From the author of horror comes something completely different: a warm, witty novel about grief, tacos, and the family you choose.

Kendra is twenty-nine, broke, and emotionally attached to a taco stand she never wanted. When her aunt Rosa dies and leaves her the struggling business, she has sixty days to turn it around or lose everything.

The problem? She doesn't know how to cook.

Enter Eddie. He's been fired from three kitchens, once threw a spoon at a wall, and currently sleeps in his car. He's also the only person who remembers Rosa's recipes.

Together, they are a disaster.

But somewhere between the cold tortillas, the forgotten cilantro, and a viral TikTok video featuring a man eating a single lime, something shifts. The line gets longer. The regulars start showing up. A nine-year-old artist named Miles draws the stand every day. A rival owner named Marisol stops being an enemy. A teenager with purple hair makes them famous.

And when the landlord threatens to sell the lot, the neighborhood shows up in ways Kendra never expected.

Taco 'Bout a Mess is a story about failing, trying again, and the people who refuse to let you give up. It's about grief that doesn't drown you. About second chances for people who have run out of them. About a blue tarp, a broken sign, and the radical act of showing up - same time tomorrow.
