     Mandy: I won a trip to a beautiful resort in the Blue Ridge mountains. I thought it was going to be the perfect vacation until things took a turn for the worst. My best friend bailed on me at the last minute and the resort looked like something out of a horror movie. It definitely didn't look like the paradise I saw in the brochure. The only saving grace was Red, a rough man with a grizzled voice that set my heart on fire. He was unbelievable hot, with muscles as big as the mountain itself. He made me question my innocence and put thoughts in my head that no virgin should have. All of that happened before he leaned in and told me that he was going to claim me as his own. Red: I found solace in the Blue Ridge mountains when I returned home after having enough of the so-called real world. My family's resort was a disaster and I was determined to rebuild it. I never imagined I would end up with an unexpected guest. Her delicious curves drew me in. Her luscious lips needed to be crushed beneath mine. I didn't care if she was untouched. I didn't care if she was pure. She needed a rough man's touch and I was going to give it to her. I wasn't just going to be her first, I was going to be her last. Kelli's Note: If you're looking for insta-love and suspense, you're in the right place. My job is to make your panties melt if you forgot to leave them at the door. If that is what you're looking for, then you definitely want to dream about a Real Rough Man tonight.
