In 1974, Gerry Faun gets the break of his life -- an opportunity to meet gorgeous, openly bisexual, glam-rock idol Mark Devon. Mark's world is new, exciting, and Gerry finally gets to explore the side of his sexuality he's kept hidden. But the press is everywhere, and when Gerry's father gets wind of what's going on behind his back, Gerry ends up on the street. Mark offers to let Gerry come along with the tour and Gerry jumps at the chance. The tour is a never-ending party -- and the start of what seems to be a perfect relationship for him and Mark. Until Mark's manager decides Gerry isn't worth the trouble he's stirring up. In 1994, Gerry is finally coming out of some tough times -- he has a job that pays the bills, a car that hasn't quite broken down, and a small rental in Jersey City. After a decade of barely getting by, if life was as good as it was going to get, Gerry figures he'll manage just fine. It would be easier if he wasn't still haunted by the man the media won't let him forget, the man who stole his heart and then broke it ... the man who’s shown up pleading for a second chance.

Fawn on the Moon

Gerry, however, was sick to fucking death of people and noise.


He dragged his fingertips up Mark’s forearm. “How about dinner?”


Gerry shook his head. “Just dinner. You and me. Nothing too fancy. Somewhere we can hole up, hide away, and just…I don’t know. Talk. Laugh.” He chuckled at Mark’s droll expression, then wrapped his fingers around Mark’s arm and pulled Mark closer. He stared into Mark’s eyes and blinked his own furiously. “You know, gaze into each other’s eyes and be lovestruck.”


“So…” Mark pursed his lips and eyed Gerry, unconvinced. “No orgy then?”


Gerry laughed. “We’ll save that for your birthday.”


His chin was tapped, and Mark nodded. “Done deal then.”
