Can't Get Enough of You

by Bette Ford

“Truly the mistress of romance. Ms. Ford knows how to turn up the heat.”

In Can’t Get Enough of You, perennial favorite Bette Ford revisits the group of friends she introduced in Unforgettable, and enthralls readers once more with a tale about the chances we take for love, and what we’re willing to risk for a second shot at happiness. Can’t Get Enough of You is a sizzling hot love story about a brilliant and beautiful professor who’s life is turned upside-down when the ex-love of her life, who once chose an NBA career over her, re-enters her world—and it reestablishes Bette Ford as a major force in African American romance fiction.

The female protagonist is so infuriating I almost stopped reading the book. It was a good story, but the mind set from Jenna just..... *breathe....breathe*👍🏾🔥👍🏾🔥👍🏾🔥👍🏾🔥

This was just okay. Jenna was WAY to uptight. Good grief! She GOT on my nerve more than half the time. I felt like Jenna was a bit immature. I got tired of hearing about how she accomplished everything by herself and how she was a success because of herself and so on and so forth. I thought that she stayed angry at Scott for way too long. I mean he was 19 years old when they were in love and she really didn't give him a chance to prove his love way back when. Leah (Lenna) would have gotten hurt at the first sign of a push up on my man! I didn't read the first book.

Famlly and love reunited

Loved Jenna and Scott's story. Jenna finding her sister and brother I guess couldn't all go smoothly but Leah was a piece of work. I enjoyed Lincoln and his family , also the foster sisters.

Finished this book in record time. I always enjoy Ms. Ford's novels and this one is just as good as the other's, save for When a Man Loves a Woman (becausr that's the best of them all). I remember Scott and Lenna from previous books; I love that she has brought these minor characters to the fore front and allowed them to have their own unique story.

Scott has come back home to keep his promise of completing college after retiring from the NBA and can't seem to get his life together. When Lenna returns to Detroit to teach at a local university, Scott suddendly knows why he's been at odds with his new life. Lenna is on a quest to find her lost family and Scott is on one of his own...to get Lenna back. Lots of family drama (something we all know something about).

Good book and worth the gritty eyes the morning after.

A very nice love story featuring main characters that met 10 years previously in college, only to be pulled apart by divergent goals. Both are African-American so have great determination to succeed in their chosen fields. In addition to the rocky romance at the center of the novel, there is also the problem with finding two siblings of the heroine--one is her identical twin--and finding a way to bring that family together and to re-weave the family unit that was broken twenty years earlier. There's lots going on in this book that is very thought-provoking and it is a worthy writing effort by Ms Ford.

[Kim · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was nice to see Donald and Taylor in this book after reading their story in After Dark. Now Taylors little brother Scott gets his second chance at love with his college sweetheart Jenna. Jenna's relentless search for her siblings finally paid off. Although Leah proved to be untrustworthy, she still reconnected with her and her big brother Lincoln. It took a tragedy to finally get Scott and Jennn back together,but better late then never.

[Acoleman · Rating 5 out of 5]

This books makes you believe that true love is possible even when things don't go as expected. Scott never truly gave his heart to anyone other than his first love. The book captures your joy and pain!

[L · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love the book but wished that I could have gotten more of their happy ending. A book two should be done

[Jen]

After one painfully overly dramatic paragraph, I'm done.
