As August winds down and we hold on to the last golden days of summer, the Black Women Connect Book Club is diving into a story that pulses with ambition, desire, and heart. This month’s pick is Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan—an emotionally rich, fiercely romantic novel about chasing success, honoring family, and risking everything for a love that just might be worth it.
About the Book
“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, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Hendrix Barry is living the dream. She’s got the friends, the family, the career, and the kind of life most only imagine on vision boards. But behind the scenes, she’s also managing the heavy responsibility of caring for her aging parent—leaving little room for anything (or anyone) else.
Romance? Low return on investment. Until Maverick Bell.
Maverick is a tech mogul with sharp suits, dangerous charm, and a gaze that sees right through her. From the moment they lock eyes at the summer’s hottest party, Hendrix feels the pull—but Maverick is the one man she knows she shouldn’t fall for.
Still, he’s relentless. Attentive. Kind. Irresistible.
And maybe, just maybe, it’s time Hendrix let herself want something more.
