Evie has always tried to be helpful, loyal, and only mildly involved in treason. But with a dangerous prophecy threatening the very magic of Rennedawn \u2013 not to mention the race to claim its necessary artifacts before King Benedict does \u2013 things are starting to feel\u2026 less like a career path and more like a serious problem.<\/p>\n
The prophecy won\u2019t stop pointing in Evie\u2019s direction. The Villain\u2019s magic keeps choosing her. And honestly, if you\u2019re going to be accused of evil anyway, you might as well commit.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, the more Evie leans into her alleged villain era, the more her boss starts acting like the hero of a completely different story. Trystan is getting closer \u2013 closer than is wise, advisable, or even remotely professional \u2013 and looking at her like she\u2019s already chosen a side. His.<\/p>\n
Which is deeply inconvenient, because if Evie can\u2019t save the kingdom\u2019s magic, she might just become its greatest threat.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
