In the first book in THE RISE AND FALL OF DANI TRUEHART series, RISING STAR, fifteen-year-old Dani Truehart is living a life that is not quite her own. Driven by her mother's desire for fame and fortune, she has spent her childhood dutifully training for a career as a pop star. On the brink of discovery, doubts begin to creep into Dani's mind as she questions her own desire for fame, and she wonders whether she can trust the motivations of the adults who are driving her forward.
Following a brilliant audition arranged by her vocal/dance coach and former '80s pop icon Martin Fox, Dani is thrown full-force into the music industry. She leaves her friends, family and scheming mother behind to move with Martin, who has become her legal guardian, into the Malibu compound of her new manager, Jenner Redman. Jenner, the former swindling manager of Martin's boy band, leverages what's left of his depleted fortune to launch Dani's career.
Isolated from her life at home and trying to stay apace with her demanding schedule, Dani struggles to keep in touch with those she loves, connect to her withholding mother and find her voice as an artist. With Martin and Jenner at odds over their rocky past and finding herself unprepared to handle the pressures of her future singing career, Dani's debut album and future stardom are at risk of falling apart.
Excerpt
This is a scene occurs just after Martin reviews Dani’s
contract with her and her parents.
I
walk back to the couch, sit down and stare at my parents. I feel like I’ve aged a lifetime in the past
few hours I’ve listening to my mom haggle over every detail of my contract like
I’m a piece of meat at the butcher. “Mom, I’ve been working for this my whole life. Stop causing problems and let Martin
do
his job. You can’t threaten to
stop me now after you’ve already given guardianship to Martin. Acting like a concerned
parent this late in the game isn’t going to work. If you really wanted to protect me, you would have never handed me over to Martin.”
I shake
my
head and narrow
my
eyes at my mom, so furious
I can
barely speak.
“I’m sorry that the money
I make isn’t going directly into
your
pockets like you’d hoped.
I promise the first thing
I’ll do is to pay you and Dad back for all the lessons
you’ve given me. You deserve
some
return on
your investment. But if the past few hours have shown me anything, it’s why you really pushed
me
to do this all these years. I’m sorry
that you won’t be getting the big payday you’d hoped for.”
My parents just sit there, stunned.
Tears stream down my face as I get up to leave. I’m a mess of anger and sadness, and I just want to be alone.
