Definitely Not

By: Rae Knight

Narrated by: Eddie Herrera, Lu Banks

Raine doesn't do help.

She participates in an underground fight circuit, owns her own bike shop, and fixes what breaks, fighting what won't stay down. She's learned the hard way that relying on people just gives them something to take from you later.

But then three men start showing up anyway. They're best friends, oddly persistent, and for some reason, have decided she's their problem now.

Elias is quiet and watchful, the kind of man who notices everything and steps in to care for everyone before they even ask. He offers help like it's a given, and never makes a big deal out of it. It's just his nature.

Theo is the boy you root for, soft and gentle, awkward and shy, but strong and intelligent. He listens more than he talks, at least around her. He doesn't push too hard, staying solid and patient in a way that's harder to shake for her.

Jax is loud, reckless, and fiercely loyal. All impulse and heat, crashing into her life with laughter and a refusal to let her push them away and keep them at arm's length.

Raine knows better than to let any of them in. She knows better than to trust three men in a world that already wants more from her than she has to give. But she can't shake them, and sometimes she's tired of fighting.

Debt doesn't wait, however, not when the mafia owns it. The underground doesn't play fair, and walking away isn't an option.

Neither is doing this alone.

Definitely Not is a dark gray, slow-burning, why-choose romance with underground fights, found family, sharp banter, and three men who aren't taking "leave" for an answer—even when Raine insists she doesn't need them.

Tropes: she fights; soft Dom; EMT MMC; virgin MMC; spice, sharing is caring; MMFM; they all ride motorcycles (including her); mechanic FMC.

instantly attached to every main character

i love Rae’s writing so much. specifically the way she writes her characters. each of their personalities are endearing and highly relatable. not only was this enjoyable from start to finish, but it was so easy to fall into the story and get swept away. the narration was SO good, and they were such a perfect fit for our MCs. the banter and back & forth was everything. I highly recommend 🖤

Raine. Jax. Theo. Elias.

I read this book when it first came out and fell in love with all four characters. And the audiobooks has you falling in love all over again, I do wish that Eddie had a little more inflection and tonal changes for each male character especially since they’re all such different personalities but I do think that Lu did a great job with Raines part.
Rae has nailed another masterpiece and I cannot wait to follow along for more from her beautiful little brain.

So good

I was so excited to finally hear these characters come to life and let me tell you it was so worth the wait
