From The Publisher:
It's hard to trust the future... when you've been branded by the past. Rough Riders, Book 6 Tattoo artist India Ellison is well acquainted with preconceived notions. As a walking advertisement for the tattoo shop she's set up in a small Wyoming town, she's used to off-color comments about her colorful tats and hair. Still, life is good. She's clean and sober, dotes on her sister's kids and best of all, spends most of her free time with her best buddy, Colt McKay. Reformed bad boy rancher Colt never expected three years of sobriety to lead to three years of abstinence. Curbing his craving for booze is nothing compared to the ever-increasing craving for his hot-tempered, hot-bodied best friend, India. Too bad she hasn't a clue that Colt's been head-over-bootheels in love with her from day one. After an unexpected, steamy interlude, all India can think about is riding the sexy cowboy as hard and fast as her motorcycle. But Colt is determined to show her a slower ride is worth the wait. The friendship that helped them conquer their past is about to be tested...by the new addiction they feel to each other.
