Description

It s hard to trust the future when you ve been branded by the past.Rough Riders, Book 6As a walking advertisement for the tattoo shop she s set up in a small Wyoming town, India Ellison is well acquainted with preconceived notions. Despite the odd looks and off-color comments about her off-color hair, 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, cowboy Colt McKay.Reformed bad boy Colt never expected three years of sobriety to lead to three years of abstinence. Curbing his craving for booze and random sexual encounters is nothing compared to the ever-increasing craving for his hot-tempered, hot-bodied best friend, India. Too bad she s his A.A. sponsor. 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 instead of her motorcycle, even when Colt is determined to show her a slower ride is worth the wait.Or are they risking their friendship for a fling that could burn them both?"
