The Art of Losing
Freya’s Bower
Contemporary M/F
Novel
Blurb:
Her heart is off limits. She’s only looking for fun and sex. Emily Stone is sick of men and their lying, cheating, self-centered ways. A stranger stealing a kiss on New Year’s Eve is the last drop. She makes the resolution to turn the tables on the opposite sex and beat them in their own game.
But when the stranger turns out to be Blake Edwards, the brother of one of her students, Emily’s plans start to go awry.
Blake pursues her with a vengeance. He’s sexy, has all the right answers and makes her heart flip in her chest with just a smile. But he’s also too confident, annoying, not to mention he can end her career with just a word at a time when money is scarcer than shooting stars.
Should Emily fight her strong attraction to him or add another name to her date card and pretend Blake’s no different than the rest of them?
EXCERPT
“What’s that?” His gruff question pulled me out of my stupor and my hands stilled, his zipper half down.
I followed his gaze to the ice cream. “Chunky Monkey.” My nonchalance amazed and filled me with pride at the same time.
Blake laughed out loud. In the past, this ironic strike of fate would’ve deterred me, but not tonight. So I must’ve had a weird premonition when I chose the flavor. End of subject. Determined the night would go as planned, I pulled down his pants and boxers and Blake’s amusement died a sudden death.
I picked up the carton and peered at Blake with all the sultriness I could muster. It must’ve been enough because his lips parted, and he seemed to want to say something. In the end, he decided not to. I took a soul-deep breath and prayed I got this right.
Ready or not, here you come.
Taking Blake’s erection in hand, I swept my index across its length once, and brought the other monkey into play. His breathing grew hard—as the rest of him. I pressed the crown into the gooey surface until it was nicely covered in the light yellow confection. Blake let out a small hiss above me, but didn’t tell me to stop. The carton almost fell from my hands at the sight of his ice cream coated hard-on. What a treat… Before I ended up drooling, I tongued some of the sweet delicacy off him, and then polished him clean with slow, thorough licks.
I drew back, and his hands grabbed my head to keep me in place.
I stared up into his flushed face. “Let me go, Blake. I’m hungry.”
His pupils dilated to the point I couldn’t distinguish the green anymore. Thankfully, he complied. I repeated the process, this time diving deeper to spoon more ice cream, and turned Blake’s hard erection upward. The liquid sped down his length and my eager mouth followed the sweet trail. A raspy sound of pleasure rumbled deep within Blake’s chest when most of him went past my lips.
“Shit,” he cried out.
I didn’t need to imagine what the hot/cold treatment was doing to him. The fact he pulsed against my tongue spoke volumes. Most of the banana flavor had disappeared by now, and his own registered.
Like everything else of Blake, addictive.
I risked a glance at his face and caught him watching me with rapt attention. The play of muscles in his upper chest, glistening with sweat, transfixed me. God, but he was magnificent. And all mine.
A surge of power swept through me at the realization of his complete surrender to my ministrations. Wrapping my palms at the base of his penis, I bobbed my head at a leisurely pace, enjoying the feel of him, hard and soft at the same time.
Blake’s control snapped. A grimace distorted his face. He snarled and cupped my head, his hands forcing me to increase the rhythm, his fingers clenching in my hair, pulling at the strands. An electric shock shot right down between my thighs at the erotic sting.
“Suck it. Suck my cock, baby.”
Whew! I’ll never look at ice cream the same way again! See you back here tomorrow for another giveaway. Have a great Sunday!

Birthday and Christmas and Icecream to boot. I so love your books and think that your covers are hot. I need to add The Art of Losing to my wish list.
Love the titles of your books as well as the cover art.
Dear God, Love the cover and excerpt! That scene is just perfect! oxox
Count me in!
Hot excerpt, and never would have thought to use ice cream there.
Hey everyone! I'm glad you liked the excerpt. I thought it would be funny to use the specific flavor, because of its name.
I'm twisted that way.
Also, I'd like to thanks Lex for offering me a spot in her christmas calendar. In my mind's eye, it's like one of those houses made out of carton, that each day is a window. And you all got to peek into my world for a day.
Thank YOU for offering a book for my giveaway, Lisa! It's going to make our winner very hot while reading it!
Love the hot scenes
Wow! That is some cover! Losing never seemed so sweet!
Wow, what a steamy excerpt. Will never look at ice cream quite the same way again! lol
