Assistant to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Evie Sage has lost her job after her previous boss the Blacksmith tried to suggest her job involved more than just admin duties. She is desperate for work because she must support her younger sister and her ailing father.
One day she is wandering in the forest when she comes across and young handsome man being chased and attacked by the King's men. The victim turns out to be none other than the notorious The Villain, although the wanted posters depict him as an old, extremely ugly, man. Despite her initial fear, Evie is desperate enough to agree to work for The Villain as his personal assistant - this girl can put a positive spin on anything!
Once she gets started, Evie finds she really enjoys working for The Villain, even if there is a lot of blood and gore and she has to get used to severed heads suspended from the ceiling! But it soon transpires that there is a spy in their midst, betraying them to the King - can Evie and The Villain expose the traitor?
This was a fun, easy read - imagine Pollyanna assisting an evil (but hot) villain and you can imagine the shenanigans.
