Desi (Princess for Hire) has been promoted to a Level Two princess substitute for the elite Façade agency. Besides sub jobs, she's playing Titania in a school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream (alongside cute Reed) and figuring out what triggers her magic. While her adventures are unsurprising, lively Desi navigates them with a sense of humor and a strong moral compass.
