“Loved it! The continuation of book one does not disappoint. Still just as much fun with laugh out loud moments. And the chemistry? Still sizzling! I savored this one instead of flying through it. ”

“Welcome back to the company of your favorite (not-so) villainous crew! *evil chuckle* Things are starting to heat up! (Literally - Fluffy can breathe fire now!) I am tickled that the second installment of the Assistant to the Villain series absolutely delivered! This book is just as, if not more, fun, quirky, and satisfying as book one. Bonus! We've got a little evil origin story unfolding that is simply delightful. I love The Villain and Evie, of course, but the side characters really got to shine in this story with new POVs. And Kingsley will forever have my heart. <3 I love this story and series - I can't wait to see where it goes. It is the perfect mix of fantasy, slow-burn romance, and found family. If you need a cozy book to listen to and sweep you away, listen to these books on Libro.fm! Em Eldridge does a great job at narrating the story and creating different personalities for each character. ”

Summary
NOTICE TO STAFF: There has been a disturbing increase in cheeriness, sprightly behavior, and overall optimism. 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, 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 . . . out-of-evil-office.
But Rennedawn is in 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, his nefarious works, and maybe 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?
