Ride Dirty, Cowboy

Bull rider Kai has never forgiven himself for the accident that took his best friend's life and left Addie injured — Addie, the girlfriend he's secretly been in love with all along. After the accident, small-town journalist Addie, who grew up in foster care after her parents abandoned her, takes a high-stakes assignment covering the American rodeo tour to honor her friend's legacy, putting her back in Kai's path. Convinced Kai hates her, Addie slowly uncovers the truth: he's been hiding his feelings for reasons that could cost him everything once they finally come out.

Elle Thorpe continues the Dirty Cowboy series with a BWWM rodeo romance built on grief, guilt, and secrets years in the making.
