They are courted by major labels, eventually signing with a powerful executive, Morgan Thayre, who promises global reach and artistic freedom.

This book plunges Echo into the exhilarating, fast-paced world of mainstream music. They experience the intoxicating rush of newfound fame: whirlwind tours, sold-out shows, screaming fans, and the constant flash of cameras. Their manager, Kit Landen, a shrewd but loyal figure, tries to guide Echo through the dizzying ascent, handling contracts, media appearances, and the relentless demands of a burgeoning career.
