This Could Be Us) focuses on Hendrix Barry, the hardworking and glamorous friend of the women protagonists from the first two books. Hendrix finds herself falling for Maverick Bell, a billionaire businessman who has recently broken off his relationship with one of Hendrix’s colleagues. Neither of these 40-somethings is looking for a serious romantic relationship, but Hendrix and Maverick’s undeniable chemistry and the intense emotional connection they quickly forge are stronger than their will to remain apart. While navigating the thorny professional and personal ramifications of Maverick’s recent breakup, Hendrix is dealing with the realities of her mother’s worsening Alzheimer’s disease. Meanwhile, Maverick has to contend with a grieving father and a daughter who just graduated from high school. In addition to the strong attraction they share, these two driven, talented professionals bring to each other a peace and restfulness that doesn’t exist in any other part of their lives. Amid personal and professional upheaval, they nurture each other and their nascent relationship in ways they would previously have found unimaginable.
