The latest big love for Miss Percy Parker:

Kenda at Lurv a la Mode (a favourite haunt of mine) says this:
If you’ve been looking for something different, this is it. While I’ve encountered similar enough stories, I dare say this is even a fresh twist on the Gothic romance as we know it today. What completely transports the book into its own is the author’s voice and the dramatic way in which the story unfolds.

The Discriminating Fangirl gives Percy Parker an A!
Pamela says:
The Strangely Beautiful Tale… is certainly strangely beautiful, and I had to force myself to put the book down so I could sleep. Set in an alternate Victorian England, where spirits roam the streets and six chosen people safeguard the mortal world from dangerous ghosts, this book is richly imagined and constructed, with fascinating characters and an engrossing storyline.

Romance Book Wyrm calls Percy Parker "hauntingly magnificent"
Amy says:
Oh my, I loved this book. I loved the characters, the sweet, thrilling romance between Alexi and Percy. The beautiful prose that sweep across every single page. Be prepared to be taken away to a London as you've not seen before, and characters so vivid they meld within your heart. Percy is one of the best heroines I've read in a long time. Her innocence and shyness were so refreshing. Yet underneath it all, there is still a strength inside Percy.
The full and glowing review...

A hauntingly good tale, beautifully written. Leanna Renee Hieber has created a dark and magical London. Full of the unexpected. I found both the characters and world compelling. I'm looking forward to what book two will bring.

In Which Miss Percy Parker goes about town giving away her Tale

For as timid as she is, this dear girl is getting around! I owe Miss Percy's travels to a wealth of generous bloggers, authors and reviewers. And she'll only be touring about even more in the days to come! Reviews, interviews, giveaways, oh my!

I hope you'll visit Darque Reviews for perhaps my favourite guest blog of all time, as I discuss my favourite particular about my book, how my beloved hero Alexi smells. All "clove tea and leather-bound books..." Dear Miss Percy discovers this during what is also perhaps my favourite part of my book; the Academy Ball. (Yes, there's an excerpt) Read more.


GIVEAWAY! You have until 8/25 to be one of TWO winners sponsored by Dorchester Publishing to win a signed copy of the book! Just read the post, answer the question, and you're entered.



Darque Reviews has this to say about Miss Percy Parker in Kimberly's recent review:

The Strangely Beautiful Tale of Miss Percy Parker is the first installment in the Strangely Beautiful series and follows the struggles of Percy Parker and Professor Alexi Rychman. Ms. Hieber pulls readers into her historical setting with strong paranormal elements, a touch of mythology, and a wonderfully sweet romance. The Strangely Beautiful Tale of Miss Percy Parker unfolds at a steady pace, introduces unique characters, and provides a magical start to what will surely be an engaging series. This book should appeal to both upper teens and adult readers.

Thanks Darque Reviews!
