About this ebook
The hilarious grumpy x sunshine fantasy rom-com from the New York Times bestselling author and TikTok sensation
‘The slow burn was burning, great twists and turns and one of the rare books that actually made me laugh out loud’ ***** Reader review
‘Hilarious, heart-felt, and wonderful...incredible fairytale fantasy’ ***** Reader review
‘The banter was perfection.’ ***** Reader review
NOTICE TO STAFF: There has been a disturbing increase in cheeriness, sprightly behaviour 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?
But Rennedawn is in grave trouble, and all signs 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?

Three and a half stars. I did really enjoy this ... but in an effort to be clever and twisty there seemed to be a lot of people not really being dead, pretty much everyone is in disguise, and sometimes there needs to be a lot more progression between scenes rather than just abruptly launching into the next adventure, because it feels disjointed. I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley.

Started and finished this one in one day, brilliant story and a whole world to jump right into. Hooked from beginning to end, bravo.
