“I love the thrill of the chase.”Duncan Rourke is a regular at Heaven’s Ballroom – but no one’s ever caught his eye for longer than a dance or two. Until one boastful, smart mouthed dancer brings him to attention. Duncan is intrigued by Kieran, but when Kieran turns him down flat, the sparks between them need another outlet – a love bet. “Don’t assume you know me.”Omega Kieran Drake hates it when … me.”
Omega Kieran Drake hates it when people make assumptions about him – and when Duncan bets that he can make Kieran fall in love with him, Kieran’s ire is raised. It’s the worst sort of assumption. There’s only one problem: Duncan’s winning the bet.

Noah has many preconceived notions of what “a man like” Duncan is. Duncan wants to prove him wrong. Neither is expecting or ready to deal with the onslaught of real emotions. A great couple, if they can realize the error of their ways in time.
Kieran is an Omega who works as stripper at Heaven’s Ballroom. He only does one nightstands. Her doesn’t believe in love. Duncan is an Alpha who works on Wall Street. He also only does one nightstands. Kieran catches his eye. There’s something different about him. I enjoyed the story and characters.
Wow! I loved this!
Although I own several books by this author, this is actually my introduction to his work. This is also Book 3 in a series, but I felt perfectly comfortable reading it as a standalone.
The interactions between Duncan and Kieran are perfect. Right from the moment they meet, the sparks fly and Duncan has his work cut out in winning Kieran over. Both are charismatic and charming.
I love how descriptive this story is. I could visualise the club and the costumes, the tackiness of the other club where Kieran goes for an audition, the food and drink… Feelings are described with the same attention to detail. The heat between main characters is…well…hot!
I will certainly be reading this author again.
Betting On His Angel is the third book in the Heaven’s Ballroom series by Aiden Bates. This is a fun story. The chase, the bet, the steam…. but it’s so much more. I love Duncan and Kieran together. HOT! And I fully enjoyed the story with the snarky comments, the confidence, and the heat. I am going to look into the rest of the series, for sure.
I’m not lookin for love, I’m not lookin for love and love nips you in the heart! Duncan, Alpha and Kieran, Omega, were not a couple one would pick upon meeting them. But they seemed to fulfill a need in each other. Duncan is so high school sophomore and Kieran seems wise high school senior. Kieran uses his psychology degree to distance himself from handsy Alphas and gain larger tips. Will he out psych himself with his bet? Can Mr Bates write a bad story? His combinations of snark, fun courtships, good lovin’ and growth challenges make his stories entertaining and hot. Well done!This series makes romance fun. I received an ARC from Booksprout for a review.
This is a wonderful, entertaining MM romance that captures the reader’s attention & keeps it until the end. It is the third book in the series “Heaven’s Ballroom” but it is complete & standalone. The plot is well-written & entertaining with interesting characters that have individual personalities that complement each other.
It is about: a cocky alpha (Duncan Rourke) who is quite a regular visitor at “Heaven’s Ballroom” after he notices an angel that is a rather smart-mouthed omega with a cynical outlook on love (Kieran Drake) & approaches him but is promptly turned down but Duncan is determined to get his man.
There is: a strip club (Heaven’s Ballroom), alphas, omega, friendship, attraction, complications, possessiveness, verbal banter, judgmental attitude, attempted seduction, memories, a date, verbal teasing, suspicions, sneakiness, confusion, anticipation, longings, realization, a unexpected surprise, confrontation, admittance, happiness, love, steamy scenes & a satisfying epilogue with a tantalizing glimpse of what could be a future book.
I enjoyed reading this MM romance & would recommend it
Kieran loved the flexibility, the money, and the fun at Heaven’s Ballroom. And he used his cunning and his psychology degree to work the angles to get bigger tips.
Until……
Duncan was another Wall Street guy – but one who went to an Ivy, but came from the other side of the tracks.
A money making man .
And somehow, he was attracted to Kieran – and he worked hard to get the win – until he discovered that he wanted more than an easy sex win – he wanted a real relationship – and Kieran ran away.
Can they get it together – and keep it together?
intense m/m steamy relationship
