Manhattan Bet: An MM Age Gap Romance (From Manhattan) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 41 ratings

I BET YOU I WON’T.

He was too good for me.
Too damn young and too smart
and I couldn’t say no.
Mack Hennessy came into my life like one of those Tasmanian devils. A hot, beautiful
whirlwind.
Entirely broke my control, shook up my existence.
Made me fall in love.
Until the real reason for his pursuit was revealed.

I BET YOU I WILL.

I fell in love with a celebrity. The world-famous Tom Cohen, international model with his
pouty mouth and aloof nature.
And I screwed up.
I didn’t know what we’d become.
How vital he’d be to my life.

Life lesson: NEVER MAKE A BET about anyone you want to spend your life with.
He says I’m too young.
But I bet I can win him back…

Disclaimer: Are you ready for a lot of boys kissing?
This has lots of boy mush and celeb-model brooding

V. Theia
Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.
Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I write steamy, emotionally driven contemporary and MC romance, featuring tough-as-nails alpha men who only show their soft side for their person.

My books are packed with dirty talk, detailed sex scenes, and swoony, slow-burn chemistry that explodes. I lean into dark-lite themes, sometimes forbidden tropes, but I always deliver that satisfying, well-earned HEA.

Currently, I’m riding with bikers and bad boys—but one day I’ll be bringing you the dirtiest, most seductive vampire in paranormal romance.

If you love intense love stories, broken characters, and men who love hard and fight harder, I’ve got something for you.

    Tom, I wanted to keep disliking you! (If you’ve read Taboo Love you will understand).

    Of course V has a mind and a way with bringing the worst of bad people into a light that doesn’t allow you to even dislike the worst of characters. Tom grew so much in this short period of time. From this aloof tough man, to such a softie for his Mack. Adorable! Mack was the perfect man for him! Hilarious, smart, and didn’t take no for an answer. Cause come on, if you know Tom, you know for sure he’s full of ‘no’. The best HEA ever!!! One of my top favorite lines comes from our dear Noah. But sums up this read for me so well.
    “You’ll know one day when someone is essential to you why I moved heaven and earth for her.”
    Tom and Mack would do just that for each other, you can feel their love for each other just burning from the pages, and I couldn’t be happier for them both.

    (I usually try to leave all spoilers out.. But that didn’t happen this time, so stop reading now if you don’t want to see any! I’m sorry!)

    Let’s just throw in a moment of WHAT IN THE WORLD! Because I hadn’t forgotten about the bet, but I did think that it would never come about. Mack had to have had a falling out with Pebbles and Jez, no way did he let that just slide! I also can’t believe that Tom was so rash to just leave!! I wanted to kick him! Did I just meet two people whose story just sounds too good to NOT share? Katarina and Hunter, Please! This just is going to be too juicy to not hear about!

    First let me say that V.Theia is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors—no doubt. I said to myself, “Self”, V’s books cannot get any better, but then she surprised the hell out of me. With that out the way, let’s talk about Manhattan Bet—Tom and Mack, an unlikely couple-the beautiful model clothes whore and the computer geek. I didn’t like Tom initially because of the way he treated Sena—to me he was a beautiful model diva, but I must say from his first appearance in this book, I fell in love with him. What can I say about Mack? He blew my freaking mind from the very beginning. He is such an amazing character, he is sensitive, adorable, but he can also be a dominant bad ass—if needed. Just ask Tom about that 😊. Mack has a beautiful soul and he is not afraid to go for what or who he wants and right now he wants his crush, Tom.
    Let’s talk about the chemistry with the two boys, the chemistry was so freaking hot, it came right off the page. Every time they are together, it’s like they are the only ones in the world…HOT! HOT! HOT! my heart literally stopped whenever they are together. Let’s just say nobody writes smut like V.Theia—NOBODY. Let me tell you this book did not disappoint. The best M/M action EVER! Some damn good man loving for my enjoyment.
    Manhattan Bet is the best book I’ve read this year--so far (I read it twice already). I would highly recommend it-even if you have never read this genre before, trust me you will love it. Seriously while you are at it, pick up the rest of the series…matter of fact, pick up all of V.Theia’s books…You are welcome!

    I bet you can't put this book down. I bet you will fall in love with Mack and Tom. I bet you will laugh a bunch while reading. I bet you will be blown away by this sexy, filthy and utterly amazing book. Manhattan Bet is one of the best MM books that I have read in memory. This should be no surprise to me since all of this writers books just take me there.

    This is the love story of Tom, whom we met in the Taboo Love Duet books and hated. He was completely unloveable. We also met Mack for a brief minute in this series and he was a little punk genius. So how do you take these two and make a love story? You rely on the writing magic of this author and Manhattan Bet does not disappoint. Tom is so aloof, arrogant and bored and Mack is like a fresh energizer bunny. When these beautiful men meet it is instant chemistry and the temperature goes up about a hundred degrees. As Tom said to Mack, "come on,puppy. I have a place to show you."

    I laughed and sighed throughout this wonderful read. It is funny, charming, sexy and all so full of steam. I highly recommend this book. This is a one click author for me.

    If you are a lover of MM stories like I am, then this book is most definitely for you! If you read the Manhattan Series then you will have met Tom, a high fashion model who doesn't believe in relationships, only hook ups. Then along comes Mack, a computer genius who is a bit younger than Tom, who has an amazing sense of humor. Mack has lusted after Tom for years, but never thought he would ever meet him. Until one chance meeting at coffee shop that sets the tone for this amazing story. While they embark on a relationship of sorts, can it last? Will one mistake end it all? Can Mack break through Tom's cold exterior? My heart fell in love with both these characters and truly didn't want their story to end. You will root for these characters to end up together and their story will pull at your heartstrings. Please read this incredible story of lust and love. You will fall in love with them just like I did.

    I can’t even describe how good this book is!! It literally took over my life I couldn’t put it down I had to know what was going to happen with these to boys! It was an all consuming type of love story, that will make you laugh like crazy (or try not to laugh in public so people don’t think you are crazy 😂), and it will make fall head over heals in love with these two men! You will love Tom ( I’m sorry but it’s true!) and you will want to be best friends with Mack( let me tell you that boy is hilarious!!!). I will bet you 50 dollars you will fall in love with them just as easily as I did!

    Mack is a young guy with a crush on model Tom Cohen. These two were smoking hot together. I had to fan myself while reading this story. Tom is older and models for a living. He meets Mack when he goes for a cup of coffee one morning. Get ready for lots of sexy action, kisses and hot sex. A great read that I recommend in this series.

    Oh wow, she did it again!
    I loved this story. It was funny, witty and gave me all the feels. But I loved the epilogue the most.
    I recommend it if you wanted to read a light MM book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Another perfectly written, easy to read amd reread
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 28, 2019
    Have to say I loved this book

    Mack is a completely adorable character. Full of energy, he reminds me of a Labrador puppy.
    A typical teenager, betting on stupid things and falling into a bit of peer pressure, esp over something he would never imagine happening.
    Tom is a bit jaded, and with good reason. With his hook-ups only wanting to use him and his name, he's not sure how to handle Mack's honesty.
    He tries to scare Mack away by being honest about his past. When overhearing about the bet he reacted the way anyone would.
    These two characters are so perfect for one-another, I hope we get more about them in future.
    Another perfectly written, easy to read and re-read.
