South, book 2.
Lucy
escapes an abusive marriage and moves to Clifton, Tennessee, looking for a

the bedroom, or the feelings he awakens.
When
Lucy’s ex-husband proves he’s unwilling to allow his reign of terror to end
along with the marriage, she must learn to set her fears aside and place her
trust—and her body—in Dalton’s hands.
Inside
Scoop: Lucy is a curvy heroine who has never felt beautiful until she
finds herself in Dalton’s strong arms. However, her memories of abuse and his
protective instincts may be triggers for some readers with the same background.

erotic romance from Ellora’s Cave
Review:
Sinful Southern Hero is the second book in the Sinful
South series and can be read as a standalone. S.J. Drum has done a great job in this story
about Lucy and Dalton.
Lucy
is running from her abusive ex and the parents who didn't believe her and chose
his side. Lucy picks Clifton, Tennessee
as the place to start her new life, what she didn't expect was Dalton and his
all too hard to handle Alpha attitude. What
Lucy does know is that her life is about to change and she doesn't know if she
is ready.
Dalton’s
life just got tipped upside down by a cute little package named Lucy and he
will overcome anything to make her his forever.
After a slight misunderstanding between the both of them they must
decide if what they have is worth fighting for. S.J. Drum did an excellent job with every
aspect of this story, I truly enjoyed it and felt all the emotion Lucy had to
fight or embrace to figure out what she really wanted. Dalton was one hundred percent Alpha, and
sometimes I wanted to smack him upside the head, but in a loving way. There is a great flow to the story and the
characters are very well developed and the secondary characters are also
engaging and funny. All in all, this
story is very well written and I look forward to the other stories to come from
the series and also the author.
