I really love the cover and title of this novel. It sets the perfect tone for fun, light chick-lit! Lauren Clark has written a novel with quirky, lovable characters and full of surprises. I really enjoyed the feel that I got for the South while reading, so much so that I wanted to go and visit for myself!
If you enjoy a spunky heroine and an "exotic" setting, and the deep South could fall under that label for many, then pack your bags and join Julia on her trip to Eufaula, Alabama!
You can find Dancing Naked in Dixie on Amazon and at your favorite online or local bookstore!

ReplyDeleteEufaula is -- in many ways -- and exotic setting, and if you ever get the chance to visit, the homes and landmarks are lovely! I enjoyed following Julia on her journey and was a little sad to leave Dixie when I wrapped up the storyline :)
Thank you so very much for the thoughtful review! xx, Lauren
