Can't Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan (Skyland #3)

Image (174)-1

I’ve been really looking forward to reading Hendrix’s story because she has such a strong presence in the first two books of the series. She’s the embodiment of a strong, independent, and successful woman who doesn’t need a man, so I’ve always wondered what her story would be.

In Can’t Get Enough, we see more of Hendrix’s life, her successes as well as the challenges she faces, especially when it comes to caring for her aging mom who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. She already has so much on her plate, so who has time for love? Not until… Maverick Bell. There’s something about a man who puts you first and reminds you that love can be gentle, steady, and exactly what you need, even when you think you don’t have room for it.

One thing I love about reading a Kennedy Ryan book is that it’s always going to be so much more than romance. ALWAYS. I love how she uses her writing to bring real-world issues like racism and gender discrimination among others to light. And I especially appreciate how she never fails to honor womanhood through her stories, bringing to life women who are unfailingly strong, resilient, and empowered. I am so glad to have read Yasmen, Soledad, and Hendrix’s stories 🥹 This series may have ended, but these characters will stay with me for a long time. Here’s to stories that inspire us to hope and love a little harder 💖

Rating: ★★★★☆

BOOK BLURB:

She’s a woman with goals, dreams, ambitions—always striving upward. And in the midst of everything, she's facing her toughest challenge caring for an aging parent.

Who has time for romance? From her experience, there's a low ROI on relationships. She hasn't met the man who can keep up with her anyway. 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 and appreciated, 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?
