Description

"An engaging love story about finding strength in vulnerability." ―Kirkus Reviews

NOTICE TO STAFF: There has been a disturbing increase in cheeriness, sprightly behavior, and overall optimism of late. Please resume your former dark, ominous terrors at your earliest convenience. —Mgmt


Evie Sage has never been happier to be the assistant to The Villain. Who would have thought that working for an outrageously handsome (shhh, bad for his brand) evil overlord would be so rewarding? Still, the business of being bad is demanding, the forces of good are annoyingly persistent, and said forbidding boss is somewhat…er, out-of-evil-office.

But Rennedawn is in grave trouble, and all signs—Kingsley’s included—point to catastrophe. Something peculiar is happening with the kingdom’s magic, and it’s made The Villain’s manor vulnerable to their enemies...including their nemesis, the king.

Now it’s time for Evie to face her greatest challenge: protecting The Villain’s lair, all of his nefarious works, and maybe (provided no one finds out) the entire kingdom. No pressure, Evie.

It’s time to step out of her comfort zone and learn new skills. Like treason. Dagger work. Conspiring with the enemy. It’s all so…so…delightfully fun.

But what happens when the assistant to The Villain is ready to become his apprentice?

The Assistant and the Villain series is best enjoyed in order.

    These books make me laugh so hard and warm my heart. The character development is great, the story is comical and sweet, there is great slow burn angsty romance, the world building is great and you end up falling in love with it all. I can’t wait for more from this author!!!

    First book was alright. This one was all over the place with the plot, and yet a bit too boring for me. I don’t think I’ll be reading the next one. Felt like the story could’ve ended already but just wanted to make it a series to make more money.

    This book is chicken soup for the soul. A delight to read, lovely characters, I laughed aloud countless times, tears may have been shed, writing was engaging. I could not put this down for long. This is the Shrek 2 of the series. The writing, the character development, the humor, the “aww” moments, the plot twists, the shady characters, the memorable characters… it’s all there in the best way it can present itself. A fun, refreshing read that left me wanting more but also content with where the story is at and where it’s heading (hopeful a “happily ever after”? Please and thank you!)

    This was everything I could want and more! The only negative thing I could think about it is the fact that it isn’t a completed series yet.. but that’s a me problem and definitely not a reason to put off reading!!
