**I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review** 

Is it possible to reduce the amount of workplace violence in an organization run by vampires and werewolves? Sofia Engle, the new Employee Relations Manager at Cader House Hospital is about to find out, and she may not like the answer, or the series of firsts she experiences: first human employee at Cader House, first day tardy, first kiss with a dead guy. Well, maybe kissing the dead guy wasn't the worst of it after all.

For nearly 600 years Dragomir Petrescu has fought for The Alliance. As one of the most skilled warriors the Alliance has ever seen he's killed a lot of people and won many difficult battles. But his newest human adversary is turning out to be a worthier opponent than any he's met. Just the scent of her disarms him, never mind her endless policies and silly ideals about civility.

Can he possibly keep her safe from Alliance enemies, hospital employees and himself? The term Employee Relations is about to have a whole new meaning. 

This is definitely an exciting new series from Jordan K Rose!
First let me start by saying I love this cover, and the model is PERFECT for Dragomir, lol. I really enjoyed this book, as always you know I love me some action on the streets  and the in sheets, lol. Dragomir and Sofia start off a little rough.  Being in the supernatural world is pretty new to Sofia, so when she meets Dragomir and is hit with some unexpected feelings towards him, she reacts the only way she knows how, by turning her feelings around to try to dislike him. Though as we all know, that never works, lol but it always makes for a better "session" when it finally happens. ;) 
Sofia is the newly appointed Human Relations Manager at Cader House Hospital, though that position is a little difficult for her to handle, lol.  Dragomir is hired to be Sofia's bodyguard. since the impending war is getting closer and the human casualties are piling up, but that doesn't really make her happy since he is the  least likely person she wanted to guard her. She soon finds out that he is the best person for the job, not only outside of Cader but inside too. 
I loved Dragomir, not only for his Alpha role but he is  very honorable and loyal too. Sofia on the other hand sort of gets on my nerves a bit.  Female characters who always have to go through the drama before they finally realize that what other people are doing and saying are not only correct but  for their own benefit, usually annoy me, though it still made for an interesting and entertaining read, lol. Sofia eventually finds her balance in the supernatural world and at Cader House Hospital with her sexy bodyguard. ;) 

Black Magic Rose was such a great read, I'm definitely looking forward to reading this series.

Blog Tour Stop and Review: The Demon Mistress By: Jordan K Rose

The Demon Mistress Blog Tour 

with Author Jordan K Rose 

& The Mistress herself, Eva Prim 

I’m absolutely delighted to have the first stop on The Demon Mistress blog tour be Bitten By Paranormal Romance.  Of course, I’d love to be the one to chat, but for this tour I’m stepping back to let the star of The Eva Prim Series take the reigns.

As Eva celebrates the launch of the first book in the Eva Prim Series she’s decided to open her tour with a topic of great importance to her.

Friendship

Thanks, Jordan. I’ll take it from here.

Friendship is not one-sided.

Oh, and I should say, thank you Jordan for your friendship.

Anyway, friendship is not one-sided. And I actually believe even though you may live hundreds or thousands of years you should see your friends more than once a century. You should keep up with each other’s happenings, good and bad.

You should visit.

In the age of computers you could at last Skype.

Vampires, I’m talking to you. You could have friends for eternity. Come out of your caves and visit. Bring a nice box of chocolates and go see your pals. Don’t be such a stiff.

Good friends are so hard to find.

Am I right or am I right?

This is my first blog tour and I just found out there are gifts to be given, well, prizes. Though, today being my birthday I wouldn’t mind a gift in spite of the fact that everyone keeps telling me to knock it off about expecting gifts.

Anyway, today’s prize is an Eva Prim Prize pack, which includes all sorts of stuff I love (because why not?). But that’s just for US residents. If the winner is from outside The States, I’m sending a $10 Amazon Gift Card, which you can use to buy things I love.

Fine, use it to buy things you love, but remember, we are friends and I am giving you a prize. The least you could do is return the favor. It’s just a suggestion. 

For updates on my books, me, my short stories and loads of other valuable items join my Snack of the Week Club at http://evaprim.com/snackofWeek.html. I’d love to have you! (in the club, not just as a snack.)

What’s a girl to do when she discovers her husband, who happens to be the Master Vampire for the New England Region, has been lying to her for, oh, say a hundred and eighty years?

Well, it all depends. If she’s accidentally released forty demons from some creepy old book, unintentionally announced the existence of vampires on The Internet, kidnapped a werewolf, enraged a lovesick vampire by stealing his approved mate, and attracted the attention of The High Commander for The Vampire Federation, not to mention gotten stoned and mastered the forbidden art of demon calling, she might be willing to call it even.

Or, she might plead her case at an Inquisition and hope like all hell, she isn’t staked before sunrise. Eh, a slightly busier night than usual, but nothing Eva Prim can’t handle.

I loved it!! Eva / Chrissie was the funniest female character I've ever read about!! It was like reading a modern day paranormal version of I Love Lucy. It was awesome! Stefan, Eva's sexy Vampire husband, is a little over protective of Eva, so when he is out on business, he leaves her home alone, and locked in. It sounds mean, but he has his reasons, lol. To help with her boredom he buys her a laptop, so she starts a blog, and that is when things get a little crazy. She is also given a gift, a couple of Demon friends, actually some of the ones she let out of the book by mistake. Eva goes on, what she thinks, is a life saving mission of one of her blog friends.  But what she really does is cause havoc in her husband's territory and is the most sought vampire from everyone. lol And the more she tries to help, the deeper she digs her "grave". lol 
Demons Mistress was  a great read, it was more like a Paranormal Comedy. Just totally awesome and well deserving of the 5 start rating. I love thrillers, suspenseful, action, and lust filled Paranormal stories, but I also like when someone throws a different spin on things and gives it a fresh look.
I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did. :)

Characterfest inteview # 17 with Jordan K Rose

Please welcome author Jordan K Rose 

Laurie, thanks so much for having us on Bitten by Paranormal Romance. We’re really looking forward to meeting your readers. After some debate we’ve decided that Lucia will interview Vittorio for Characterfest. I’ll apologize up front if he’s a bit gruff and this turns out to be more of a monologue. He’s been cranky lately.  

*Vittorio grumbles*

“Hi.” *Lucia waves* “I’m Lucia Dico—“

“Della Caccia,” Vittorio interrupts. “Our last name is Della Caccia.” 

*Lucia grimaces.* “Right. I forget. Sorry. I haven’t used that last name in this lifetime. Jordan, you know he’s pretty sensitive about the last name issue.” *rubs Vittorio’s arm*

“Right. I do recall that coming up in another interview.”

“Jordan, I’m sure if you spoke to your husband he’d feel the same.” Vittorio glances from me to Lucia.

*smiles* “Right. I’m sure he would want me to use the proper last name. Lucia, why don’t you ask those questions we discussed before Vittorio turns this into a debate?”

“I’d love to.” *turns to face Vittorio* “So, Vittorio, please tell us a little something about yourself.” *smiles intently at Vittorio*

*sighs and raises an eyebrow*
