Are you Team Characters Making Bad Decisions? Do you like reluctant, villain-leaning heroes, morally grey mentors, slow-burn romance, wannabe love triangles (author takes the 5th on whether it actually qualifies), Greek mythology retelling, and dare I say it, snark? Do you want a strong female character who can rescue herself? Then Adventures of a Villain-Leaning Humanoid might be for you!
Called genre-subverting by that one guy on Twitter, this urban fantasy is a 4th wall-breaking, action-packed and fast-paced series about a woman with the power of fear and the villains and heroes she despises equally.

Blurb: Meet Megaera, Meg for short. She’s like Deadpool, except for funner.
For a girl with the power of fear the recruitment attempts from both sides are never-ending. A self-described not-a-hero, villain-leaning humanoid, Meg just wants to live her life, work her dead-end job and have everyone else (especially the heroes) leave her alone. But when a bigger fish who can turn superpowers back on their users enters the picture and threatens the person Meg loves the most (herself), she must turn to the last group of people she would admit she needs help from.
Forced to team up with the heroes she despises (but won’t murder, because let’s face it, orange is not the new black), Meg will have to face the choices from her past that she won’t get therapy for. Self-centered, snarky, sarcastic and a little bit dramatic, she’s going to have to save the world, even if that wasn’t her intention. And try not to get shot in the process. Because that shit hurts.
