🎧 AUDIOBOOK REVIEW🎧

I loved this audiobook. The narrators were great and it flowed nicely. Absolutely loved it.

This book. This series. It is everything. Like that’s for breaking my heart again Kennedy Ryan 😜 just love it all of them.

hey academy, give the narrators their flowers cause they gave OSCAR WORTHY performances. if you're going to read this, the audiobook is simply the only way!!!

you guys...UGH. kennedy ryan does it again. this book was actual perfection. the representation of a truly independent headstrong queen in hendrix with an absolutely OBSESSED hero ready to give everything to her in mav?? girl...i was clutching my pEARLS. i loved that hendrix knew who she was, what she worked hard for, and wasn't going to let any man get in the way of her dreams. i loved that that's what mav loved most abotu her and was ready to support her in any way possible. the man was bEGGING for her to let him treat her like a goddess - and those were his exact words. now they both were going through such heavy personal issues, and hendrix's relationship with her ailing mother was a big focus in the story, and that part made me tear up. mav was there through it all, holding it down and being the rock she didn't know she needed. i loved them so much. they both allowed each other to open up and be vulnerable in such a safe and healthy way. i truly can't express how much i needed to read about a character like hendrix getting her happy ever after. this book is everything to me!

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆: Hendrix “Hen” Berry is a successful independent woman who doesn’t have time for love. She knows what she wants, and isn’t afraid to go after it- relationships just slow her down. Enter Maverick Bell, an investment mogul with an eye for business, and now Hendrix. Hen and Mav share a common bond in caring for a parent with Alzheimer’s- as they grow in their friendship, they discover there might be a chance for more.

𝗠𝘆 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀:
The third book in the Skyland Series, and if I know anything, it’s that author Kennedy Ryan can tell a great story. While this wasn’t my favorite of the three, it was a solid second place. 🥈 I found the Alzheimer’s portrayal to be very accurate and heartbreaking. I could identify with Hen and her independence and not wanting to waste time on love unless it was “the one”. Maverick was a decent character, the billionaire romance is not my thing- but it is plenty of other people’s. The story did drag on more than I would like, and the pacing was slow. The female narrator was great, I felt like she was able to make me believe she was the voice of Hendrix. The male narrator was as just ok, I didn’t think the voice or inflection of the words and dialogue was as great as it could have been. I would have loved to read this with my eyeballs 👀, I think the story would have read better than the audio version.

Kennedy Ryan's Skyland series continues to delete a lot of emotion and fun with Can't Get Enough. In Can't Get Enough, we finally get Hendrix's story, which I was incredibly excited about. Hendrix is ambitious and successful, and this book starts as she's getting a major opportunity at work while dealing with a parent's dementia. She meets Maverick, a billionaire interested in Hendrix, who seems like a great match for her, except for recently ending a relationship with Hendrix's business partner for the aforementioned work opportunity.

Though I liked Can't Get Enough, it did not top This Could Be Us as my favorite in the series, despite how much I thought I'd like it based on my enjoyment of Hendrix in the previous books. I haven't read many books with the billionaire love interest trope, and I'm not sure it's for me.

4.5⭐️ 2🌶️5🎧

This was my first Kennedy Ryan book, but it won’t be my last. I loved this book so much!

Hendrix was such a baddie! I loved her drive and determination but most of all I loved her incredible heart. She was so kind and generous and constantly thinking of how she could help and uplift others.

Maverick was perfect for her! Hen was so used to being the one taking care of others that it took her a hot minute to be comfortable with Mav taking care of her. And I loved how he took care of her. He was the definition of if he wanted to he would. He dropped everything so many times to be with her without her needing to ask.

I loved me an obsessed billionaire whose love language is acts of service. Although his gifts were pretty amazing.

Their connection was instant and cataclysmic. They had so much in common and they both knew what they wanted and maybe more importantly didn’t want their lives to look like.

I thought the way Hendrix handled her mom’s Alzheimer’s was very real and relatable. I definitely understand that denial phase and the long journey to accepting what it truly means for her mother and herself. I loved that she had Mav to lean on.

My biggest “complaint” about this book is that I wanted more! I wanted to see Hen meet Mav’s daughter. I wanted to see them move in together and as terrible as it sounds, I wanted to see Mav be there for Hen when she lost her mother. I just loved this characters and would have happily read another 200 pages 🤣.

The audiobook was amazing! Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem such a wonderful job bringing Hen and Mav to life.

Hendrix is living her best life. She has good friends, a job that she loves and a loving family. In the midst of all her success now shes facing her toughest challenge yet in taking care of har aging mother. She doesn’t have time for romance and besides, the only man she has a serious connection with is strictly off limits.

I regret not reading one of Kennedy Ryans books sooner, I loved this book! Strong female characters are my weakness and when you throw in an emotional storyline its even better.

Hendrix mother has Alzheimer’s disease so she and her aunt has to take care of her. It’s incredibly emotional and at times I had to take a break just to reflect. I adore the way Maverick supports her on this journey.

The narrators did an incredible job, in fact this is one of my favorite audiobooks I’ve ever listened to. I can’t recommend it enough.

KENNEDY RYAN DOES IT AGAIN. I don't know what kind of voodoo magic she weaves into her love stories, but damn. I've read a lot of rom-coms recently, including new ones by the biggest names in the rom-com game, and... this one tops them all.

Something about the realness of the characters just drew me in. Granted, both of our protagonists are over 40, which lends a special sort of confidence and knowledge in what they want. There's no wishy-washy in this, no self-doubt (at least, not within their relationship). No third act breakup. Just two grown adults who understand what they want out of life and are willing to figure it out with each other.

I will say that this book was spicier than her previous books in the Skyland series. I expected that, knowing who Hendrix is as a character, but it was definitely spicier than I normally read.

It also had a subplot of Alzheimer's, so TW for that. I thought it was really well done, though, and I really love the way it showed a different side of Hendrix.

I'll be thinking about this book for a while!

Book 3 of this series was just as amazing and books 1 & 2! I absolutely loved Hendrix in the first books, and was looking forward to her story. This book touched on some touchy subjects, such as caring for elderly parents with illness, taking care of your mental health & body positivity. In spite of this, Kennedy Ryan managed to also have me cackling out loud, at some of the funny scenes and sayings. I loved the brief updates on Soledad & Yasmin & I still love their pure friendship.

The deep dive she took on Alzheimer’s was nothing short of amazing. The way it accurately depicted how this disease wreaks havoc on not only the person that’s diagnosed but also their loved ones, was powerful and emotional.

Maverick… Where do I start. This good, honest, hardworking, faithful, billionaire black man that I simply adore. I fell in love with his character from the mere mention of this name & Kennedy absolutely portrayed his character extremely well.

The narration in the audiobook… Let’s just say Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem can do no wrong in my eyes. The way in which they brought life to these characters should studied! I love every single thing they narrate, but this one resonated! I’m unsure if it’s because I went into the story already having an emotional connection to some of the characters or not as to why this one hit different, but either way EXCELLENT job!

Thank you Hachette Audio and NetGalley for this advanced listening copy. All opinions are my own.

Loved this last installment of the trilogy. I loved all the ladies journeys but Kennedy truly saved the best for last. She gets it, enough with the struggle love, black women deserve to be worshiped and loved on correctly and completely and that’s what you’ll get in these novels. I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one. This one comes out May 13th and will be a treat for all the romance girlies. Thank you #hachetteaudio for the ARC

#CantGetEnough #NetGalley

Can't Get Enough was absolutely amazing!!! Kudos to the author and the narrators of the story as they both did a fantastic job with the story. I absolutely loved Hendrix and Maverick from the very first beginning until the very end. Their chemistry was undeniable, and the narrators did such a fantastic job that I swear you could feel their need and desires from their words. There was never a dull moment in this story that was filled with great family, friends, community, support, challenges, hardships, heartfelt moments, laughs, steamy scenes, love and so much more. I haven't listened to or read the previous books in this series but after listening to this one, I now want to read/listen to the previous books in the series. However, I absolutely enjoyed this standalone story and it's one I will be recommending to my romance loving friends.

The last book in the Skyland series… I’m so sad to see you go but you ended with a banger. Hendrix was always my favorite of the group. She’s the outspoken, confident, plus size, child free Auntie. And in this book she meets goal oriented billionaire, Mav, and the chemistry is amazing immediately. Unfortunately, his ex has a lot of thoughts.

I got the 5⭐️ feeling just MINUTES into this one and that never changed throughout. I obviously enjoyed the main characters but the side characters and their journeys as well. I felt like the dementia rep in this book was really well done. It was sad of course but really sweet and handled with care. Hendrix was dealing with so much but handled everything so gracefully. And props to her because most of it would’ve made me so mean. I’d be screaming! This book could’ve been longer and I would’ve been fine with that but it did wrap up really nicely. I laughed, I cried, I have absolutely no notes or anything negative to say.

Since I received this book as an ALC, I need to comment on the narration. I really don’t think it could be improved much. I mean dual narration is always amazing but I know that’s hard to do. It may have been nice to see different narrators throughout the series to differentiate better but I really enjoy them. And I feel like they fit well for this book.

Thanks so so so much to Netgalley and Hachette Audio for the ALC of this book. :)

Another perfect romance from Kennedy Ryan. I’ve been for Hendrix’s book since she was introduced in Before I Let Go, and I was not disappointed. Kennedy Ryan perfectly manages to maintain the escapism that you get in a romance book, while still making it grounded in real life. I enjoyed the narrators but preferred the narrator for Hendrix over the one for Maverick.

4.5 stars rounded up

Kennedy Ryan always writes these romances that make me emotional! Can't Get Enough follows Hendrix, a Black woman entrepreneur & agent who is also caring for her mother who has dementia. Romance is not on her to-do list, until she meets Maverick, a Black business man who is almost a billionaire. But he's the recent ex of one of her clients, so despite the undeniable attraction, she really shouldn't... (we all know she does)

This is both very emotional AND very steamy! Things HAPPEN in some wild places! (like the coat room at a party) It's tackling some difficult subject matter, but is also an excellent romance I was rooting for them to be together. It features a couple that does not want children, which I know many people want to see more of, and references to attacks on programs to support Black entrepreneurs feel very timely. A great book and I definitely recommend it. Kennedy Ryan also has GREAT audio narrators! They killed it. I received an audio review copy via NetGalley, all opinions are my own.

I don’t know how I can forget how masterful a storyteller Kennedy Ryan is when her books scream women getting the loving they deserve. I have loved the Skyland series and this book is the perfect end-cap to the trilogy of three best friends who have found their happy ever afters. Hendrix is the perfect FMC for a Black Billionanire Surfer Daddy™️ book because she doesn’t need saving—she is forty, secure in herself and her work, and isn’t looking for Prince Charming. But damn if she doesn’t find him in Maverick. And for a billionaire, Mav sure does feel down to earth.

This book has insta-attraction, the spark that makes you curious, but keeps you on your toes and as getting together might mean pushing work and girl code, Hen is hesitant to jump in feet first. But Kennedy Ryan crossed every T and dotted every i making sure that her characters are aboveboard with starting a relationship. I loved that hard things happened in this book, because THAT’s LIFE, but Hendrix and Mac navigated them anyway, and more importantly together. A big part of Hen’s storyline is how she finds herself as the caregiver for a mother with Alzheimer’s and how that impacts her emotional journey. Kennedy Ryan beautifully portrays a mother daughter relationship that must navigate the changes brought on from the disease, and shows us how important community is to providing support and love.

I was so happy to read a book about grown adults who may not have everything figured out but are mature, funny, strong, hard-working people finding love when either of them least expects it. Hendrix and Maverick have amazing attraction and Kennedy Ryan knows how to write sensually explicit intimacy that is A+ as far as partners taking care of each other. It’s just hot y’all. I also loved the side romance with Bolt and Skipper (hilarious) and seeing previous couples and their children. Trust me, this is a grown-up romance you don’t want to miss out on for the vibrancy of life, the scorching sex, and the adeptly written prose.
Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem were perfectly cast as Hendrix and Maverick, and they also narrated Before I Let Go. I loved their dual narration and they both excellently portrayed the emotion needed from each character.I received an early copy from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Steam: 🪭🪭🪭.5️⃣

I am still crying over this book. Kennedy Ryan never misses, and Can’t Get Enough hit me deep. Her writing is so full of heart and truth, and the way she weaves in emotional depth while still keeping the romance front and center? Chef’s kiss. Hendrix’s story gutted me in the best way. As someone who’s the fun, independent auntie and also a caregiver for a loved one with dementia, her journey with her mother hit hard. I saw so much of myself in her. And Maverick? Whew, he was the perfect match. Supportive without trying to take over, constantly showing up without making her feel like she needed him to be whole. Just pure love and partnership.

And while Hen and Mav are absolutely endgame, one of the most beautiful parts of the Skyland series has always been the core sisterhood. Yasmen, Soledad, and Hendrix showing up for each other through heartbreaks, healing, and growth. Their friendship is the heart of this series, and watching them root for one another through every season of life made this story even more special.

I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy of the audiobook and let me tell you, Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem absolutely crushed it. The emotion, the chemistry, the flow, it all came through loud and clear. Every beat of this story felt intimate and immersive, and the production was smooth and seamless. Kennedy Ryan continues to show why she’s one of the best in the game, and this book is easily one of my top reads of the year.

Hendrix has been a fascinating character since the first book in this series, and this book is truly worthy of her. She's a great friend and also a strong Black woman who knows what she wants and works hard to achieve her goals. In this story she faces the toughest challenges of her life. Her mother is struggling with Alzheimer's and she's still being pressured to have children, but she never loses focus on her own goals, even when she meets an irresistible man who clashes with her business alliances and her public image is challenged.

All the characters in this series feel like real people dealing with huge life issues, and fighting to maintain their mental health. Even though this book is a little longer than most, I think it needs those extra pages to really get to the heart of the story. I really appreciate having a story about a women who stands up for her desire to remain childfree, and her discovery and descriptions of how it feels to have a true partner in life. The author's note is also very moving and informative, and explains how she based the story on a real life case.

Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem did a wonderful job of narrating the audiobook, they truly felt like actors in the movie of these characters' lives.

Y'all know how I say PUT IT IN YOUR FACE? Do it immediately. *SPOILERS*

I got an ALC from Netgalley (thank you to the Publisher!) and the audio narrators deserve whatever awards they give for making fictional characters feel so real I want to call Hendrix and check on her mom. I'll admit book 2 didn't hit me as hard, I actually found the friendship between the ladies to be so much YASS GIRL and I just wasn't in the mood for it but it seemed much more authentic and uplifting in book 3.

Having personal experience and a vested interest with Alzheimer's, I was curious how Ryan would handle this storyline and she didn't mess around. She kept it painfully real without turning it into tragedy porn. The moments when Hendrix's mom slips away then suddenly recognizes her are wrought with visceral emotion and so well performed.

Hendrix has been That Woman since book one, and Ryan gives her a story worthy of her crown. A successful Black woman holding it down professionally while caring for her mom and finding love. The balance felt authentic. I appreciated that Hendrix wasn't one of those women who pretend to refuse lavish gifts and heaps of love. She knows she deserves it.

Maverick proves to be the anti-billionaire billionaire. There's such a negative connotation toward them but Maverick is a different kind of very rich man. He actually supports his woman without trying to run her life and when it comes down to to it, he makes a choice that reflects his character. That's the kind of fictional man I can get behind.

The friendship between these three women remains everything. That sisterhood energy carries the entire series. Ryan tackles real issues including Alzheimer's, being childfree by choice, supporting Black women in business without it feeling like we're getting a TED talk in the middle of our romance. I also liked the "ripped from the headlines" feel with the storyline about Hendrix's fund, mirroring the Fearless Fund case.

Now. I have a nit (there is always a nit!) My only pause came with how quickly Hendrix and Maverick moved forward together, knowing Zere still had feelings for him and telling themselves they're all adults and she'll just get over with and they did nothing wrong... all the while not saying anything to her. Because they knew they were wrong! Their timing, especially on a day that was significant for her, had me questioning their choices. She had every right to be upset, I thought...until she started insulting Hendrix size and insinuating that Maverick wouldn't be interested.

Then I didn't care. Zere can get the hell on.

Anyway, I'd love for the Peacock adaptation to start filming *immediately*.

Just read the book. Kennedy Ryan delivers again with a story that's worth every minute of your time.

I was so excited to get into Hendrix's book after reading Yasmen and Soledad's stories. Hendrix is a driven, independent, caring, and generous woman who takes care of those in her life that she loves with her entire heart. Getting to see her fall for Maverick and let him into her heart had me melting. Maverick was everything she needed in a partner and watching him be strong enough to withstand her getting comfortable with leaning on someone was done so well.

The found family within the friendship has been one of my favorite parts of this series. At one point Hendrix discusses that she may have found Yasmen and Soledad later in life but that doesn't mean she won't hold on to them for the remaining years they have. Their friendship was everything and I loved how they all blended a helping hand in any way they could within each other's lives.

The storyline of Hendrix being a caretaker for her mom was done with so much respect and yet was still so raw that you felt as if you were in the room with them; it was such a deep insight to Hendrix.

I appreciate IMMENSELY the story of Hendrix staying childfree. I have read a few books where they "change" their mind once they are in a relationship, but Kennedy wrote her in such an authentic apologetic way that she stood by what she knew was right for her, no matter other's opinions. I saw a lot of myself in Hendrix with how she cares for others and struggles when she can't find a solution to an issue to help her loved ones but I saw myself reflected the most in this aspect of her life.

This was an emotional and raw story filled with so much platonic and romantic love. I adored getting to see the other two couples and the epilogue was a great conclusion to a great series. I think Hendrix's book is my favorite of the three. The narrators for the audiobook were FANTASTIC.

Kennedy Ryan and her writing is perfection. The audiobook was so well done. I wish I was friends with these fictional women. LOL. I love a good grown romance especially when the women are strong and independent. This was emotional and heart warming. No notes, an easy 5 stars. If she writes it I am definitely reading it.

Maverick said “let’s be good to each other”.
Hendrix is successful in her career, she has a great friend group, she’s branching out in other areas and she is happily child free. Life is happening to her and she is navigating a new norm with her family. When Maverick and Hendricks meet he is lured in by her joy, personality and curves. Not only do they have this instant chemistry they have similar interests and common life experiences. He applies pressure at the worst time but just like everything else Hendrix handles it well. What I appreciate most about this story is that they are both firm in their life’s choices and move accordingly and that Hendrix does not have to choose or sacrifice her new relationship while navigating being a caregiver. This is a story of romance, love, family, womanhood, and caregiving. This story is full and has a lot of moving parts and people and it does not overwhelm the romance which makes it a great read.
I listened to the audio narrated by the most awesome Wesleigh and Jakobi and they did a phenomenal job bringing these words to life.
I recommend this book.
