We Could Be Villains
Description
Avoid spoilers. Don't get fired. Defeat a not-so-fictional supervillain?
Seventeen-year-old fangirl Rosemary Collins lives for VIGIL & ANTE Studios movies. From action-packed superhero fights to sweet character moments, she's here for it all. But in a real-life crossover no one saw coming, the fandom's heartthrob supervillain, Ironfall, isn't as fictional as the film studio wants her to believe. Beyond the glamorous red carpet lies the government's most guarded secret: the movies are real.
Armed with a devilish grin and a wit as sharp as his knives, Ironfall needs her help, and refusing means he'll kill her parents. Her only other option involves spying on him for the government's secret superhero division. Suspended between fact and what she thought was fiction, Rosemary must join her heroes and create an impenetrable web of lies-or guarantee her parents' safety as she watches the world burn at its adored villain's hand.
Perfect for fans of pop culture and comics, WE COULD BE VILLAINS packs an entire cinematic universe into a book. Join Rosemary and the not-so-fictional heroes (and villains!) of the VIGIL & ANTE films in this imaginative science fiction where superhero battles equal publicity stunts, fictional characters become family, and the villain just might steal your heart.

About the Author
Reviews
Is it really possible for an author to mix superheroes (and villains), secret agents, theatre, and big screen, movie magic all into one novel? Well, yes, apparently it is! Mccullough does all of the above and more in her sci-fi, debut novel, We Could be Villains. And I think young adult readers, no matter their preferred genre, are going to love this tale! (I did, and I almost exclusively read fantasy.) This story is the perfect blend of seedling romance, high-stakes espionage, and magical superhero escapades. You will be on the edge of your seat, maybe even biting your nails sometimes, but for the most part, you'll probably just be glued to the pages because of the heartthrob supervillain, Ironfall. Yes, he's hot. Yes, you'll sympathize with him. And yes, you'll probably fall in love with him. Anywho, all that to say, GO, READ, THIS, BOOK! Micheline Ryckman, author of The Maiden Ship trilogy
"We Could Be Villains gives you everything you want in a superhero book and more. What could be better than your favorite fandom coming to life? Everyone can relate to a protagonist like Rosemary. You'll find yourself rooting for her, hurting with her, and fangirling along about her favorite movie actors. This story holds you with its high stakes, fun characters, and a supervillain that's just really hard to dislike. We Could Be Villains is the perfect story for anyone who loves action, spies, found family, and the MCU." -Jenna Terese, YA author of Ignite
Superheroes meet Hollywood!
If you like super powers, double agents, and musical theatre, this book is for you. McCullough uses wit and a dash of sarcasm to pull together this fast paced novel. It's jam packed with secrets and intrigue amongst the background of New York, and the secret/not so secret VIGIL & ANTE headquarters...I mean movie studio. Oh, and did I mention there's a lovable hunky villain running this whole show?
We Could Be Villains is perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer's Renegade series and Marvel's, Agents of Shield. Mckenzie Catron, Author of A Daughter of the Trolls
***"It's official. I'm a Megan Muccllough fan! We Could be Villains stuns with its clever voice and original plot-a comic-lover's dream come true. This book is pure fun from beginning to end. I'll be shocked if an adaptation doesn't reach the big screen. I give We Could be Villains five out of five superheroes, or supervillains." - Caroline George, author of Dearest Josephine and The Summer We Forgot
A high-stakes adventure of fandom, good versus evil, and all the Marvel vibes. We Could Be Villains had me questioning what was real, what was staged, and all the truths and lies in between. - Nadine Brandes, award-winning author of Romanov and The Out of Time Series
