Naked Edge by Pamela Clare

Kat James is a native American who is hauled out of an inipi ceremony by her hair when an apparent complaint is made by locals and the Boulder police take it upon themselves to break it up instead of calling upon the park rangers. This incident not only reunites her with the handsome Ranger Gabe, who rescued her when she fell from a cliff a few months before, but also makes Kat determined to find out the truth behind what she believes are false claims of disturbance reports about the inipi ceremony, and promptly begins a news campaign about the native people and the importance of their beliefs and ceremonies. However, soon things take a very sinister turn and Kat finds herself the target of a malicious and determined killer. 

This one is very well researched but I felt the native american twist had a more personal element as well, an understanding, that really made this story great. Kat is a very different character from the others in the series, although each character has their individuality, Kat is  a spiritual person who cares deeply about and practices native tribal traditions. She's unlike anyone else, and that makes her very real for the reader.
