The Second Song #5: Breaking Free
About this ebook
thought it would. Khir is stranded back in Indonesia and Avery is
distracted and distant. She is taking a huge risk trying to move her
career in a new musical direction and her record label is less than
supportive...
SNEAK PEEK!
“Elise, you promised not to do this.” Max ran his hand through his hair in frustration.
“I lied.”
“Reid, I’ve been making money hand over fist for this label for a
decade. I have nine platinum albums, an armload of Grammys, and a
truckload of other awards. I’ve made you millions. You owe me a modicum
of creative influence.”
“Elise, sweetheart, I know you think you’re ready for that, but you’re just not.”
In that moment, I realized nothing would ever change. They would always

“We talked about this Elise, you promised, three months on, three months off,” Max said.
“I’ve changed my mind. The last condition is this, when I am done with
this short tour, I will get back in the studio and do my next album my
way. And you two can get on board and at least hear me out before you
say no.”
“Is that all?” Reid frowned.
“Yes.”
“I will concede on the album cover because you have earned some
seniority, but that is all I can do for you sweetheart.” His tone was so
condescending I wanted to puke.
