"Can't Get Enough balances brutal emotion, whip-smart humor, and delicious spice. Moving, romantic, and thrumming with life, this is Ryan's best work yet." ―Talia Hibbert
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 yet: caring for an aging parent. Who has time for romance? From her experience, there's a low ROI on relationships. Anyway, she hasn't met the man who can keep up with her. 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, 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?
“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
“One of the finest romance writers of our age.” –Entertainment Weekly
Review
Kennedy Ryan’s new Skyland novel hits different. In Can’t Get Enough, she gives us Hendrix – brilliant, stubborn, and stretched thin between her sky-high career goals and taking care of her sick grandmother. Enter Maverick, a self-made billionaire who makes her wonder if she can actually have it all. Spoiler: life’s not that simple.
What makes this book stick with you isn’t just the sizzling chemistry (though trust me, it’s there). It’s how Ryan writes about the raw, unglamorous parts of love – the 3 AM hospital visits, the missed opportunities, the choices that keep you up at night. She gets that love isn’t just about the butterflies; it’s about showing up when things get hard.
The characters feel like people you know. Hendrix isn’t some perfect romance heroine – she’s messy, she makes mistakes, and sometimes she’s too proud for her own good. Maverick’s billions don’t shield him from his own demons. Their relationship builds like a slow-burning playlist, full of sharp dialogue and moments that’ll make your heart squeeze.
Ryan writes about family obligations and Black excellence without turning them into after-school special topics. Instead, they’re woven naturally into a story that’s both achingly real and hopeful enough to make you believe in love again.
Fair warning: this isn’t your light beach read. Ryan goes deep, and she’ll drag your emotions through the wringer. But if you’re ready for a romance that’s more than just stolen kisses and happily-ever-afters, Can’t Get Enough delivers. It’s messy, beautiful, and impossible to put down – just like love itself.
Perfect for readers who like their romance with a side of real life, and who don’t mind ugly-crying into their wine glass at least once per chapter. Definitely one of 2025’s best.
