On the Rox

2020

DTF. Support your local girl gang! Me and my dirty, tough female besties were hell—and tacos on wheels. Who knew that my homemade Shizzle Sauce would be the key ingredient to my happily ever after? Destiny had a wicked sense of humor—that was for sure. After surviving a toxic relationship, I vowed to never let myself be controlled by a man again. With the help of my girl gang, I was rebuilding my life—one taco at a time. My trusty snack wagon—The Pink Taco Truck—hadn’t steered me wrong yet. This time, it led me straight to a hottie restaurant owner with a sexy Australian accent, who just so happened to love my secret sauce. He made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. But that wasn’t the only thing I was unable to turn down. Jay was everything I could ever want in a man, but he wasn’t without heartache of his own. In fact, he’d been around the world, and he had the baggage to prove it. Good thing I was always up for an adventure! On the Rox is book 1 in the DTF series. DTF is an interconnected series of stand-alone rom-coms.

Cream-Pied

2020

DTF. Support your local girl gang! Me and my dirty, tough female besties were stripping it down at The Steamy Clam! I knew that my side hustle as a stripper would pay my bills, but who would have thought the pole life would lead to a proposal? A fake one anyway … Then again, I knew divine intervention when I saw it. And that fake relationship might be the realest thing I’d ever felt. I was minding my business, slaying my goals, living my best life with my girl gang—on my own terms. Love was the last thing on my mind. Marriage just wasn’t in the cards for me. I never considered myself wifey material. Staying at home, baking cookies and washing laundry? Forget it! Then, Weston, with his big heart and bushy beard, snuck his way into my feelings. His family was prim and perfect, and my edgy attitude and I were not. He needed a fiancée to secure his place in the family business, and I needed cash to pay off my debts from a string of mooching exes. This crazy lie was a win-win for both of us. How could I say no?

Just the Tip

2020

DTF. Support your local girl gang! These dirty, tough females were ready to go ALL. THE. WAY. As an artist, I was used to getting creative and thinking outside the box. But this time, I might be in over my head. Or head over heels … I was ready for love. And the life of wedded bliss that was sure to follow. I just hadn’t found the one. Until I found myself doing the horizontal mambo in the backseat of my best friend’s car. Aiden was the hottie Aussie who ran the famous Scarlett Herb restaurant. His shizzle sauce was the perfect condiment for the pink taco truck I worked. I was positive we were just friends until one little plus sign turned our world upside down. I wanted forever, not a baby daddy. Apparently, he hadn’t kept his shizzle sauce to himself. Just the tip? Yeah, right!

Kat Addams
Author · 11 books

Kat Addams is an author of contemporary romantic comedies. She’s had a passion for making readers laugh since she wrote her first over-the-top comic book at the age of eight, earning her high marks and concerning looks from her grade-school teachers. She’s a graduate of the University of Memphis, where she studied English literature and creative writing, and fell in love with the rom-com genre. Her books can be described as equal parts shameless and heartwarming with a heavy dose of heat. When she’s not writing about exotic men and daydreaming of worldly travels, you can find Kat in her hometown of Memphis, drinking craft cocktails on patios and raising her mini-me with a girl-power attitude—but not necessarily in that order. In her downtime, she loves to embark on outdoor adventures, empower other women, and lose herself in good books and good music. Kat satisfies her darker side by writing paranormal romance with wicked humor under the name Fritzi Cox. Fritzi provides Kat with an outlet to cause mayhem and debauchery with an element of suspense. Whether you’re reading a book from either Fritzi or Kat, you’re guaranteed a hilarious adventure. Stalk Kat on social media: Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/authorkatad...
