3.5 stars

I enjoyed Can’t Get Enough more than book #2, but I wish a couple of storylines were explored more, especially the situation between Zere and Hendrix. The relationship between Hendrix and Maverick was sweet and I appreciated the care given to the Alzheimer's storyline. The narrators were okay, but I felt the gentleman reading Maverick's chapters had a drawl that was a little distracting and took me out of the story more than once.

Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan

"I caught her
She caught me,
And now, thank God, there’s no letting go."

The Skyland Series by Kennedy Ryan is one of my favorite series. Before I Let Go , the first in the series, is one of my favorite books EVER because my life was in a similar place as the couple. But the next two have come pretty close.

Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan is about Hendrix, the third friend in this amazing sisterhood. Hendrix is a beautiful, confident, curvy, professional talent manager and venture capitalist in Atlanta. She loves her life just how it is and loves being an Auntie to her friends’ kids, but she has no desire to have children herself.

Her mother is suffering from Alzheimer’s, and it’s a big part of the story. I had just read another book that heavily featured dementia, and it put me in a real funk. Honestly, I was hesitant to dive into another so soon, but I love Kennedy’s writing too much to wait.

Hendrix and Maverick’s connection is instant—but also forbidden. He had just broken up with Hendrix’s client, someone who could become a future partner and potential friend. Hendrix has an incredible group of women around her, and she knows girl code. She’s not going there.

At a fancy Miami party, Maverick—a tech billionaire—overheard an upsetting phone call Hendrix received about her mom. His grandfather had recently passed from the same disease, and they bonded over shared trauma.
“We are not magic,” she says.
“We are resilient. It’s not a wand. It’s work. We work harder and shine brighter to survive. Excellence for us has been a matter of necessity.”

Hendrix also told him about her venture capital fund for Black women entrepreneurs. So Maverick had a reason to stay in touch—with a mix of professional interest and personal pull. He pursued her by expressing interest in the fund and helping her navigate the challenges of dealing with Alzheimer’s. The chemistry between them was undeniable. But if she pursued a relationship with him, she could lose a professional opportunity she had dreamed of for years.

There was so much depth to this story, with multiple layers that each carried weight. Hendrix had to move in with her mom in South Carolina to care for her, and it was such a powerful blend of despair, frustration, love, family, and community.

The current political climate played a big role in the story too, and I really appreciate that Kennedy had the guts to include it in such a commercially successful series. This book tackles difficult topics but it was still a gripping and easy read. The emotional parts never overwhelmed the story because there was so much hope, romance, great friendships, and good-hearted people that kept it feeling grounded and real.
“I’ll do everything in my power to make sure you don’t regret choosing me and I’ll protect your dreams as fiercely as I chase my own.”

I loved Can’t Get Enough, but not quite as much as the previous two books. This one was messier. The relationship felt built on shared trauma and the fact that neither of them wanted kids. And it all happened pretty soon after his three-year relationship with her friend ended.

Likes:

•Kennedy’s writing weaves together so many different messy parts in romance, friendship, and careers.
•The amazing friend group.
•The Aspire Fund and all the drama surrounding it.
•They were HOT together.
•Hendrix is a badass boss bitch and I love her.
•It’s raw, real, and messy.
•Brought out every emotion.
•Though the Alzheimer’s storyline was tough to read, I felt more love and community than hopelessness.
•Seeing the women and great friendships from the earlier books.
•Older, more mature heroines with established careers.

Dislikes:

•My main dislike is the same as with the last book. All the characters—especially the MMC—are just too perfect. Maverick is a gorgeous billionaire who cares more about her career than his own, is smart, sexy as hell, and phenomenal in bed. He didn’t seem to have any flaws, and Kennedy usually does messy so well.
•I didn’t feel the emotional connection between them like I did in the other two.

The Narration:

Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem were phenomenal. I thought she seemed too young in the first book, but that could’ve been because I had already imagined a voice before listening. I loved both of them in this one.

The Down & Dirty:

Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan is another strong installment in the phenomenal Skyland Series. I loved Hendrix and her friends, and I really enjoyed reading about such a driven, confident woman. While I didn’t feel quite the same emotional connection or depth of romance as I did with the first two, I still loved being back in this world. As always, Kennedy writes stories that are as much about personal growth as they are about love. I’m sad to see the series end, but I’m already looking forward to whatever she writes next.

Rating: 4.5 Stars, 3 Heat, 5 Narration

This was the story I was looking forward to most in the series—and it *exceeded* every expectation. *Can’t Get Enough* is emotional, grown, and deeply satisfying. Hendrix Barry, a Black, plus-size, childfree-by-choice queen, rich Auntie vibes, is juggling career ambition and caregiving while protecting her peace—and I loved watching her let Maverick in.

Maverick Bell? Soft, swoony, billionaire who *falls first* and truly sees her. Their chemistry? Off the charts. (That coat closet scene?! 🥵)

Kennedy Ryan knows how to tug your heartstrings and still leave you full of joy. Hendrix got *everything* she deserved and more. 💖

I listened to this via audio and the dynamic voice acting duo Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem did not disappoint!!! They really are the narrator GOATS and did an amazing job bringing this story to life.

Thank you Forever (Grand Central Publishing) and Hachette Audio for the ALC and ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Kennedy Ryan is a masterclass in rip your heart out romances. Her books always have heavy life topics outside of the relationship the book is about and show life navigating those trials. I love her books and always ugly cry while reading them. Admittedly, this was probably my least favorite of this trilogy. It was not bad at all (my only gripe was a couple of cringey moments), the other books were just out of this world good.

Review of the narration specifically:

I thought the narration was incredible. The voice actors had great inflection and range. I enjoyed every second of both narrators and have nothing negative to say about them.

I received an ARC/ALC of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I simply couldn’t get enough of Can’t Get Enough! There is truly nothing like reading a book by Kennedy Ryan. It’s magical, heartwarming, and it surely hits you right in the feels.

Hendrix and Maverick are probably my favorite couple from Kennedy Ryan so far. These two are absolutely made for each other. Watching their love evolve into something so beautiful, literally put tears in my eyes. I felt so seen while reading this book. As a plus size woman who does not want children, I adored and appreciated reading this more than I could convey in words. With a lot of romance books it’s usually “expected” that the hero and heroine toward the end or at the end of the book end up having children, but this was such a breath of fresh air for me. I don’t mind reading those types of endings, but I feel like it’s not always needed. As always, the audio on this book was fantastic. Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem, did such a great job. Both of these narrators have such such beautiful voices, and they are so pleasant to listen to.

This was hands-down, my favorite book in this series. I always find that her stories are so easy to connect to this one really etched a special place in my heart. Highly recommend you read this book and this entire series. It is truly top-tier and this book is a top read for 2025!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There’s a lot to appreciate in this book, particularly the witty banter, cultural awareness, and underlying message about using one’s success to uplift the community. The dynamic between Maverick and Hendrix is undeniably steamy, with their chemistry heightened by bold conversations and unapologetic sexual tension. Hendrix’s strength stands out—her ability to assert her desires without conforming to societal expectations adds a refreshing layer to her character. The emphasis on family, especially from Hendrix’s side, gives the story additional heart, and themes such as Alzheimer’s and the choice not to have children offer meaningful glimpses into their personal values. The audiobook performance further enhances the experience, bringing the humor and energy of the dialogue to life. While this book is part of a series, it reads well as a standalone—no prior knowledge is needed to follow or enjoy the story.

However, while the book excels in creating an enticing atmosphere and vibrant characters, it falls short when it comes to emotional depth between the leads. The relationship feels more rooted in lust than love, and beyond their physical connection and a few shared life challenges, the bond between Maverick and Hendrix lacks the development needed for a fully satisfying romance arc. As a steamy, character-driven escape, this story delivers—but those seeking a deeper romantic journey may find it emotionally underwhelming. Still, it’s a fun and entertaining listen, and I’d recommend it with adjusted expectations.

Absolutely loved the audio for the whole series! Really good at following and making it feel like the characters are telling a story! Loved this book!!!

LORD! WHERE IS MY MAVERICK??!?

Whew! what a beautiful way to end this series. Kennedy is top 2 and not 2! I love how she decided to keep things opened ended in regard to both of their business situation. This book had me giggling and blushing at their love story. I relate so heavy to Hendrix and her thoughts around being childless and single. Hendrix always cares for and overextends herself to others, and now that is finally given to her. I shouldn't have read this book bc now i'm even more delusional and optimistic about love than before :)

Thank you Netgalley and Hachette Audio for the ALC! This was a treat!!

Absolutely stunning. Kennedy Ryan’s writing is incredible—emotional, powerful, and beautifully layered. From the very first page (and minute of the audiobook), I was hooked. The narration was phenomenal and brought the characters to life in such a real, emotional way—it made the experience even more immersive and unforgettable.

The connection between Hendrix and Maverick was everything. Their story felt so authentic as they navigated both personal wounds and professional obstacles together. I loved how strong Hendrix is, how she never dimmed herself, and how her girlfriends always rallied behind her. That kind of fierce female friendship just made the story even richer.

I couldn’t stop listening or reading—this one completely consumed me. Easily one of my favorites from Kennedy Ryan.

I think this was probably my least favorite so far in this series, but it was still a four star read. I thought Hendrix was a great character and very likable. I think I probably just related to her the least. While I respect a decision for a woman to not want kids, for *me* it was hard to relate to. However, that wasn’t a detriment to my enjoyment. Maybe it was the insta-lust? Also, the ex-girlfriend/client being so bent out of shape was crazy. It might be realistic, but it was maddening as a reader—especially since she was traveling the world with her new boyfriend.

Aside from it not being my favorite, I enjoyed Hendrix learning about her mom’s declining health and all the struggle and sadness in that. Mav being able to relate to her was so sweet and reassuring.

I also loved our old friends from the previous books being back.

Thanks to NetGalley for the copy. The audio was delightful—I love the voices of the readers.

Personal note: my arm is currently in a cast, so I can’t type on my computer like normal, so this review is more disjointed than it would be.

This was such an unexpected gem for me! When I applied for the ARC audiobook, I genuinely didn’t think I’d be selected but I’m so glad I was. From the very beginning, the narrators drew me in. It felt like I was listening to a close friend share her heart, which made the story hit even deeper. It also had me cracking up!

The storytelling? Powerful. There’s so much to unpack! Grief, family illness, the strength it takes to navigate life’s hardest moments, and the complex beauty of female friendships. On top of that, Kennedy Ryan doesn’t shy away from showing how systems are built to work against women, especially Black women and she handles it with such care and conviction.

Fair warning: do not wear a face mask while reading or listening unless you're okay with it melting off from tears. This book got me good. And the best part? The way Black characters are portrayed with strength, softness, and light. It felt honest, affirming, and necessary.

Will I read more from Kennedy Ryan? Absolutely. This won’t be my last.

Cant get enough is another angsty love between two adults that have experienced hardship. At this point I know that Kennedy Ryan books will just hit hard in all aspects! The MCs bond over the mental health issues of older parents whilst fighting off attraction to each other. This was a captivating listen, whilst also tugging on my heartstrings. I'm really glad there was no cheating in this one! The side character girl group was amazing and really made those sense so much fun to read. The tension between the two MC was hot!
Love the narrator for this audiobook and she made it so enjoyable to listen to.
Thanks to Hachette audio and Netgalley for an ALC!

This book was beautifully written! Every chapter of this book held my attention and I didn't want to put it down. Much less I did't want the story to end. I love the Skyland series and have enjoyed each book in the series. The relationship between these three friends is beautiful and reminds me of many of my friendships. I loved the relationship between Hendrix and her mother and watching her navigate Alzheimers. Their relationship the ups and downs of being a daugher of aging parent was really touching. I adored Maverick and is unwavering pursuit of Hendrix was refreshing. Seeing her be loved unapologetically was amazing. The narration of the book was superb! My favorite narrators never disappoint and the absolutely brought the story to life!

3.5 stars rounded up.

I'm a bit torn with this one. Really loved both of the leads, enjoyed the dual POV of understanding their intentions, feelings, motivations, etc, and was so pleasantly surprised to hear Wesleigh Siobhan & Jakobi Diem duo narrating together!! I loved their co-narrations on other romances and am so happy they're continuing to work together!

So. Many great things in this book. Many many great little moments and elements. I'm surprised to say that I didn't hate the billionaire hero. Good for him. Also this didn't try to make him seem like a good billionaire, he just was a good human at his core. His money went towards uplifting the Black community and that was awesome. The heroine didn't change her morals or beliefs for him, and I loved seeing a child free by choice and without remorse character. Also hellz yeah for big body representation, using all the sex toys and lube needed, and a romance with leads over 40.

Things I noted down that I loved:
- Waffle house date
- Side plot of both assistants hate fucking each other and their chemistry
- Fucking in a closet and almost getting caught, gasp!
- Mom and heroine scene in the hospital had me in tears
- Apparently I'm actually ok with the extremely wealthy wasting money and ruining the environment with frivolous jet trips just to make sure the heroine is ok and cared for. She does deserve it.
- So many roses
- Their pet names
- Found family the heroine has with her group of girl friends that have her back.

The part I'm torn on is this not feeling like a romance, and veering more into the fiction with a romantic subplot side of things. I'm not the most familiar with this author, and thought the plot was deeply developed, it just kind of took over the romance elements. Caring for a parent with Alzheimer's, grief of losing loved ones, moving back home, class action lawsuits, bitter exes and work drama. There was so much plot happening, that the romance took more to the back-burner after a while. And it's great seeing established and mature couples, but also I want the romance lol. At about the 80% mark, this started to feel looooong.

If this was a fiction, it'd be 4.5 stars, maybe 5. For romance, this fell a little flat and I'm really bummed about that!

Absolutely! Here’s a revised version of your review that includes a bit more about the story:

5/5 stars

I listened to Can’t Get Enough on audiobook and was completely hooked. The narration brought so much emotion to the story—Kennedy Ryan knows how to write characters you feel deep in your chest. Beautiful, heartbreaking, and healing all at once. I didn’t want it to end.

The story follows Hendrix Barry, a successful entertainment entrepreneur juggling her thriving career and caring for her mother, who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Enter Maverick Bell, a tech mogul whose charm and understanding nature make him hard to resist—even though he’s involved with Hendrix’s colleague. Their connection is immediate and intense, leading Hendrix to question the boundaries she’s set for herself.  

Kennedy Ryan masterfully blends themes of love, sacrifice, and self-reliance, creating a narrative that’s both deeply personal and universally relatable. The audiobook’s narration enhances the experience, making the characters’ emotions and struggles feel incredibly real.

This book is a poignant exploration of finding happiness amidst life’s challenges. It’s a story that stays with you long after it ends. 

The anticipation of waiting for Can't Get Enough to release was pure agony. It was definitely one of my most anticipated reads of 2025. The Skyland series quickly became a favourite and Can't Get Enough was an exceptional addition.

Hendrix has been from the beginning a character that I needed to learn more about. She's a fierce female, a loyal friend and would do anything for those she loves. Seeing her grow and change was such a phenomenal experience.

I listened to the audio book and let me tell you that was an absolute treat.

**Received audio book ARC through NetGalley. Voluntarily reviewed.**

This book was absolutely beautiful. What I did not expect was to fall more in love with Mav than I did with Hendrix. Their story is beautiful and allows you to build love for both of them. Hendrix is a reminder of you can be happy and get everything you want without settling, and Mav is the perfect example of a man. Definitely one of my favorite reads.

This was my first Kennedy Ryan book and I’ve 100% been missing out! I listened to the audiobook and it made me SO glad I have a signed copy of this book on my shelves 😍

The audiobook was the way to go. Both narrators did such an amazing job; when Hendrix was talking to her friends I was cackling at their convos. Highly recommend!!

Hendrix is a boss babe and Maverick is a billionaire with a heart of gold. They were able to bond over some really heavy experiences and it only solidified their relationship in the end. Maverick was sooo patient and understanding of the hard time Hendrix was going through; he was the sweetest. I really felt for Hendrix and the waters she had to navigate, but I loved that she had the best community to depend on.

I loved it! As I knew I would. Kennedy Ryan did an amazing job with this series. Yes, there is romance and steamy exchanges, but there are real life issues and challenges that make this series so relatable and not as fantastical as other romance novels. And the research she does for these books is impeccable. sad this series is over.. excited for what Is to come next! excellent narration as always!

Kennedy Ryan does it again with Can’t Get Enough—a beautifully written, emotionally rich romance that balances passion with real-life depth. The characters are layered, the chemistry is undeniable, and the themes of healing and second chances hit hard in the best way. A few pacing hiccups kept it from being a perfect 5, but overall, this was a deeply satisfying and heartfelt read
