“I’ll sing backup if you want.”

“You would?” He was genuinely surprised. Justin had a pretty voice, not terribly practiced at performing but on-key and talented, in what Kris thought of as the light but warm range, sort of golden-brown and velvety. He’d joined in one or two times as backup before, on the latest Kris Starr album with the tons of guest stars, and when pulled out on stage during that Starrlight reunion show; he’d admitted after, blushing, that that’d been a teenage fantasy: getting to sing with Kris Starr.
