BLURB:
Hendrix Barry lives a fabulous life. She has phenomenal friends, a loving family, and a thriving business that places her in the entertainment industry’s rarefied air. Your vision board? She’s probably living it.
She’s a woman with goals, dreams, ambitions—always striving upward. And in the midst of everything, she’s facing her toughest challenge yet: caring for an aging parent. Who has time for romance? From her experience, there’s a low ROI on relationships. Anyway, she hasn’t met the man who can keep up with her. Until…him.
Tech mogul Maverick Bell is a dilemma wrapped in an exquisitely tailored suit and knee-melting charm. From their first charged glance at the summer’s hottest party, Hendrix feels like she’s met her match. Only he can’t be. Mav may be the first to make her feel this seen and desired, but he’s the last one she can have. Forbidden fruit is the juiciest, and this man is off limits if she plans to stay the course she’s set for herself.
But when Maverick gives chase—pursuing her, spoiling her, understanding her—is it time to let herself have something more?
MY THOUGHTS:
Miss “I can do it all myself, but if I had a good man, I can learn to be soft” finally gets it, y’all. And let me tell you, I read this book in ONE DAY. One! That’s how you know it’s good.
Wrapping up the Skyland series, Can’t Get Enough had me all in my feelings. Honestly? I liked it even more than This Could Be Us. If I had to rank them, it’s Before I Let Go holding strong at number one, then Can’t Get Enough, and This Could Be Us coming in third. But trust me, they’re all worth the read.
Hendrix? Total boss babe. She knows what she wants, and she stood her ground about not wanting kids. Pure rich auntie vibes, and I was absolutely here for it. Plus, grown, sexy, mature characters in their 40s? Yes, please!
Now let’s talk about Maverick. Whew! He officially made it onto my book bae list. We’re talking billionaire trope and forbidden romance. And if you’re like me, that forbidden tension just hits differently. Kennedy Ryan delivered the heat with a few scenes that had me like, “Oh, you wish that was you, huh?” Lol! And let’s not forget, she knows how to make a man growl for his woman. Maverick was down bad for Hendrix, and I loved every second of it.
But what really got me? That moment when Hendrix realized she doesn’t have to do it all alone. She’s got Maverick now, and the man is ready to step up. Don’t we just love a strong man who lets his independent woman lean on him? Yes, we do!
Can’t Get Enough drops on May 13th, and you best believe I’ll be talking about it again. Happy reading!
