What’s “Baby’s on Fire”?

Baby’s on Fire is a gay romance that follows my character, Gerry Faun, and bisexual glitter-rock superstar, Mark Devon.

Baby’s on Fire

by A.F. Henley

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 that 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 that’s shown up pleading for a second chance.

The Baby’s on Fire *All that Glitters* Blog Tour

It’s coming to a close!

That’s right, tomorrow’s post (March 16th) will be last stop on the *All That Glitters* blog tour for Baby’s on Fire. Join me on Crystal’s Many Reviewers–the final link goes LIVE tomorrow–while we say “good-bye” to the tour but “welcome” to a brand new set of characters: Gerry Faun and Mark Devon. Gerry and Mark made their debut on May 6th, and all three of us are hoping that I’ve managed to pique your interest in their story, Baby’s on Fire.

A Reminder, about the Tour:

Baby’s on Fire makes its debut on May 6th, and to get the word out, I’ve contacted some amazing sites to help share in the celebration. We’re going to take a look at some of the rumors, gossips, and events that identified the music scene of the late sixties and early seventies.

While none of these rumors or the performers involved are indicative of the main characters or events of Baby’s on Fire, I assure you, they do give a clear indication of what the time itself was like, as well as give us an idea of the mindset of the culture and the reactions of the people who were caught up in them.

So, what’s new with you?

I don’t know about you, but I can’t believe it’s October already. What happened to the summer?!

The nights are getting cold, the sun is already starting to hide its face for more hours than it shows it, and I’m not looking forward to what’s about to come my way.

Let’s just say this image —————————–>

is one that I can relate to on spiritual levels.

As much as I love hugs, a happy snowman I am not.

However!

There ARE things to look forward to and that actually is what this post is all about. Though I do appreciate you reading through my mini rant. Thank you. ❤

So, what’s on the horizon? So, so many things, let me tell you what:

OCTOBER:

As some of you are already aware, I’ve started doing month guest posts at Love Bytes Reviews — last month’s post HERE — so, Lord willing and the creek don’t rise (for those that know me, I’ll give you two guesses on where I got *that* gem from) I’ll be back on October 20th with my newest blog, answering a friend’s question on “where I get the ideas for my characters.”

Also — breaking news!! — within the next little while there should be some up and coming information about a joint author chat that I’ll be attending with a certain good friend of mine, for a certain amazing website, on October 31st from 11 pm to midnight… *ghost noises here*. Stay tuned!

NOVEMBER:

The Chase and The Catch releases November 19th (just in time for Christmas presents, folks). I’ve been looking forward to this one making its debut for some time now. The official blurb, purchasing link, and content notes can be found HERE, but for those that don’t want to click through, here’s the ten word summary: An author with nightmares and an actor with an agenda…

Go ahead, click through. After all, The Chase and The Catch is still available with a pre-order discount of 15% until the day before its release. Who doesn’t like to ‘save, save, save’, am I right?

Finally, keep your eyes open for a quick little free read that may or may not be on its way November 1st . (Spoiler: It is.)

DECEMBER:

On December 17th my short story A Beautiful Thing will release in Less Than Three Press’s anthology A Touch of Mistletoe.

It’s a collection about people brought together by the magic of mistletoe, and includes stories from E.E. Ottoman, J.K. Pendragon, Megan Derr, Talya Andor,  and myself. Check out all the details HERE and, once again, save 15% if you pre-order now.

Sounds like a great way to hide from enjoy the holidays to their fullest. 😉

AND FINALLY… 2015:

Road Trip will be released sometime during the first quarter of the new year. It’s a story about a young man with a secret, and a ’69 RoadRunner driven by a closet dreamer. It’s fun, sexy, and surprisingly angst-free. All right, all right, stop dropping to the ground in mock-shock. Yes, I CAN occasionally write without the use of excessive drama. 😉

And NOW… here… the news I’ve been dying to share all along… just because OMG the pretties! Less Than Three Press has accepted my newest manuscript, Baby’s on Fire. It’s a novel about a glam rock star and his fan in 1974. Or is it a novel about a rock star and his not-so-fan in 1994? I’ll let you decide.

Baby’s on Fire was an absolute thrill to write. The words seemed to just fall off my fingers, my beta reader couldn’t say enough about it, and I got to listen to way too much Bowie and Venus in Furs. Speaking of my beta reader… *drum roll*

You know how when you’re reading a thing, and that thing ends up inspiring another thing, and before you know it there are things everywhere? Yeah, that. Hence this bit of beauty right here ———————————————————->>

Is that… why, yes, it is! The official cover for Baby’s on Fire by the talented Raphael! Thank you, buddy. As you already know, I’m in love with what you’ve done with this. <3<3<3

Huge thanks to Less Than Three Press for going above and beyond the call of duty with this cover. <3<3<3

And finally, I’m about 70% through another work in progress,but alas I have this crazy belief about not sharing spoilers for fear of jinxing the story. Okay, I’ll give you one. Spoiler: *growls*

That’s it for now, everyone! Hope you enjoy, and my thanks for your time! 😀

AFH ❤
