Gloria, nurse to Alice from book one, has a secret life as shape shifting fox. How can she reveal what she has discovered on her runs through the forest about a saboteur with supernatural powers without revealing her own?
Why I picked this book up: The first book was good enough that I am curious about what has happened and what could happen in this sleepy village.

Bloody Awful continues the story of Brytewood, a cozy English village that is secretly home to several supernatural beings. Brytewood's inhabitants, both human and Other, face an ongoing struggle as German bombs fall from the sky and Nazi vampires infiltrate the town itself. It's the characters that make this series compelling. I had issues with Bloody Good, but wanted to keep reading to find out what happened to the people I'd “met.”

I think that if I had read the first book in the series, I would understand a bit more about what is going on. That said, the farther I progress in the novel, the more I get about the characters.
This is a light paranormal fantasy set in England during WWII. The evil vampires are spies from the Nazi's. Two pixies, a werefox, a dragon, and a couple of witches have to ban together to defeat an inept vampire.

This is the second book in the Brytewood series. This is district nurse Gloria Prewitt's story. She is a werefox who thinks she is different from everyone else in Brytewood, little does she know. There are many otherworldlies in Brytewood. While performing her duties as nurse she is hit and injured by Andrew Barron, the manager of the supposedly secret munitions factory. As she heals she is worried what she will do during the full moon. But she also is falling in love with Andrew while try...more
book 2 of 3... more supernatural creatures in this one including a water sprite and a werefox. I would probably rate the book a little higher if there was evidence of someone proofreading before publication. It appears that through this series, they just ran spellcheck and didn't bother to actually proof the pages... many misused words (if instead of of, and instead of an, in instead of if, etc), tons of incorrect punctuation (especially quotation marks), just general sloppiness that makes the b...more
I really enjoyed the first in the series, BLOODY GOOD , but this one is even better. Alice and Peter are getting married and are only really peripheral in this story. This one is more Gloria, the were-fox, and her dilemma of wanting to help her village and what to do about her growing attraction to the manager of the 'secret' munitions plant on the hill. She knows something is going on with the new baker in town, something sinister, but who can she trust?

Leading directly out of the events set-up in "Bloody Good" we follow our next intrepid otherworldly female into a ditch where she manages to climb out with a lover. However there is also the evil vampire plot to follow and so through various clues and a vast array of side characters and random townsfolk dying of blood loss everything is satisfactorily wrapped up between passionate mating, bombings, and an awful lot of tea consumption.
A light PNR.
I read the first one and liked it enough that I tried book 2. This time around we get to meet some British vampires who are fighting against the Germans. And more German vamps are trying to take out the base in this village, and it falls to the village's supernaurals to save the day.
This was another quick read, but I can't help but think that it needed more. Things are resolved pretty easily again.

I'm half way through this book and loving it! I had the first book for ages and kept putting off reading it because the vampires were bad guys. Finally read it and raced out for the other two books! I don't know if it's me but it seems there are a lot of editorial mistakes in the books that sort of slow down the process but the story makes up for that!
Cute and sweet like the first one. Not too spine-tingling, but a fun read anyway. Both so far have left me wanting a little more action, and the sex isn't too sexy, but I still enjoy the series.
Second book of the Brytewood series by Evans. Still fun - romance/paranormal and historical. Again, nice sense of WW2 time period.
This series was a really fun quick read. Basically WWII British supernaturals fight evil Nazi vampires. Fun, fun, fun, and a pick me up since I am out of Sookie Stackhouse books!
It was a decent read but I wasn't as drawn into this story or the characters as the first story.
Still bad, but I'll read the third...
