means to be a hot, single, unapologetic Canadian woman of the '90s, embracing a new vision of friendship, freedom, and self-acceptance.
Pinky Swear is a raw, compelling exploration of friendship, loss, and the courage it takes to reclaim your truth. Perfect for fans of Daisy Jones & The Six and Wild, this novel will stay with you long after the final page.
Dare to break the silence. Dare to remember. Dare to make a new promise-to yourself.
