Hannah Nicole Maehrer
Assistant to the Villain
Hannah Nicole Maehrer's cozy fantasy romantic comedy series, begun as a viral TikTok serial and published by Entangled's Red Tower imprint. In the kingdom of Rennedawn, Evie Sage needs work badly enough to accept a job offer from Trystan Maverine — the realm's most feared Villain — and finds the role comes with dungeon paperwork, office politics and an inconvenient crush on her terrifying, temperamental boss. Pitched as "Once Upon a Time meets The Office", the books follow Evie and the Villain as a rot spreading through Rennedawn draws them deeper into each other's schemes.
The series is designed to be read in publication order, starting with "Assistant to the Villain," followed by "Apprentice to the Villain," and then "Accomplice to the Villain." Each book continues the overarching narrative.
Yes, the author has confirmed plans for at least one more book in the series, continuing the story of Evie and the Villain.
Currently, the Assistant to the Villain series is a standalone narrative and does not directly connect to other published works by Hannah Nicole Maehrer.
