Book description
Accomplice to the Villain (B&N Exclusive Edition)
The Assistant and the Villain #3 - Hannah Nicole Maehrer
If you've ever imagined a fairy-tale world where the kingdom's most feared tyrant has an office-complete with paper-stacking, coffee spills, and a grumpy frog on his desk-then this book is your new favorite. Maehrer takes her wildly popular TikTok series and turns it into a novel that feels as fresh as a freshly brewed cup of office coffee.
The B&N Exclusive edition gives you a splashy new cover, spray-painted edges, and two bonus chapters that let us peek behind the curtain from Kingsley's point of view and the villain's own twisted musings. Those extras are pure gold for fans who want to dive deeper into the characters' inner worlds.
Evie Sage, our sunshine assistant, is suddenly entangled in a prophecy, assassins popping up in the break room, and an army of crowned frogs that seem to judge her every move. She's trying to keep her dignity (and the kingdom) from burning-while also navigating a crush on her brooding, sharp-jawed boss. Maehrer balances this high-stakes plot with snarky humor so effortlessly that you'll laugh out loud even as you're clutching your office chair.
The story is built around a clever premise: what if the villain's right-hander was just trying to do paperwork? The result is an office comedy that feels like Once Upon a Time meets The Office, but with a magical twist. Evie's sarcasm and dry wit keep the pacing lively, while the villain's darker side adds depth without sacrificing the lighthearted tone.
If you're new to the series, start at Book 1. But if you already know Evie's misadventures, this third installment delivers more of the charm that made the first two such hits. Maehrer proves she can juggle prophecy, romance, and a squad of judgmental frogs without ever losing her comedic edge.
In short, Accomplice to the Villain is a delightful blend of fantasy, workplace satire, and romance-an irresistible read for anyone who loves a good laugh with their magic.
