When Desi Bascomb gets discovered by the elite Facade Agency–royalty surrogates extraordinaire–her life goes from glamour-starved to spectacular in a blink. As her new agent, Meredith, explains, Desi has a rare magical ability: when she applies the ancient Egyptian formula “Royal Rouge,” she can transform temporarily into the exact lookalike of any princess who needs her subbing services. Dream come true, right? Well, Desi soon discovers that subbing involves a lot more than wearing a tiara and waving at cameras. Like, what do you do when a bullying older sister puts you on a heinous crash diet? Or when the tribal villagers gather to watch you perform a ceremonial dance you don’t know? Or when a princess’s conflicted sweetheart shows up to break things off–and you know she would want you to change his mind? In this hilarious series debut, one girl’s dream of glamour transforms into something bigger: the desire to make a positive impact. And an impact Desi makes, one royal fiasco at a time.Present Of Books Princess for Hire (Princess for Hire #1)

This book was a quick read, and basically a Disney movie in written form (notice the publisher includes Disney on the spine). It was a good book to read in between other books for sure. The main character is hired to fill in for royalty, so we find her in many odd situations. The best part about this job to me was how the author described the bubble she traveled in (I'd like to try that once).The plot never got too thick - the character didn't have to deal with any deep problems or anything likeI won a signed copy of this book in the Help Write Now auction, and absolutely ate it up. Love Desi. Love Meredith. Love the whole idea of choosing to "impact" instead of being blinded by tiaras. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to read this. Especially since it was dedicated, "Princess Lucia...Impact!" I am certain it's going to be a favorite!
I keep a well stocked library-borrowed bookshelf at home, because one never knows what type of book may be needed at any given time. I found myself with a serious headcold the other day and even the Danielle Steel novel looked too complicated, so I grabbed this one. After a quick two hour read, I was even glad I had the cold!!How can you not like a novel that starts with the main character, 13 year old Desi, working at the mall's pet shop wearing a Glady the Gopher costume? Throw in having big
Just finished Princess for Hire, and I have to say, it was HILARIOUS. Younger than most of the books I read, it completely engaged me and kept me turning the pages. The author's humor is pure gold. And honestly, when I got to the last chapter, I was SO disappointed it was over. It's going to be an amazing series!!!!!
Hey! I'm not trying to be biased. Let's just say writing this book was a 5 star experience for me and I hope you get some enjoyment out of it as well.
People say not to judge a book by its cover, but I do. I know, thats a bad thing to do but I cant help it. I actually love Princess to Hires cover (even though my friends wouldnt believe me). Its really pretty. And it fits the story.Desi is a believable character. She got into a disagreement with her old best friend and now theyre enemies. Oh yeah, and she makes her own shirts. Thats actually pretty interesting. Her personality strengthens throughout the book as she begins to take the place of
Brief summary: Desi is just an ordinary 13 year old girl in Idaho, when she makes a wish on some magical fish... She wants to have grace and confidence and make an "impact. " Now she has awakened her magical potential (MP) and the Facade agency wants her to work for them. With the help of magic, she can look like anyone and her job is to impersonate princesses. Desi soon finds that she wants to improve the lives of the princesses she's impersonating. This might stir things up at Facade, but in
