THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES

Accolades:
Goodreads Choice Award finalist 2025: Readers' Favorite Romantasy ¿ Likewise Choice Award finalist ¿ Spotify Best Romantasy Audiobooks of 2025 recommendation

Once Upon a Time meets The Office in Hannah Nicole Maehrer's laugh-out-loud viral TikTok series turned novel, about the sunshine assistant to an Evil Villain...and their unexpected romance.

REWARD OFFERED: Apprentice to The Villain wanted for treason (light), magical property damage (alleged), and one incident involving a weaponized scone (accurate). Frequently seen with a grumpy frog (crowned, judgmental). Answers to "Evie" or "Stop that."

Evie Sage didn't mean to become the right-hand woman to the kingdom's most terrifying villain. One minute, she was applying for an entry-level position that promised "light paperwork and occasional beheadings," and the next, she was knee-deep in magical mayhem, murder plots, and an entirely inappropriate crush on her brooding, sharp-jawed, walking disaster of a boss.

Now, with a magical prophecy unraveling, assassins showing up in the break room, and a suspicious amount of frogs wearing crowns, Evie has to figure out how to survive her job without setting the kingdom on fire-or her dignity, which is hanging by a very sarcastic thread.

Being evil-adjacent was never part of the five-year plan. But then again...neither was falling for The Villain.

A magical office comedy with grumpy bosses, snarky frogs, and definitely-not-feelings.

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

Ganz und gar wundervoll
Evie und der Schurke setzen noch immer alles daran, die gesamte Prophezeihung über die Rettung von Rennedawns Magie zu enthüllen und deren einzelne Elemente zu finden. Dazu gehört unter anderem die Befreiung des weiblichen Guivren, bevor das Junge zur Welt kommt. Auch Frosch Kingsley soll jetzt endlich wieder zum Prinzen werden. Alle romantischen Beziehzngen entwickeln sich endlich weiter -hurra! Außerdem mangelt es nicht an Attentaten, herabstürzenden Körpern, magischen Detonationen, zweideutigen Bemerkungen, Chaos, Teeparties und atemberaubenden Twists. Zudem werden neue Geheimnisse der Familien Maverine und Sage aufgedeckt. Band 3 übertrifft in meinen Augen noch die beiden ersten Bücher. Einige neue POV sind hinzugekommen, die ich sehr genossen habe. Es war einfach phänomenal gut!

Chaotic, twisty, addictive 🐸🪧
The writing is once again funny, fast-paced, and full of chaos, with lovable characters and POV switches that make the story even more engaging. I especially enjoyed Evie’s, the villain’s, and finally Kingsley’s perspective. While the middle dragged a little at times and the ending felt slightly rushed, the final chapters completely made up for it. The last twists were shocking, emotional, and left me desperately wanting the finale. Overall, a very entertaining third installment that definitely renewed my excitement for the last book.
