Description



Book Synopsis



LIMITED FIRST PRINT EDITION―featuring spray-painted edges, while supplies last.

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

ASSISTANT WANTED: Notorious, high-ranking villain seeks loyal, levelheaded assistant for unspecified office duties, supporting staff for random mayhem, terror, and other Dark Things In General. Discretion a must. Excellent benefits.

With ailing family to support, Evie Sage's employment status isn't just important, it's vital. So when a mishap with Rennedawn's most infamous Villain results in a job offer--naturally, she says yes. No job is perfect, of course, but even less so when you develop a teeny crush on your terrifying, temperamental, and undeniably hot boss. Don't find evil so attractive, Evie.

But just when she's getting used to severed heads suspended from the ceiling and the odd squish of an errant eyeball beneath her heel, Evie suspects this dungeon has a huge rat...and not just the literal kind. Because something rotten is growing in the kingdom of Rennedawn, and someone wants to take the Villain--and his entire nefarious empire--out.

Now Evie must not only resist drooling over her boss but also figure out exactly who is sabotaging his work...and ensure he makes them pay.

After all, a good job is hard to find.

Pick-up Series for Sure

Have recommended and purchased this book for others. Such a cute vibe and the 2nd book was just as great. It's like reading about requited lovers but they're stupid. It's perfect

GREAT BOOK BAD PRODUCT

Love love LOVE this book. It was supposed to come with the sprayed edges as shown in the photo and it didn’t. I was absolutely devastated because the other in the book in the series was delivered the way it was supposed to be :(

Not as advertised

I thought I was getting the sprayed edges but did not. I then was sent another book that also did not have sprayed edges… this photo is misleading and should be taken down if they are out of sprayed edges.

No sprayed edge

No sprayed edges. Bought first and second book. So now I have one with sprayed edges and one without. They should pull this listing if they’re already out of the sprayed edges…. One star for false advertising.

No sprayed edges; change the picture, Target

Wish I would have looked at the reviews before I purchased. I purchased for the sprayed edges as well, but got a regular copy. I’ll be taking it back.

Misleading marketing

I specfically purchased a copy from target because I was excited for the sprayed edges. Received a regular copy that I could have purchased from Amazon for cheaper.
very disappointed

Dont by the book if you want sprayed edges

I love the book but was really disappointed when it came in the mail because the description said it would be the first edition with sprayed red edges. And my copy doesn’t have spraying edges 😡

No Sprayed Edges

Nothing against the book itself, but online target is advertising the sprayed edges :( I was very sad when it arrived and didn’t have the edges.

No red sprayed edges

I should have read the reviews before buying - this book doesn’t have the red sprayed edges. Which is fine but when you’re expecting to get something like that it’s disappointing when you don’t get it.

Kingsley made this

Assistant to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer was a cute start to the series. There was great character development throughout the book and I liked seeing the characters grow. The animals of myth and lore in the book may have been my favorite part. Kingsley hands down provided much needed comedic relief. Maehrer’s writing created emotional connections to characters on both sides of the spectrum. Some I loved and would be devastated to see anything happen to while others I loathed to their core. Overall I had a hard time staying focused on the book and found myself switching between this series and another. I will definitely be reading the next book in the series and I look forward to its release.

The product doesn't match the description.

The listing shows the book with sprayed edges, and it is described as such. However, I got a regular copy of the book, which is disappointing. I would have ordered elsewhere to get the copy I wanting but now it's too late, and it's sold out everywhere. Ither then the product description being incorrect the Book itself came in good condition and arrived quickly.

Solid start

I really like the atmosphere and setting of this book! The cliffhanger was DEVASTATING as I have to now wait until August for the next book! I hope the next installment resolves it quickly and there isn't another one!

AMAZING 4.25 READ

This was such a good book even though it is super hyped up I can’t wait for the next book and to see her change. I would like to see more romance which I think we can all predict in the next book considering all that happens between them. This book is worth buying if you want to have a thrilling fantasy with some romance, I also finished this in one day.
