Can’t Get Enough is everything I’ve come to expect from Kennedy Ryan—poetic, passionate, and profoundly human. From the very first page, the emotional depth pulls you in and doesn’t let go. This story isn’t just about romantic love; it’s about healing, second chances, and choosing yourself in the aftermath of life’s hardest seasons.

The characters are beautifully flawed and fully realized. The leading couple’s chemistry is undeniable, but what makes their connection so impactful is the honesty with which it’s written. They don’t just fall in love—they grow in love. Their struggles are real, their dialogue is emotionally charged yet grounded, and their healing feels hard-earned and deeply satisfying.

What stood out most is Kennedy Ryan’s ability to write love that makes space for grief, growth, and grace. She doesn’t shy away from the hard topics—parenting, past trauma, blended families—but she weaves them into the romance with such care and respect. The emotional pacing is masterful.

Can’t Get Enough is more than a romance; it’s a reminder that love doesn’t always come easy, but when it’s real, it’s worth every scar, every sacrifice, every vulnerable moment. This book will stay with me.

This was so good I barely even know where to start.

I absolutely loved listening to Hendrix's journey from the beginning to end. Hendrix was a BOSS in every way imaginable but this story told us that even the strong friend needs support and help too and that was Hendrix. The relationship between Hendrix and her mom was heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time because of what they were going through with her health but also when they had those breakthrough moments when it was just them and the way they were able to connect.

MAVERICK, MAVERICK, MAVERICK!!! I loved him soooo much for Hendrix. He was exactly what she needed in a man and more. Whenever she called Maverick showed up for her no matter what he had going on.

It was the Discovery and Negotiation phase for me!

The storytelling was absolutely amazing. Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem did a fantastic job.

Thank you Hatchette Audio and Netgalley for the ALC.

This book follows Hendrix, who’s thriving in her career, surrounded by amazing friends and family, and chasing big dreams. She has no time for love and hasn’t found the one among all the frogs… until Maverick Bell shows up.

Maverick did not come to play. He chased Hendrix like he was on a mission and wasn’t letting up. I honestly would’ve called the police 😂 He was intense, but it was captivating. Their messy, passionate situation kept me interested.

The spice? Wow! I felt like I was intruding reading some of those scenes 😅 Kennedy Ryan doesn’t hold back.

Beyond the heat, Kennedy tackles real issues too. Hendrix’s family is dealing with Alzheimer’s, and as a social worker, I witness how tough it can be. Kennedy handled it with so much care.

Seeing Soledad and Yasmen pop up had me grinning like I’d found old friends. I’m genuinely sad this trilogy is over.

Out of the three, this one didn’t have me rushing to pick it up like the others, but it still kept me reading. Before I Let Go still holds my heart.

I also wished Hendrix and Maverick’s relationship had a bit more depth, I felt like it mostly came from the sexual chemistry, and I wanted more emotional connection.

And those Top Boy references….Made me cringe (especially on audiobook 😂), which was otherwise amazing thanks to the narrators. They really brought the story to life for me, which I enjoyed.

I absolutely loved the dual narration by both narrators. I eat up every single Skyland book as an audiobook because it plays out like a movie. The tone, the inflection, the pacing. It's perfect. I would love to continue following audiobooks with their narration.

As for the story, unfortunately I didn't connect with it. The prologue was amazing and as I go deeper into the story, I didn't feel like Hendrix was the Hendrix I met in the Skyland series. I unfortunately DNF but I find this story could be great for readers who love a billionaire romance with a woman who holds her own.

Overall, I will still read and listen to any book/audiobook by Kennedy Ryan.

The description of this book is right up my alley, and I was so excited to listen to it! Unfortunately, it fell very flat for me, and I struggled to get invested into the characters. I did like how the storyline and the character life's touched on problems people struggle with every day. I also loved the cover and the narrators are great!

I loved this one! The characters were fantastic, excellent development throughout the story. I loved the way he was patient but persistent and willing to be in her life however she would have him. The chemistry was instant and intense. The romance was off the charts! He’s the everything women want in a life partner. And the complexity with their connection point played out in a very real way.

The way Kennedy Ryan also highlights some very real systemic issues was a statement on its own, but the author’s note was very poignant.

The audiobook was so well done. Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem delivered another stellar performance!

I absolutely loved Kennedy Ryan's Hoops series, and I've been dying to read more of her books and I've heard amazing things about this series.
Can't Get Enough, is emotional and raw. I loved Hendrix and how strong she was, she knew what she wanted and what to do to get it. Maverick is everything you would look for in a real life man/relationship. Supportive, respectful and emotionally mature. I loved these two together. They are perfect. I also loved the female friendship Hendrix had with her girls.
I really need to go back and read the rest of the series.
The narrators, Jakobi Diem and Wesleigh Siobhan did a brilliant job of bringing these characters to life. They really brought every emotion to the surface while listening to this book. They made each characters personality traits stand out.
Thank you to Netgalley and the author for the ALC!

Poignant and powerful contemporary romance, which works so well as an audiobook. The narration by Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem really drew me into the story and has me seeking out more of their work.

This story offers a mixture of laugh-out-loud moments, brilliant banter, fabulous friendships, family duty, as well as so many heartfelt and raw moments. Kennedy Ryan handles difficult topics with nuance and care.

“The right one won’t ask you to give up your dreams. They’ll care about them just as much as you do.”

With many thanks to Hachette Audio and NetGalley for an advanced listening copy of this heartwarming story, in exchange for an honest review.

Hendrix "Hen" has a great job in the entertainment industry and she currently repsents her friend as a model. While she's at an industry party she meets Maverick. He's tall, dark, and handsome. And Hendrix can't get him off her mind, even though he's currently in a relationship and she's not the kind of girl who steps out with someone else's man. In this book we also follow Hendrix as she navigates taking care of her mom who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. The care and thoughtful way Kennedy Ryan discusses the beautiful good days with Hendrix's mother and the heartbreaking bad days is what Kennedy Ryan does best, tuggs on your heartstrings. Kennedy navigates this topic with the utmost care and this is something that I appreciate about her writing. She always makes sure to get first person accounts of the subject matter she discusses in her books. It's this level of thoughtfully curated research that I've come to know from her novels. The narrators did such a great job handling the more heavy familial experiences and giving the words gravitis and grace. Not surprisingly Kennedy Ryan did it again, she gave us a romance where the female lead is a strong woman who meets a man that adds to her already established life. And the male lead is thoughtful and a smooth talker, telling Hendrix all the sweet and smutty things. 🌶️🥵
I really liked that Hendrix was vocal about choosing to live a childless life and how that isn't the only thing that defines her. Overall, this was a great ending to the amazing Skyland series.


Thank you NetGalley and Hachette Audio for the ARC copy in return for an honest review. ✨

This isn't really a surprise to anyone here. Most of you know l'm a @kennedyryan1 stan. I've loved every book l've read by her and this one is no different.
This book has Alzheimer's rep which is a first for me. & as someone who has seen first hand how this disease effects people and their family, it quite literally had me in my feels when reading.
I love Hendrix in the other books and was WAITING for her book. It did not disappoint. If you're looking for a book with a strong FMC who also happens to be plus size. This is the book for you
Beautiful writing, beautiful book. I loved how both Hendrix and Mavericks shared experience with Alzheimer's tied into their connection and story.
I highly reccomend reading and listening to the dual audiobook tandemly. Thank you @netgalley for both the ARC and ALC in exchange for my honest review.

We finally got Hendrix’s story—and yes, she is every bit the fierce, independent woman we’ve come to know in the earlier books. What I loved most is that it didn’t feel like I was being introduced to her; it felt like catching up with an old friend and discovering new layers. She’s deeply relatable, especially for readers who value their independence. Even when she enters a relationship with Maverick Bell—our smooth, charming mogul—she never loses herself. I loved that for her.

As for Hendrix and Maverick together? Genuinely sweet. I didn’t quite get the emotional punch that would’ve pushed this to a solid 5 stars for me—some of the early lavish gifts had me side-eyeing like 👀 is it giving love bombing? But as the story unfolds, their actions speak volumes. Their connection felt steady, intentional, and rooted in mutual respect.

Wow! This is my first Kennedy Ryan book and it won’t be my last. The way she writes characters is so real and authentic. I loved the way the relationship built between Hendrix and Maverick. The reality of aging parents is so real for many of us.

Another great read from Kennedy Ryan. I love she gives us adult mature relationships that have real life things going on. While I can't relate to the social circle of celebrities and billionaires, What I can relate to is loving your family and wanting to do the most for them. This book had me kicking up my heels for Hendrix and Maverick. The audiobook was absolutely amazing. The narrators brought this story to life and were sexy as hell.

Thank you to Hachette Audio for the opportunity to listen to this book.

Kennedy Ryan has done it again with Can’t Get Enough a deeply emotional, beautifully written love story that left me breathless. From the very first page, I was completely immersed in the raw vulnerability of the characters and the magnetic pull between them.

The chemistry between the leads isn’t just sizzling-it’s sacred. It’s rare to find a romance that balances sensuality with such powerful emotional depth. Kennedy Ryan doesn't just write love stories; she writes healing journeys that linger long after the final page.

The writing is lyrical, the pacing perfect, and the dialogue feels like eavesdropping on something intimate and real. But what sets this book apart is how Ryan explores grief, second chances, and emotional safety in a way that’s both honest and affirming.

If you’re looking for a romance that feels one that holds space for complexity, tenderness, and hard-won joy. Can’t Get Enough is a must-read. I couldn't put it down, and I already want to read it again.

Highly, highly recommend.

ALC Review: Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan
This was my first Kennedy Ryan audiobook and now I get the hype.

Let’s start with the audio:
Wesleigh Siobhan? Absolutely phenomenal. She embodied Hendrix: strong, vulnerable, determined. I could feel her heartbreak and her resilience coming through every line. Jakobi Diem’s narration? Smooth. Intentional. Controlled. His voice was like velvet and he brought a quiet strength to Maverick that made the emotions hit.

Now, about the story:
Hendrix Barry is a fierce, grounded and emotionally rich heroine. She is navigating caregiving, loss, her career and the impossible decision of choosing herself.
Maverick Bell - A solid male lead: driven and supportive. That said, I did wish we got a little more action or showing of his emotional depth vs just being told how deeply he felt. There were moments where Maverick’s arc felt under explored for me, given his past relationships. But, his pursuit of Hendrix was tender, patient and unrelenting. It was swoony in that quiet love kind of way.

For me, the strength of Hendrix’s character and the emotional beats of the story more than carried it through.

✨ You’ll love this if you enjoy:
Women in business leading with heart
Caregiving/mother-daughter dynamics
Emotional maturity in romance
Strong Black female leads owning their power
Top-tier narration that keeps you listening

4 stars

Truly fantastic book. This was my first experience with Kennedy Ryan and I love the dialogue, the flow, and the storytelling. I feel like many of my students can relate to the main character’s feistiness and independence. Thank you for sharing!

“Is that love expecting to become someone else for you? Foregone what makes that person happy to be with you?”

Can’t Get Enough was my first Kennedy Ryan book, and it definitely won’t be the last one. After a great introduction, I have to admit that I’ve got a bit worried that the story was turning into a pretty “classical” billionaire romance (which isn’t my thing –just a personal preference) BUT the author soon proved me wrong.
Little by little, stronger and deeper themes got the upper hand, weaving themselves into the story without ever becoming a “plot string”, as K.R. played with the usual romance beats and twisted them. It got me completely invested into Hendrix and Maverick’s story and was completely helped with both narrators who did a great job to personify both MC.
I loved how Hendrix was challenged by her professional, personal and love life, all at once. It helped her character’s growth, as much as it was a great way for the author to speak about Black entrepreneurs, taking care about a loved one slowly fading because of Alzheimer’s disease or deciding that having children wasn’t for her. It was very balanced, and always dealt with a lot of care and respect.
As I said, it took me time to appreciate Maverick, as at first his behavior is the typical billionaire, drowning his LI under expensive gifts. But his evolution got me, as he became more and more vulnerable and human. The more he opened to Hendrix, the more his attentions became intimate (and not grandiloquent), the more I liked him. I absolutely adored this ARC.
In the end, I was disappointed to “turn” the last pages and didn’t want to say goodbye to this story.

Thank you to the author, Forever and Hachette audio for the ALC on NetGalley. My opinions are my own.

4.5/5

The narrators were amazing! They brought so much emotion to every scene and made the story even more powerful. I was hooked the whole time!

This book has everything: Black girl magic, strong women doing their thing in business, and a sexy surfer single dad turned millionaire (yes, please!). I loved how the main woman doesn’t want kids of her own but still loves his daughter deeply it was so real and refreshing.

Hen’s mom struggling with Alzheimer’s was heartbreaking. That part hit hard, and the way it was written made me really feel everything the characters were going through.

I absolutely loved them the fact they weren’t super young and the community they shared her friends were so goals. Maverick is incredible the perfect man for Hendrix ❤️

Kennedy Ryan really knows how to write characters you care about. I want to read everything she’s written now!
