Can't get enough

Raw emotion and unfettered sensuality animate bestseller Ryan's intoxicating third Skyland romance (after This Could Be Us). Ambitious, fiercely independent businesswoman Hendrix Barry's star is on the rise: she has a successful career as a talent manager, she's passionate about her new venture capital firm that supports Black women--owned businesses, and she's about to embark on a new adventure as a television producer. In the midst of all this success, however, comes hardship when her mother is diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Caring for her leaves little time for romance. Besides, the only man Hendrix is interested in is Maverick Bell, a member of the "tiny exclusive club of Black billionaires"--and he's strictly off-limits. The pair feel a mutual spark from their very first meeting at a party, but Maverick is "practically engaged" to Hendrix's new producing partner, and she's not about to go after someone else's man. Maverick, however, lives for the thrill of the chase and has no such qualms about pursuing Hendrix. The pair bond as he helps her navigate her mother's care and supports her through a devastating threat to her venture capital firm. Ryan's ability to blend steamy forbidden romance, complicated family dynamics, strong female friendships, and frank explorations of misogynoir remains unparalleled. This is an author at the very top of her game. (May)
