“Kennedy Ryan pours her whole soul into everything she writes, and it makes for books that are heart-searing, sensual, and life affirming.” ―EMILY HENRY 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 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?
“One of the finest romance writers of our age.” –Entertainment Weekly
To be honest, I delayed reading Can’t Get Enough because I wasn’t sure I was ready to deal with its emotional subject matter. Caring for a loved one who suffers from Alzheimer’s is heavy stuff, and I couldn’t imagine how Kennedy Ryan could incorporate a romance in an uplifting and realistic way. As it turns out, it’s my favorite book in the Skylark series.
Hendrix has been the ride or die backbone of her friend group over the previous two books, supporting the other ladies throughout all their trials. Childless by choice, she’s the successful, sharp-witted, rich Aunty everybody loves. I knew it would take a special man to capture her heart, and Maverick is all that and a bag of chips. He celebrates Hendrix’s independence while championing her dreams and giving her a soft place to land during the hard times. He’s a billionaire, and yet he has to work hard for Hendrix to give him a chance. I admired her integrity, both in her personal life and her business.
Kennedy Ryan brings laughter, poignancy, and swoony romance to a story that addresses caring for an aging parent with dementia, as well as social injustice. Through Hendrix’s eyes the reader can appreciate the fear, vulnerability, and challenges associated with Alzheimer’s. It was a side of the story that I welcomed exploring. Hendrick’s life is so blessed that I was able to enjoy a celebration of the human spirit rather than suffering from a feeling of doom and gloom.
