When I Had You, an all-new single dad, enemies to lovers, sports romance from New York Times bestselling author S.L. Scott is now available!

Cash Ryatt is a distraction.

It’s no secret the bad boy race car driver has built a reputation from two things. Winning and fu—front-page headlines. I’ve read he’s the best at both, but I have no intention of finding out firsthand.

I have my own plans, and they don’t include making the gossip sites as his next one-night stand. My three older brothers, his bosses, would never stand for it anyway.

So, how did I find myself daydreaming about the one man I’ve been forbidden from dating?

His mere proximity causes my heart to beat wildly in my chest.

My knees go weak when his eyes find mine across the track.

But it’s the way he kisses me as if the rest of the world doesn’t exist that has me falling into his playboy trap.

I finally surrender to temptation, but only for one night, and for the record, there was no standing involved except against a door that got in our way.

But no deed goes unpunished. No matter how good we are together. He’s given an ultimatum. Will he take his last chance to win the world championship or follow his heart and race back to me?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Marina Westcott, the baby of the family, finally gets her happily ever. Her forbidden romance with Cash, the hotshot driver of her brothers’ racing team, is full of drama and scandal mixed with hate-to-instalove.

Marina and Cash definitely get off on the wrong foot when they first meet. She is part owner of Westcott Racing, so there is that angle to their forbidden romance, but then her overprotective big brothers essentially ban her from the track and prohibit any relationship between Marina and Cash after an intense family dinner. But Marina’s personal life is a dumpster fire — her boyfriend and co-Star cheated on her — and she calls Cash when she finds herself in a jam. Like the white knight he is, this bad boy comes to her rescue. And a wonderful long-distance friendship begins.

I really liked the development of this relationship, and how Cash really saw Marina. She felt like she could be herself around him, and didn’t have to *act* like she did with the rest of the world. There is some drama involved with his son’s mother being a difficult co-parent, but that doesn’t impact their romance. However, when Cash’s career is on the line, some things are said that he later wishes he could take back.

While this wasn’t necessarily my favorite of the Westcott series, I did enjoy the ride as Cash and Marina quickly became everything to one another.

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
