Desi, a princess substitute, is excited that the elite Façade agency has promoted her, but she can't ignore her employer's shady practice of stealing magic from non-hired substitutes. Likable Desi struggles to do the right thing, knowing she'll be fired, and also gets closer to prince substitute Reed (whom her best friend also likes) in this disjointed but enjoyable series conclusion.
