Backstage Pass

She''s named after a landform.

She learned to walk on the red carpet.

And now she''s playing hostess to the nation''s hottest pop star.

Desert McGraw hasn''t exactly had a normal upbringing. Her dad fronts the popular rock band Crossfire, and her mom is the group''s manager. Always on tour or sitting in on recording sessions, Desert leads a life that looks glamorous to most people.

But now that she''s sixteen and living in yet another new town -- Miami, this time -- Desert is more than ready to call one place home. There''s one problem, though: How do you know whom to trust -- let alone what guy to hook up with -- when all any-one wants is access to the band?

Funny, romantic, and filled with essential rock-star etiquette (the proper attire for cruising in a Jag convertible, how to introduce new friends to your leather-wearing dad, etc.), Backstage Pass is a look at what happens when real life meets every girl''s dream.
