Ainsley's divorced mother is the director on a summer fairy tale (definitely not Disney) cruise, and nearly-thirteen-year-old Ainsley is annoyed that she is expected to spend her summer vacation helping out in hundred different ways, without much in the way of free time to chat up the cute boy playing the "Pig King"--then once the ship actually sets sail things start to go wrong, and Ainsley begins to wonder whether this fairy tale is cursed.
